IERF International Education Research Foundation, Inc misrepresentation, false advertising, charging and then refusing service Culver City, California

Before engaging IERF, I called and wrote and was provided with information that made it clear that they intended on performing the evaluation with the documents I had to offer and that they had evaluated the same university prior..

I then sent IERF the legal documents I received from my university in England (founded about 115 years ago, has 10,000 students and received their Royal Charter in 1966). These documents attest and certify my degree and my grades.

I sent them directly since IERF said they do not require they be sent directly from the university. This was reiterated in a phone call with the director and several times in email.  

IERF received my application and charged me $205. IERF then decided that they would determine what is legal in the UK and decided after the fact not accept the documents I sent.

IERF has also stated that they are recognised by the Attorney General and the Department of Education as credential evaluators. Both the Attorney General and the DoE state explicitly that they do not recognise any agency as a credential evaluator and these matters are handled entirely by the state, the institution or the employer.

Meanwhile, they refuse to carry out the evaluation and they have charged me 205$.
