I recently attended a Landmark forum. After two hours the leader asked if there is anyone NOT open to changes to stand up. I stood up and commented that I was open to change but would have a hard time sitting there for three days in that same chair.

She told me to please leave the room and that I would get a full refund. Mind you I took off the day to do this so it was not something I was happy about. I aked one of the supervisors in the back of the room, and he told me in 5 days my credit card should reflect the reimbursement. I had called my credit card company for a dispute, but still, two weeks later and Landmark Education has not honnored their word.

Anyone trying to do business with them, be aware. I recommend you save the $430 and read a book: your best life now, in combination with the bible which may give you eternal blessings...

My experience with Landmark

AUTHOR: PhotoLove - (United States of America)

POSTED: Monday, June 20, 2011

Carlos, I am sorry that you had that experience.  I personally took the Forum and decided to get out because of somewhat the same reason, I didn't think I could go through with it so I got up and left.  I had no problems getting my refund within a week or so (it's been a while).  That really surprised me to hear you had a problem getting your refund processed.  I noticed it was 2 weeks after the course that you wrote your complaint, so I'm hoping that you did indeed get your refund and it wasn't much longer after that.  

To the person that commented about the money the company makes.  Landmark Education is a "for" profit company that provides an educational service.  I'm not sure why people assume there is something "fishy" about them because they make "50 million a year".  It's no different than a University/College system; they charge to teach.  I suppose people assume that because the Landmark teaches you a better way to live your life, that they should not make money, which is kind of silly.  

I did finally complete the course after randomly meeting (yet another) person who had a wonderful experience through Landmark so I decided to sign-up again.  I ended up going through with it, and absolutely loved it. I can't say that my life has changed completely, but there is no question that I have made significant strides in areas of my life which I had felt paralyzed in prior to my taking the Forum. As a result, other areas of my life have also been transformed, and through that I have been able to make a positive impact on several peoples lives which was probably the best part for me.   I hope this helps someone who is on the fence about taking the course due to the original comment.   

Carlos, i hope you have since found other means of transformation in your life, and that they have produced wonderful results for you.  Best of luck to you.

I see they could not teach you how to spell Eric. If Landmark Education really are an ethical cause; what do they do with the $50+ millions they make each year?

Something smells a bit here. I feel sorry for all the people who get brain washed.

Landmark makes it very clear that it dose not give refunds.

Landmark dose not offer refunds for the forum witch I am guessing you where registered in. The reason for this is to make shere people how register go thow with it.

I am sarry you fell this was a rip off. You are missing out on what could be a new opportunity for you to get past what ever you are dealing with.

--

For me Landmark helped me get past my self and gain access to possibilities.

Register agin and I promise you if you folow thow you will you will understand why thay dont offer refunds and you will understand whyt your frend wonted you to register.

All the best

Getting a refund from Landmark Education

AUTHOR: Nell - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, November 30, 2006

Keep trying. Call every day if you have to. They are hoping you'll just give up. Ask to speak to the manager. They are charging a lot of money for what you could get from the library without the coercive group dynamics, peer pressure, and hypnosis. They hope that three days on an uncomfortable chair will soften your mind to their message that if you recruit all your friends and family your life will be better. They will try to seduce you into going out and working very hard and then giving them the credit.
