I had a very disappointing experience
I had a very disappointing experience with the British Council I was speaking to one of the staff members over the phone and they abruptly hung up without any prior notice or explanation This kind of unprofessional behavior is unacceptable especially from an institution that prides itself on high standards I expected better communication and respect for clients Very dissatisfied

I ve had a horrible experience
I ve had a horrible experience They are very unprofessional For the listening reading writing part their software did not work Even though I had prepared for the test and put all my energy into it their lack of professionalism ruined everything I had to wake up at 3 am and I had taken a day off from work to make sure the exam went well for me Hours before I had prepared the room they paranoically checked including the ceiling and the floor They have you take down all your paintings from the wall and all books from the shelves as if someone can instantly learn English by looking at a painting or the ceiling or from a book They promised to make the refund in 3 weeks even though I paid instantly There is no damage repayment or reduction coupon for the glitch in their system not even an apology e-mail I hope people read this before they book an exam with them The problem is that all Universities require this exam and this is why the organizers treat people with a lack of respect they know we have no other choice What a shameful lack of professionalism for the era we live in They take so much money from people but are not able to invest in good software that can offer a good exam experience I am traumatized by this experience The examiners for the reading listening and writing were so rude and were treating me as if I was under arrest especially the first lady that showed up I will need therapy after this

Be careful to conditions term
Be careful to conditions term They play with 14 days cancellation period and trial period they will not give you back your money if you attend a class during the trial period or during the 14 days Furthermore the cancellation period ends 14 days AFTER you START the Trial So you don t have a real cancellation period Then classes don t work You speak with people who don t know English and teachers don t correct you and others They stand there reading slides I was tricked I lost money that i really need for my career and now I have to wait a lot before finding a new chance

Super bad experience
Hi people please don t book the IELTS with this company I booked the exam at May when the moment arrived I was getting ready to do the exam and the examinator told me that I need to take out the screen computer that didn t work He said to log out and confirmed that I could log in again because I had time so I did The application took more than 5 minutes to run so they denied my access I tried to send emails and I made a refund with my bank Afterwards they reclaimed and took my money and sent me a post with personal information from another person This is ILLEGAL that accused me that I didn t assisted on the exam these people are horrible and now I will put a complaint and do a paralegal process
