So, before the first national lockdown I was told I would receive an "free" extension to pass my level 3 PT as failure to pass before my cut off date was due to circumstances outside my control, (covid). A month into coming out of lockdown, I was assigned a slot to complete my practical. I took and passed my practical, to then be told I wasn't given an extension in the first place and now if I wish to continue, I'd need to pay for the extension. I was not and am not willing to pay for the very thing I was told I would receive for free in the first place, and especially after paying £3500. After completing my practical, a few emails being sent and confusing correspondence between myself and their office, I get told everything is fine, I've passed. I have been given a provisional certificate to prove I have been given the pass which was given by my tutor. 5 months later, I'm still waiting for my proper qualification certificate that once again I have been told I'll get, it'll take abit of time.
Hi Tristram,
Thank you for leaving a review.
We are sorry to hear that you have been requested to pay an extension fee to enable you to take your exams. Upon review of your details, you had undertaken a Personal Training course that came with a 3 year training guarantee which had expired just before the first lockdown had been implemented. We have provided you with a practical assessment in light of the pandemic as advised in your review and are pleased to confirm that you have passed the course.
We apologise about the delay and will be looking into this in more detail to get this resolved for you.
Kind regards,
The Training Room
