I have been waiting for my refund since December last year, but the process has been continuously delayed, with different people handling my query. On January 31st, I was assigned to Gugu, who assured me that the refund would be processed within 4 to 6 weeks and confirmed payment by March 7th. However, to date, I have not received my refund. Yesterday, I followed up with Gugu and copied Michelle, who was my initial contact regarding this matter. Michelle then informed me that Gugu is no longer with the organization. When I asked for a timeframe, she did not respond. I have provided all the required documents, yet my refund remains unpaid. I would appreciate a clear and immediate resolution to this matter, as I am extremely frustrated with the ongoing delays.

I app**** at international hotel school to do culinary arts apprenticeship, to gain necessary skills to run my restaurant, however after successfully completing my interview with a restaurant they assigned in Sandton it was agreed to place me in blue hills, I was then referred to youth at WORK to sign a contract. On signing the contract, I came to learn that I was placed with a hotel in Sandton, which was not the agreement and assigned an occupation in a department I did not apply for "food and beverage assistant" and this I did emphasize several times "I already have experience in this field," but they were persistent obliging i sign the contract, which I refused as they could not deliver in their promises, and it would not be fair for students to repay the R55,000 loan which is due to be deducted from their accounts month after month just to learn the basics. This issue was not handled accordingly, instead my name was removed from the list of candidates without any notice or formal written or verbal communication (which is unprofessional), and I fear for students who fall in this trap without clear knowledge of what they're getting into. As a qualified conduct Facilitator, Assessor, and Moderator, I know what is expected in learning, and I had high expectations from this institution, but very disappointed. Don't put your ink on any white paper without fully understanding what you're signing up for. If this was a learnership or a sponsored course I would slightly understand, but how then do you get training on what you did not apply for, and still be expected to pay? There are skills you can attain for free at restaurants and retail without paying significant amount of money, like the position I was appointed for. If I did not know better, I'd be fooled to think I'll train to be a chef, meanwhile you'd be setting up venues, serving drinks and meals or being some bar tender shaking egg wine and cutting lemons. I've begun reporting them to correct education bodies, because such conducts needs to be investigated. As a higher education institutions you do not get rid of students just because they're asking relevant questions, and not follow correct protocols on resolving disputes. This is unacceptable!

I recently sent an email to the Sunninghill Campus requesting feeback on their statement/brochure when I registered my son at the School. To date they have not had the courtesy to respond.
