I started the course but had so many glitches in their system. It ended up not getting resolved and I was so frustrated I decided to stop the course. I told them. Yet they continue to invoice me that I owe them. Email after email even though I told them.

They’re just interested in money.

As I got to the end of my course expiry date I noticed that the time taken to mark assignments has taken well over the stipulated time frame. I had to submit one assignment 3 times before I passed. The feedback given each time could all have been given to me after my first submission but it seemed like a delay tactic to force me to extend my course. It eventually took one month for one assignment to be finalised. This placed pressure on me which promoted me us more information from the internet on my next assignment. I submitted and was told that due to plagarism I needed to write the assignment in my own words and resubmit. I was also advised on his assignment that if I had to resubmit again I would be charged. The assignment was returned stating that I now needed to change the activities because I can’t just copy activities. This is something the tutor could have indicated in the first feedback but it seems they wanted to not pass me the next time so I would have to pay a retake fee.

And this is my next issue. On the previous assignment I submitted 3 times with no issues. Now I was told that I have to pay because this is my 3rd of 4 allowed attempts. When I enquired I was told that the rule changed in Oct 2023 and I was sent an email. I asked for proof of the email because I did not hear of this before and I was told the message is automated so there is not proof. I asked for an explanation as to why 3 submissions were allowed in the previous assignment with no charge and I was asked to speak to the tutor. They just change the rule, there is no evidence of advising me and I was not penalized before but now that I am close to the end it seems that these are tactics to exploit me for more money.

Pathetic. I will not be wasting another cent on this stupid institute. I will stop where I am and accept the certificate that I get. Judging by other comments here, I may even get the the certificate.

I do not recommend i-to-i. Bunch of thieves trying to exploit students and drain as much money from them as possible.

I passed the course at the end of last year, 2023, and I ordered a hard copy certificate at the beginning of January 2024 and seven weeks later I have still not arrived it.

Twice, I have been told it will be sent, but still no certificate.

I’m beginning to believe this is a scam.

Until this point, I found them ok. I did not feel they were intentionally trying to drag the course out as I passed all assignments within 2 to 3 attempts & they were marked very promptly.

However, their reluctance to send my certificate makes me question the company’s motives.

Originally I was very impressed with customer service, however, my last few assignments took weeks to be marked instead of the 5 days I was promised. Having submitted last year, I only received feedback weeks into 2024. I have now decided to shorten my course and requested the certificates for the courses I have completed but have not heard anything from anyone regarding this. I keep being told that someone will contact me however I have heard nothing about this. The plan was to start working in 2024, but with the extremely slow feedback rate and no one assisting me with receiving my certificates for my passed courses – this is now impossible.

I’m beginning to wonder if the education provider is legitimate. Apparently, I have fulfilled every requirements and I double checked my work and assignments with a senior English teacher currently based in Bangkok.

But the school almost always find the slightest of mistake that has zero relevance to the gist of the assignment, which in my opinion I have executed fairly well.

This leaves me in awe and speechless after numerous repeated payments of “retake fees”. So much so, I am forced to abandon the course before they milk every penny from me.

Highly not recommended.
