College Of Technology
Nancy April 3, 2009
I attended ECPI back in 2003. When I enrolled and started my classes I was told that my student loans, financial aid, and pell grant would take care of the cost of everything. I was told I only had to worry about repayment 6 months after graduating. I had a GPA of 4.0 and I thought I was well on my way to starting a brighter future for myself. To my surprise, one and a half semesters later, I was called in the financial aid office and told I would need approximately $3, 000 more to be able to continue my classes there. At that time I told them... read full review »

The Wedding Planning Institute
Nika April 3, 2009
I took the first 2 classes in their wedding planner certification course. After signing up for the third I found a link to buy their study guide book on lulu.com. After checking out the first few pages of the book on this site I realized that the classes are simply the $125 book divided into chapters and charged 50-150 bucks to take. The book even has every chapter (classes) assignments in it as well. There is absolutely no difference between their classes and the book except the requirement that you take every class online before you can... read full review »

Devry and Chamberlain
MAD AS HECK April 3, 2009
Devry ownes Chamberlain School of Nursing. I wish I'd known what I know today, which is that they are the same school and that they both have a bad reputation for treating their students like dirt. They are only concerned with making a profit by enrolling as many students as they can, but they have horrible customer service, are unprofessional, and the departments do not communicate among each other. Because of the lack of communication, they will mess up your financial aid and other important resouces needed to pursue an education and... read full review »

Rapid Reading Institute
Harry April 1, 2009
I ordered a trial rapid reading cd. I was given an extended trial because by the time I received the item, the trial would have been over. I returned the item on March 3, 2009 via the USPS. I received a charge on my account on March 28, of $69.00. Tanya, an uneducated sounding sales person answered the phone. She refused to help me, and would not check with her warehouse to track the package. She then, would not let me speak with her superiors. I have info from the Post office saying this company has received the package at least a week ago. read full review »

GC Services Collection
Billy March 31, 2009
I have been working with Sallie Mae Students loans for quite some time regarding a student loan. I have had to get extensions and forbearance requests a few times due to a divorce and loss of job, etc. At some point, my account was turned over to this GC Services. I have NEVER been treated so rudely or so disrespectfully in my life. I was made to feel like I was the lowest scum of the earth that had no interest in paying my debts. That is just totally untrue. But I cannot pay back more than I can afford. I was threatened with... read full review »

It started out when i was a sophomore in Highschool when i got a letter in the mail inviting me and my parents to a presentation in a hotel regarding affording college. Well we got there and were enlightened of some things; like the cost of college and many other things. Well they advertised how they would help us along the years of highschool by offering tips and sending current scholarships, but the main thing they offered is that they would even file our FAFSA my senior year.

I am a former teacher of Amadeus Home Music School and I just found out that they go under a different name of Allegro Home Music School as well. I have not been paid for a month and I had no choice but to quit. I am owed $620.00 with the possibility of it being $1, 020.00 if the two checks I deposited to my bank account bounce.

So out of all the qualified candidates we had today, why do you think we should hire you? I guess everyone must get scammed once in their life to realize that there are people out there willing to do anything to be on top. I worked at this awful job for almost three months, and in those 90 days I managed to get behind on bills, friends, and family. Life before this job was not the best thing in the world I mean the economy is still pretty bad, but just think while you are striving to put gas in your car to go to the ridiculous places that... read full review »

A Southern Oregon University student that worked at the Ashland Albertsons super market, her name was Teddi and she was from Arcata, began hurassing me one day because I was from Los Angeles. It appears she ran a gang at the market. I made the mistake of telling someone I would be graduating soon. She approaced me and told me she would stop me from graduating.

The SAT and ACT Prep Center Inc.
jfisch March 23, 2009
They called my wife and convinced her to give them our credit card saying that we had to sign up for this for our son to take SATs. She thought it was the college board. They charged us $119. I went online and found the tel. number the next day. They did answer and assured me that they would refund my money. Never happened. I called them a total of 5 times and each time they insisted they would take care of it. After several weeks, the CD showed up. I went online and found the same CD for $10.95. This company needs to be investigated by the Attorney General. read full review »

Picasso Home Art School
Gus March 20, 2009
I have been an art teacher with Picasso Home Art School for more than a year. Payments to me have always been late and required continued correspondence. But, now, I have been led to believe that no further payments will be forthcoming. Plus, Picasso has tapped one of my student's for an additional $1, 000.00 without authorization after the initial contract period was scheduled to be over. It seems to me that the company is going downhill and becoming ruthless or utterly incompetent in the process. read full review »

Do NOT buy SAT prep product from this company. First of all, they tell you that your child expressed an interest in it but the kids know nothing about it. Second, it has KAPLAN printed on product, but they are not affiliated with Kaplan, they merely buy Kaplan's product (for approx $30 and turn around and sell it for $119) It come with a full return if not satisifed, however it is Impossible to contact them for an RA#. You are put on hold endless hours, told they will call you back, which they will not do. I had to cancel my CC finally after much aggravation. I am returning product, but from what I have heard, a return is never credited. read full review »
