London School Of Business & Finance [LSBF] review: still waiting for results 64

Oops, that website address should be:

lsbfnews.blogspot.com

Hello,
I am writing this mail with reference to petition against LSBF.
I am stuck like the any other person, the LSBF person did not let me know that I am not suppose to pay the deposit before validation of the course, and now I am not able to raise a ticket for refund as they are not providing me the password required to log in for MyLSBF.
The course is still not valid, so they made me change the university and the course, now it has been 3 months I have not received any confirmed news regarding my application status.
I have also heard news that they are having some trouble with their operations and might shut any time soon.
Do have a possible way out for this? Please guide me through.
Thank you

Enjoy!

Hi all, I am also a victim of LSBF, I enrolled for a full time CIM 2012 and my visa was refused due to the course level, as in the offer letter they provided me is says the course is a level 6 course whereas in the CAS letter is says Level 5 which doesn't exist as for CIM courses they only have Level 5 and level 6.when i went to the college to complaint the staff were really rude. So I have requested my refund online and and also send them so many emails but I am still haven't heard from them yet. can anyone help me please. Thanks

Word of advise,

Stay away from this school as it seems like they are running a scam. I was enrolled with them initially part time which my company prepaid for the whole course. As the situation changed and I needed to get a refund back from them they started sounding very shifty.

See below their response in a chronological order

1. My case was being reviewed by someone in Mauritius – after 2 months.
2. Once I confronted them that the person in Mauritius have no idea and it’s been 2 months since I lodged my application then a person in their London office reviewed my case in 2 hours and they ended up declining my refund application.
3. I had to appeal against their decision – Writing email and trying to contact their refund department. Such a time wasting process let alone going through all the un-necessary aggregation
4. As soon as I appealed against their decision, after 2 hours I got a response back saying it has been approved.According to their refund process it usually takes 45 days and my application was reviewed in 2 hours –very unprofessional.
5. They deducted 300 Pounds in total as an admin fee…. Such a joke.
And now they are still asking for more back up letters or documents which have nothing to do with my refund application. Which makes one wonder what they are really up to?
My conclusion is that if they cannot train their own staff members on financial matters and being professional how on earth they can train general public people like you and me.
London School of Business Finance needs to be changed to London Scam of Peoples Money. It has been well over 2 months and I am yet to see the money that I am fully entitled to. To avoid any disappointment I would stay away from this school. They are such a night mare to deal with.
They bring the whole the new meaning to the word Unprofessional and Scamming.
Day light robbery - Unbelievable.

Ok, here's the deal. I went to LSBF after I read their offer of free top-up MBA. Before any payment, my exchange with LSBF was super friendly. As soon as they got my money, they turned their backs. My recruiter got sent to Canada. I completed my ACCA component and was eligible for masters. It has been a year they kept turning me down and delaying. Then, they finally gave me a place in an Italian degree, which I checked online as well as with my friends in Italy, and the university, is well, not any good at all.
I am right now taking my time, and then going to slap a big law-suit on them.
Cheers.

London School of Business and finance offered myself and a couple of my friends admission to study ACCA or CIMA, pass all our exams and get the opportunity for a discounted MBA being offered by University of Whales,
Now, without informing us, we are being told that the MBA is going to be awarded by an Italian University which is no where near the size of University of Whales.
If we wanted an MBA that was going to be awarded by an Italian University, we would have paid Euros and not that much to study in Italy and definitely would have had a far less living and accommodation cost than that which we have had in London for the past 2 years.Gettinag an MBA from a UK institution, I thought, was worth the cost of being in London for all these years and the cost associated with it

And with all these, they rely on their terms and conditions to refuse any refunds with one does not want an MBA from that Italian University.Like they just put it on the phone to me 'I am sorry but if you refuse to take this Italian University offer that we have, then you get to lose all the amount that have been paid towards your MBA fees.

I am student of Msc in Finance from London School of Business and Finance. It has been almost a year I have submitted my dissertation with no response. Every time I send email or call they claim to send the dissertation for final marking to University of Wales. When I directly check with the University they say that they never received the dissertation.

I am contemplating for taking full refund of my course fees and if the ignore I will take the legal route.

Hi, I'm a student of the LSBF and this year completed my CIMA course. Since, May this year I'm waiting for the place in MBA. Unfortunately, not only your student support team is unprofessional but the complaints department as well. It has been 3 weeks since I submitted my complaint and I'm still waiting for the reply. What a shame!

By the way, LSBF team I have tried to send email to your address and guess what, I received an "undelivered" notification. Clearly something wrong is happening.

Hi Nijat,

We have sent you a message, could you please look at it and get back to us.

Regards,
The LSBF Social Media Team

So, LSBF team how are we doing. I'm still waiting for the reply from your colleagues. It seems they really want me to take this matter with an external body.

Dear all.e
I am also one of victim of LSBF. I have paid almost 6000 pound back in 2009, ones I asked for refund and they started playing with me and I was asking from one person to another. Last week they told me that I wan't get my refund due to I have attained 1 month class,
surprisingly now they dont have any accreditation with government body, even they are not authorised. so if you guys have any problem related refund with LSBF please contact me as I have already applied for legal action.
also please find regional office or Agent in your country inform them not to send any student in LSBF.

Hi,
All students who have been waiting for their degree results please contact me on businexuk@gmail.com. I have started a legal claim process against LSBF and any of you with similar 'pending results' issue can help a lot by providing your details.
I suspect that LSBF has never forwarded any dissertations to University of Wales.
Good luck.

I want to apply for the advanced certificate in strategic maketing management ( executive education online) is there any issue about that coz all the claims are about MBA only, thx

LondonSchool of Business and Finance - Poor service and study material that is not up to standard

I am now at the stage where I want to cancel my course with LSBF. On the one hand, the service I have received has been shocking, the response time is slow and I have not been properly informed from day one. I don't feel that I have enough support. Even with regards to my C03 tutor. I emailed him weeks ago and have still not received a response. On the other side, I am not happy with the standard of LSBF study material. I initially applied to study CIMA+MBA at the London School of Business and Finance Manchester campus in February 2015. I was pushed to make the payment of £9744 and once I did then suddenly the course was not available for me anymore. I was deferred to the course in August. I was not happy to wait about 6 months and then was encouraged to start the online course at a cost of £4200 and I was assured I would get the rest of my money back. I was told to apply for a refund using the online refund portal to apply for the refund of £5544. I applied for the refund and proceeded to wait. Over a month later a refund of £3946 was approved. I queried the outstanding amount of £1598 and was told that it was for the MBA exam and dissertation fees. I was not informed of this prior to applying for my refund. I explained that I did not want to pay these fees now as I was not sure that I would even do the MBA anymore. I was told to apply for another refund of £1598 separately. This refund was refused as I did not do it within the necessary time frame. This was not my fault though as I was waiting for a response to the refund application in which I requested the full refund of £5544 and I was not informed of the fees in a timely matter. I have still not received my refund of £3946 and it has been 3 months since it was approved. I have phoned and e-mailed countless times and the only response I receive is that they are waiting for payment dates from the finance team. After studying the 18 chapters for C02 and watching all the online lectures with LSBF. I felt I was prepared for the C02 exam - I tried some mock exams and there was a lot I did not know. I complained to my LSBF C02 tutor and was told it was impossible to cover the whole syllabus, which I think is ridiculous. I was then advised to buy the study text from BPP - which was another 400 and something pages and that meant I had to lay out more money. I went through the study text from BPP and found that it had all the information that I needed. I have now moved onto C03 with LSBF and once again I am very disappointed with the information in the LSBF study guide and on the lectures. I feel it is not up to standard. I again bought the C03 study text from BPP and there is no doubt about it that this study text will equip me for the exams and I do not feel that LSBF study material will. I cannot afford to continue to buy extra study text over the next few years after I have already laid out £5544. I have paid so much money to study with LSBF and yet I have to spend more money to buy separate study text to learn everything needed – that does not make sense to me. I therefore have decided that I would not like to complete the CIMA+MBA through LSBF. I would like to cancel the course. I explained this an employee of LSBF and he said it shouldn’t be a problem – I would simply have to pay for the 2 modules I have used and an administration fee but the rest of my money should be able to be refunded. He told me that I would again need to apply for a refund using the refund portal and that is where I can apply to cancel my course. I did so and that refund has been refused because again it was not done within the necessary time frame and that my opinion that the material is not up to standard is not a valid one. The have not kept me up to date on any of my refunds. They have not given me any other options and I feel like I am in the dark here. I want to make everyone aware of how one can be trapped by LSBF.

Actually, I can not believe that this is an educational organization. They kept sending me emails and threats during continuous THREE months asking me to pay my fees.Every time, I replied to them by sending my bank transfer confirmation and an email from THEIR PROGRAM ADVISER confirming the receipt of the entire tuition fees. Finally, they understood that there is no hope to abuse me, they stopped their emails even without apologizing.

Lsbf Worst school ever, I have enrolled for Acca .Luckly for 6 papers not for all of them but still more than £3500 .That time I have been told first time pass guarantee, If students can't pass free reseat guarantee etc but when you Ayten the class everything below average, poor materials I deceid to leave in first month and applied for refund therefore I dint clarify and even I couldn get £1 back instead they offer some other useless course :(

I am also still waiting for my MBA (UOW) results and it has been more than 7 months now! nobody is giving me a tentative date as to when the result will be given. All they say is that we will contact you as soon as we receive it!

My name is Julieth Garzon Vargas, my student Id is A4076331. I was student at LSBF doing the hnd management course that "ended" september 2015. I submitted all my assignments then and have received all of my results, late, but I have them. However I have yet to receive any communication regarding my graduation from the course or the certificate which proves that I have completed it.
Five months have already passed and no communication has been made. When will I receive my certificate? What the hell is going on? at this point I am just wondering if I should contact a lawyer and try to get a refund for the course, but then who will refund me two years of my life wasted for nothing?

ANYONE LOOKING TO STUDY AT LSBF, , , , DONT!

Hi, folks!
I am facing a similar problem by the studyinteractive.org / LSBF. I delivered my dissertation on 01 March 2016 and am still waiting for results and certificate (status quo of 2016-09-09). The institution is unable to give any clear feedback about max. deadline for delivering end results and concluding this whole process.
Have you finally got results and certificate? How long did it take?
I would greatly appreciate if I could get reply from you, since this level of disrespect towards students is absolutely incomprehensible and unacceptable.
Thank you.
Wishing you all the best.
