Train 4 Trade Skills scam hard sell con don't sign

I was visited by a company called Train 4 Trade Skills. The company was using hard sell tactics. I did my research on the net and found they where a very unsavory company. BBC watchdog even did a piece revealing there tactics.There certificates are not recognized and they only want you to sign a loan agreement. DO YOUR RESEARCH Please be careful and fight back. If any one fancies responding by secretly filming theses guys in action. It would be a great watch. Just turn them away when they ask for money and watch them get upset.
it's quite revealing behavior for someone who doesn't get commission!!
My training coordinator was an indian guy by the name of Luke.

So let me get this correct. This man gets £1000-1500 a week!! to just come to my home and decide on weather I have the aptitude to be a plumber! He's called a Training Co ordinator. It sounds like he's a salesman and he works on commission!

This video is blocked in the UK now, apparently due to a "legal complaint". I had to change my IP just to watch this video, but it was worth it -- thanks for the warning. I have a T2TSkills guy coming to visit today.

Also about companys not taking on people trained by this company is not correct, its people from college in general, Employers want people with hands on experience and lets face it, someone just leaving college hasnt got any! besides a piece of paper saying they can...

If you really want it, then you may end up having to do a bit of unpaid work just to get a bit of experience, plus an employer will love that on a CV anyway so crack on!

Ive done alot of research into this company over the weekend and theres alot of good and alot of bad(MOSTLY good), the people who are doing well and keen to learn are posting all the positive, and the people who are just lazy and expect to push some wires together and get the paperwork are posting all the negative!

ALTHOUGH i have noticed they seem to be avoiding paying out when they can... Example: accommodation, refunding travel fees, £200 discount towards tools, bunch of tool etc.

I'm not defending my choice to sign with a blended learning course I was mearly pointing out that in my experience it work I was a lorry driver but had previous building experience being a lorry driver I was away from home all week so I could not commit to doing an in house college course as I would not be home to go. So blended learning was my only option as I could study in my lorry at night it work for me but might not work for everyone.

ALL sales BS. And clearly anyone who has signed up for one of the hard sell boys are naturally going to defend their decision to invest their money with them.

[BrookhouseTraining]

But NOT all training centre are the same - We at Brookhouse Training welcome anyone to visit one of our Open Days or even come visit during the week and speak to our students. We only offer onsite training NO distance or blended learning and you will interview us not the other way round. It make me sick to know how these other companies operate with their "Oh dear how does that make you feel" & "I'm not sure if we can accept you"

[BrookhouseTraining]

Yes hard sell, commission only sales guys signing people up to finance...its known as "Negative Emotion" selling. Distance learning (hardly ever works - How can you learn a practical trade from a book in your bedroom) especially for gas & plumbing courses. You must be very careful about the quals you get AND what industry you get in to...

[tmcc182]

sorry! where was I not just that but all my qualifications are recognised city& quilds qualifications. you can look them up on their website. I've done my 2330 2392 2382 and ny 17th edition and I've still got more to do. And after a year and a half I'm working for an electrical contractors. so sorry you didn't want ti sign up but it ain't a scam in my experience

[tmcc182]

Actually mate your wrong! yes they hard sell and yes the salesman was peat. But I'm doing there electrical course and it was slot cheaper than most other courses and i'm paying the finance off interest free trough their finance company. not just that

[onirosco]

Too late for me... this happened to me about 3 years ago with the skills centre. Happened exactly how you described it and he tricked me into signing a 7k electrician course with about 3k interest. Even gave me his number! (didnt work). Anyway long story short, skills centre went bust, still have to pay. keep threatening to take me to court for the money.... I keep telling them to take me to court.... One massive scam.
