      We contacted The ********* ****** on 12/23/22 to enroll our twin children in their SAT preparation program.We then paid a deposit using our bank debit card of $1,720. However within an hour we were advised against using The ********* ****** and called the service back to state that we would like to cancel.The transaction was cancelled immediately as we never signed a contract and we told we would get our refund in 5-7 business days.We have called The ********* ****** countless times : first they said our bank refused the refund so I put them on the three way call with the bank and this was not true. Indeed a bank cannot refuse deposit of their customer's own money but ********************** ran with this deceptive narrative for weeks.Finally on 1/11/23 I was able to speak with someone who stated they were sending us an urgent check in the morning.As of today, we have not received our money back.

      The customer asked for a refund and when processing this back onto the original form of payment it was declined. This is unusual. We did join a call with the customer and a rep from their bank. The bank rep confirmed that they were not accepting the refund and this was with the customer on the same phone call. At the request of the customer we tried several more times to issue a refund and it failed. The next step was for The ********* ****** to issue a paper check which takes at least 3 weeks. Weve rushed this where we could and the check is being mailed to the customer this week. Weve also sent the customer an image of the check for confirmation.

BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation.
