How can I recover the money I paid to Stratford Career Institute ?

Question

I paid $368.54 for enrolment and six months installment when later on I discovered that their email address is no longer accessible. It was paid by convenience check.

Answer 1

Contact your state attorney general's office or your local consumer protection agency. Every county, city, and state has a consumer protection agency. It's going to take effect, but eventually you will get your money back.

Answer 2

Did you sign a contract? Was there anything that said something along the lines of payment being acceptance of their terms?

I suspect that a business of this size and nature knows that many of its enrollees will not complete its coursework. I would guess that they've got a legally binding agreement that lets them keep tuition once paid--just like most colleges and universities do.

First thing to do is reread any contract or agreement, and proceed from there.

Sorry not to have better news.
