Penn Foster requires a signed student enrollment form prior to sending texts via post My son and I filled out the form and faxed it to the number given on the form by Penn Foster on 8/18/(Korean date)We waited days for verification from Penn Foster, but verification was not forthcomingI emailed Penn Foster foster on 8/19/regarding verification Penn Foster support replied on 8/22/16, and stated:
"We do not have record of receiving it as of yetPlease allow a few more days for us to go through are latest faxes to see if we have located it."
I allowed Penn Foster more days and still no verification, so I faxed the form once again on 8/23/and emailed again stating:
We have faxed the the Student Enrollment Application againYou should now have copiesWe hope(?) that you will be able to find at least one copy without further delay."
We waited another days and STILL no verification from PennI emailed again on 8/26/stating:

After receiving a collections letter from Penn Foster I called and spoke with collection agency to inform them I never signed up for anything with Penn Foster ( I had to research what Penn Foster even was) The collection agency stated it looked like a cause of fraud and was going to close it out However, I just received a letter from a collection agency again in the amount of $ I never signed up for anything and I am very upset that I keep receiving this, it is damaging to my credit and downright upsetting I have attempted to call Penn Foster numerous times and can never get through to an actual person! I do not understand how a company can destroy your credit and send you to collections when you never even had any business with them!
I have been for months trying to get a refund on a course I had to stop taking You can never contact a person from finance only the people on the phone personally talk to financeI requested someone call me three months later nobody did so It has been one run around after another, somehow they are unable to send me a refund check because it had to go in the card well the card was a prepaid the company won't issue a new one, so the schools latest thing is it can't be an email from the company but a letter head from the company saying these things All I cam say is wow, they acknowledge the refund is due but ate doing everything in their power to ensure I don't get it If I owed money they would harass me daily since they owe it, they don't want to refund it I've tried being as understanding as I cam be but frankly I'm tired of dealing with this place

About a year in a half ago I signed up with Penn Foster to complete the high school dipolma program but wasn't able to get started because I was caring for my ill mother who was in and out of the hospitalI didn't have to time to even start the problem because I would be taking my mom back in front to doctors appointments or sleeping at hospitals due to her being sicklyI didn't have much time to myselfSadly my mother passed and I was learning with dealing with her death but then I decided to start my program and the account was sent to collectionsAnd, I was trying to figure out why when I hadn't even started on the course
I am a former student at Penn FosterI had a "pay as you go" payment plan with themPay for a class, take itPay for a class, take itI didn't finish the whole BS program and had to drop out after about 6-monthsJust recently I contacted them to try to get a transcript of the classes I have already paid for and taken and they will not release the transcript until the TOTAL amount it paid offI didn't take all the classes so why would I pay for them? I am simply asking for the transcripts of the classes that have been paid for an succecssfully taken
I have paid all the fees I owed to this schoolthey are refusing to send me anything! I paid for this and they are saying it will take days when I was told it would be MondayI was pissed about it being Monday and then getting changed to days from John! John had the worst service and unpleasant attitude! you would think they would be trying to help people and screw them over! I asked to speak to Johns manager Andrew and he said that he couldn't do anything! what crap!!!! I then asked to speak to the CEO or VPthey said they couldn't do that
I have had a wonderful experience all 3x I have dealt with Penn Foster I even had to lapse a year in one of my programs due to an extremely difficult pregnancy and delivery They allowed me to pick up once I was well enough I had already paid the entire fee so they just held my spot open I had a year to complete the program at the time but with so many health issues I couldn't thankfully they worked really well with me on it and I finally was able to complete it My husband did his high school through this over years ago and it was so easy for him to work with them and on the courses He had no problem with it transferring when he attended college after that I have done courses on my own through them and about to do a 4th to work towards what I am hoping will be another advancement in my career I have recommend them to several friends who have also completed courses with them as well
I reached out to Penn Foster College to officially withdraw after completing nearly semesters towards an online Bachelor’s Degree in Business ManagementThe reason why I completed so many semesters so quickly was that I had transferred a number of credits from previously attended school and I worked non-stop on completing my degree in a timely manner
My reason for withdrawing was that I have other student loans currently out and I needed to defer payment on them while attending Penn Foster and paying them monthlyI could not afford bothAfter submitting all of the necessary paperwork to the studentloans.gov agency, I was told that my deferment would not be granted because Penn Foster is not an accredited learning institution and they do not recognize them as a part of the Higher Learning Commission
Upon learning that the department of education does not recognize them as a regionally accredited college, I learned that my current employer would not eitherThe reason for goin
I'am so upset with myself for deciding to try this school which I loved the curriculum they have for high school diploma, I had been doing okay with everythingAnd then work got so crazy, I got pregnant and so sick single mother with two other kids I didn't have time to do this anymoreThey told me I could cancel for $i called and was informed they"ll call me back, (which never happened) to find out later they put me in collectionsAnd now I have a collections bill over $and have no clue how I am going to pay itI would not ever recommend this 'school' to anyoneEver!!!! It's a scam
When I registered I was told that I could cancel within the first days if I wasn't satisfied with no more charges and a refund of what I paidWell I called to cancel today and they are trying to charge me $to cancel
Company has not sent me any notification about the balance dueI called the company to get the account handled gave me the run around now the account is posted on my creditI request this to be handled and removed of my credit report do to unfair practiceI asked for a copy of the contract to see why I am paying $no contract is available
I didn't complete any classes called several times to drop outI was told, over the phone, that I was successfully dropped out and didn't have to pay anythingThree weeks later I received a notice that I owed them moneyI called again to resolve they said that the issue was resolvedThen I get a collections notice saying I owed full tuition even though I didn't complete anything in the program and properly dropped outI don't understand why this place still has an A+, It is fraudulentPlease don't give me the bt that everyone situation is different bla bla bla, this business is greatRevdex.com do your job and realize that there has been complaints toward this company, now This business is not great, it's not even goodYes people have had success stories, good for themBut when it comes to dropping out or billing issues this company is lacking and needs to step upInstead of covering up their mistakes make Penn Foster creditable for their issuesI am thinking about s
I signed up for information, as far as I know, but I never attended any classes nor did I ever receive any course materialsI never even made the initial deposit to start classes - yet you want to bill me 2k? FOR WHAT? For the numerous e-mails you sent me reminding me to pay the deposit? NoYou can't bill me for services never received
On 3/I submitted a written notification to Penn Foster that I was dropping the program, per the enrollment agreement, an email is an acceptable notification of this action Up until that time was 100% on time with my payments I heard no other response from PF except that they received the notification on 3/and would be assigning it to a representative On June 24th I received a notice saying that I owed $400+ dollars and if not paid immediately that it would be sent to a credit agency I once again reached out to PF, this time I was told that I needed to call a number to cancel Since at that time I did not have a working phone due to being out of work I asked if PF could help, a very nice gentlemen by the name of Frank Y, cancelled my program and said I owed $(which I still dispute since I barely took any of the class and cancelled in March) but it was better then the $ Then on 7/I received a notice from a credit agency saying I owed $ When I reac
On 7/18/17, I was told I would be issued a refund of but had to wait days In the letter it states my credit card would be credited or a check under separate cover They also debited an additional in error and I was told that there was also a day wait
Now that I have waited my days (which I do not agree with anyways) The school is saying I need to wait an additional to weeks for it to be processed
This is unethical and I want my refund check The hold time to talk to someone was hours, spoke to the supervisor *** who was unempathetic and disconcerned He would not transfer me to *** or to the office of *** *** saying they do not take calls They also have no email
