A little over reaction me thinks
With a little more experience I think you will begin to be able to decern Marketing hypebole from reality. That is why it is so important to visit as many FTO's as possible and form your own opinion, rather than blindly absorbing and believing the glossy brochures.
IMHO BCFT is a good outfit and I would recommend them. I have also heard good things about PAT..so that may be a good choice for you..assuming you have visited them
Actual a good use of time would be to visit BCFT, PAT and Cabair as they are within ~200m of each other.
But you should also take a look at Old Sarum as they are close to you, very good, very friendly and will take you through PPL at a good price.
