I signed my son up for tae kwon doe lesions. Then he broke his leg before he started. I called the school and told them but they processed my application anyway. Then they reported no payment to Trans Union. If I knew that they had filled the application anyway I would have paid.
When my son was all healed up I went into talk to them because he still wanted the lessons. I was told I would be credited for the year he missed if I paid my payments. So I paid the bank holding the contract in full in one payment. This paid for a three year course.
Then 1 year from the day I paid them they said my contract was over and I would have to pay for another three years if my son was to still attend. I asked them what happened to my other 2 years and they said you signed a contract and that contract is over.
This bad payment is still on my credit report. If I knew he was not going to get three years of schooling I never would have paid the $1600.00. So he got one year of schooling for the 3 year price. We don't have another $1600.00 to pay them for them to steal. My poor son put in all that hard work for nothing. To be lied to by an immoral person!! This is wrong!!

hello. i read this and this appears to me to be a typical mcDojo or "black belt factory" where they charge crazy fees and have contracts and teach next to nothing.
check out this website: http://bullshido.com
They have lots of information to combat martial arts fraud. in general, the best schools don't have contracts (they do a month-to month thing)or if they do have contracts, they are easy to get out of with little fees and almost always a refund. any dojo who causes a hassle like what you are describing is a mcDojo and you are better off having your kids going to a different school altogether, before they are taught something incorrectly and are not able to defend themselves should that situation arise(if self-defense is the goal).
good luck
