1. Some students do have the right attitude and they still fall foul in the schools. AT is famous for taking an instant dislike to someone coming in through the door and seems to enjoy making there life hell.
2. Claiming back by credit card can be a huge pain in the bum especially if the schools starts waving contracts which they have years and years of practise and pissed off students to get right for making life difficult. And by the time you add the extra on for paying by CC most of your savings have disappeared and well the schools know it.
3. It is a pain in the arse I have been through it. And there is always the chance that they will refuse you entry and your deposite is gone.
4. More money and they can cancel it, and then you have to leave before coming back in again. There are a couple of known names who like to do this. They will also have penalty clauses which mean you will loose big time thus removing any benefit on price again.
5.Alot of us agree with that completely and hopefully they will get thier finger out and do as you say, at the schools cost of course.
6. Again adds to the cost which isn't included in the headline cost which folk only find out when over there. You don't need it at home either type so add that on to the headline price.
7. They are well sussed in making sure problems go away. Anyway it will add weeks onto your time and also cost a fortune due to penalty payments.
8. Yep and you would have thought that the stupid bastards could get it right after all these years they have been doing it. But they still make a pigs arse of it for no apprant reason. But to be fair UK schools do the same but at least you can get to them to sort it out.
