NMLS Be Very careful with Mortgage Educator's

By
Real Estate Agent with Assistance With Real Estate, Inc

I would like to let everyone know what has just taken place with a company Mortgage Educators that was highly recommended to help us with NMLS. I signed up (5/11/10/) with the company to take their class on 5/20/10. I called and spoke with Michael Forsyth on May 11, 2010 and he gave me his song and dance. I said that after signing up that I did not see a location for this class. He laughed and said" We have not signed a leased with a place as we continue to get more people and want to be able to accommodate everyone. We will be letting you know of the location either late next week of the first part of the following week" Fast forward to today(5/19/10).. I was going through my emails looking for information. I decided to call and finally reach Michael. He now just advised me that he had sent out all of the information and he did not know what had happened to mine. But anyway now they do not have enough people signed up for the class so they cancelled it,  but he was willing to give me access to another one of their classes or he would offer me a large discount on the online Prep where I could do it at home in my time. Plus he would have a Presenter's available to me for 1 hour for me to ask the questions. Here is the part that got me. I paid $126.65 for this class that was initially $149 because I got a TBWS discount. During this conversation he said well the cost of the class was $89. What? No I paid $126.65 for your class. Oh we had someone marketing our class so they charged more and this excuse that excuse. So then I asked what he would give me the "At Home" and the 1 hour consultant would cost and I was advised $79. I then said "I thought you said that you were going to give me a discount due to this mix-up etc. But I was charged initially more than price for the class and now you are charging me what it cost on the Website.  I honestly am getting the idea that this company is nothing but a scam and I would be very careful!
