Penn Foster College Would you believe Punxsutawney Phil or Penn Foster? Scranton Pennsylvania

 Did not allow me to transfer my diploma credits in August 2009 into the associate degree program. They have on file I started August 25, 2010, but they didn't send my books or allow me to login to start classes until February 6th, 2011, the same date in 2016 I completed what I thought was my associate degree. The paperwork I signed from what they state was for only 1 semester and cost $984.00, which is not what I initially signed up for in August or September 2009. The associate degree course was to total $984.00, not per semester as they changed to without my knowledge in August 2010. After completing what I thought was my associate degrees from February 6th, 2011 - the same date in 2012 I never received my degree or the two free elective courses of Certified Ethical Hacker and Music Appreciation, so I asked for the difference of the $684.00 for the diploma course from 2008-2009, since credits were transferred into the associate degree program which cost $984.00 total & the difference of $684.00 was not refunded after they told me that they were changing the program in 2011 & that once I paid off the $984.00 it would be applied in 2012 towards their new bachelor's degree program which the total cost was $984.00 then. Now they tell me I only completed two semesters towards my associate degree, but I called today and they say I only completed one semester when their advertisement via internet & TV stated the associate degree course only cost $984.00 fully to receive the degree. In 2014 I was told that I needed to pay $57.00 to re the program for the associate degree credits to transfer to their bachelor's program, so I sent a U.S. Postal Money order, and never was sent by mail my study materials. I was told the course was totally online now for students they felt didn't need books whom already trained with Penn Foster. I asked for a refund again, which I never received , so I tried logging into class for months before allowed to & had issues being able to see the coursework. I asked for a refund again, and was denied and told about their 30 day return policy & that if I didn't finish my training by August 15th, 2015 that I would have to start the entire course again to receive my associates degree, which told me that they lied the entire time in advertising via internet & TV, also that the were falsifying information on signed agreements to a $984.00 per semester fee as if they were an highly accredited college or university. I told them today, after trying to get transcripts transfered again since December 16th, 2016 that if I knew that the associate degree(4 semesters) was $984.00 per semester and not the total cost I would have never enrolled at Penn Foster and would have attended a brick and mortar University on campus with a dormroom or online, or did it online with a community college!
