The commercial aired on HGTV.  I called and spoke with their representative.  She told me that I would be guaranteed employment and have the choice of three options once I passed the course with an 80% or my money back: $31.45/hour full time with marketing time paid plus liability insurance and medical after 90 days, $24/hour part time with marketing time paid plus liability insurance and medical after 90days, $31.45/hour independent stager without marketing time paid or insurance.

I called and spoke with the same rep 3-4 times before signing up and paying $1,000.  Each time she reassured me of the employment guarantee and the money back guarantee.  I signed up in late May of 2009.  I paid the money with my debit card in two installments.  I completed the course with a passing grade of 84%.

I was elegible for employment at this point.  I had to submit my insurance policy, copies of my driver's license, background check (more money), vehicle registration, 6 letters of reccomendation, and resume.  I did that on December 9th, 2009.  I called on February 2nd, 2010 to ask when they were going to look at my employment application submissions.  She told me to check back in two weeks and she might have a better idea when they could look at it since they were short handed.  I called back on February 11th, 2010 she said she was sending me my contract information. 

I received an email with instructions to log on to my student/stager section of their website.  I did to find that I just got ripped off.  There was only one option and it was a month to month contract that I would end up owing them $300 more.  I was devistated.  I have called time after time to get my money back and they no longer answer the phone, emails, or voicemails that I have left. 

How can I get my money back?  I have their guarantees on the pamplets and copied from their website along with almost 100 people of Facebook that have a similar complaint.  There are a ton of other people out there that have been scammed by them as well.

I filed a complaint with the BBB and nothing was resolved. It is now 2 years later and all I know is that they got away with taking a lot of people's money and time.
