This is a scam

My son was the lucky one to get the job!.....or as it turned out the very unlucky one to have been selected by an unscrupulous organisation.........
He was given very little actual flight training, or proper coaching, and was even asked to continue signing on for job seekers allowance after starting the job! He was paid just £100 per week after being led to believe it would be £250 per week.......He was recently called in to sit an exam with no prior notice, and then told he had failed the exam and therefore no longer required! he had been told that this was just a basic first test paper, and that he could resit it if necessary. No explanation has been offered despite requesting this in writing!
He has also confirmed that very many prospective trainees being tested on a regular basis and all receive just 10 minutes flight time at a cost of £290 each....despite there supposedly being two trainee positions available, none have since been filled! This is a scam that nets this unscrupulous company an awful lot of money, whilst dashing the hopes of young vulnerable people.
