I blame myself for not googling the reviews on this company. So glad that I just let the video play and really didn't pay any attention to it. The test was very easy and that was no problem. When I went to certified the certificate, it wouldn't go through, that's when I knew that this place was not legit then when I went online and saw the reviews I knew that I messed up my husband did the AARP defensive driving course and it was half of what I paid for this one. I will be getting my money back from my bank after it comes out of the pending state; they need to be stopped.
I got charged for this course before I ever clicked complete purchase or anything. When i saw they charged $30 to get an email of your certificate I chose to do Aceable instead. Got charged for the course, never got an email saying I got charged. Sent them an email about it and they didn't respond, called today and spoke to Lucette who was very rude. Interrupting me the whole call and practically yelling at me by the end of it.
At end of all 14 Chapters, you must re-enter. EVERY TIME it tells me I've given WRONG answer( but NOT!). After 8 chapters, I've wasted MORE THAN 1HR re-entering. Whole weekend, still not finished! Don't BUY!
I wish I had come to this site prior to signing up with these jokers.
* Have to opt out of $39.95 email certificate delivery and a bunch of other scammy offers about a dozen times—once at the beginning of the course and then had to click through about six screens confirming that I *really* wanted USPS delivery despite how bad they say the post office is. These options are not displayed until after you've already paid the initial $25.
* Most of the material is from 2013.
I'm sure there are better options out there. If I need another course I will shop around.
The course itself was fine, nothing special really. I had issues receiving my certificate in the mail, paid $34.95 on top of the original $25 for the course to receive next day shipping. Did not get my certificate until 5 days later! Not only that but their customer service was HORRIBLE. Completely useless and RUDE.
As stated by others, this "company" lies about costs. After you spend 4 hours working, it costs you another $29 for an EMAIL of your certificate! Then they try to charge for dumb services like a text notification of completion. $15 bucks, then hit next "oh how about $7?, hit next again "oh now it's only $5. That just proves they're liars that didn't have to try and charge you $15.
They lie on their site and say that Allstate accepts their certificate. This is not true! I wasted 6 hours taking that course! I complained and did get a refund, but I wasted my time for nothing! That is FALSE ADVERTISING! Plus they signed me up for AUTOMATIC PAYMENTS without my permission! I opened a case through paypal to get my refund.
Start by saying it's a low cost course, (which it is at $5.95) then hit you with cost after cost. For example $29. To email certificate, then another $15. Times 2 to notify the organizations that need copies. There were other costs if you aren't very careful and turn them down. So frustrating and it seems to me deceptive.
They advertize a $25 course. AFTER you've provided your credit card number they tell you they need another $29.95 for their server to email you your certificate of completion. You don't find out about the additional $29.95 charge until AFTER you've made your $25.00 purchase.
It's shady as hell, even if it technically isn't illegal. Use someone else who is upfront with their charges.
This driving school sent unsolicited mail to my address without my consent. What's worse is that they do not conceal the contents of the message, and in this case, another person living at my residence picked up the mail and read TRAFFIC CITATION INFORMATION in BIG BOLD FONT as well as the details of "Careless Driving." I will go out of my way to avoid this traffic school and I will use someone else.
