I signed up to do a course with aim redstone, it was for ACCA foundation and intermediate. I completed the foundation stage and had started intermediate, I was told I had a total of 24 months to complete both courses which would of taken me to May 2016. From January I could no longer access the course. I also have no prove that I completed the foundation stage. I have contacted them many times and had no response. Very poor indeed!

I completed a few months ago my course - ACCA Foundation FIA online course and I did not receive certificate. It is ridiculous,because they ensured me that I get certificates. I wrote to them many times any I did not get any answer. I paid for that course and I do not have any proof that I completed it.

I completed the same course and DID NOT receive the promised certificate. I contacted them via their website but did not get a reply.

I too have had the same thing, I completed the ACCA foundation stage and was in the middle of my intermediate course which is supposed to finish in May this year, I can no longer access the course and I haven't received a certificate for the first stage and I got no replies to my emails. Total rip off.

I ordered the Level 3 Legal Secretary course as it said that it was CPD Accredited. After reading the reviews on here I decided to check on the CPD website where I was unable to find them. I decided to email CPD who informed me that they do not support or certify courses by Aim Redstone. So do not waste your money on this course as it doesn't amount to anything other than if you read a law book!

As all of you I also started this "legal secretary course", but I got suspicious when nobody answered my emails about exams and doubts..it is clear it's something wrong.. though the course it is very complete in terms of types of laws, it is not practice at all.. and I compared this Level 3 course with different website's and the unit don't much at all!!!be in mind that as Legal secretary our work is more a administrative job and not need to know Law so in deep. Do you know if this course is valued or recognized by any institution? Please let me know where I could claim this or if you hear from them please pass me the details!

Hi there,
Nothing at all! and I don't thing I will... as you I just started this course .. but I notice quite soon that something was not wright. A course withouth any type of support and exams will led to no certificate!! and what's the point to have a course's material if at the end won't get the certificate to prove it? I'm quite dissapointed.. but just reading the other's people feedback make me think we won't heard from them.

Hello, i have also been recently very interested in doing the same course as you. did they manage to contact you? how was the course?
Written on: 24/04/2015
Hi
The course was pretty good, a lot of the topics I have studied throughout my law degree.
I did manage to speak to them over the phone when I first purchased the course, however since then I have been unable to. It seems as if they have moved office or gone into insolvency, as they never pick up the phone nor reply back to my emails.
If I was you I wouldn't pay for the course until you are able to contact them.

I am also looking to take this to Watch dog and trading standard. I think it a very poor company that has no customer service. i worked hard Acca Foundation course and now have nothing to show for this.
Written on: 08/03/2016
I agree with you completely. I too have decided to take action as well. The BBB is also going to be contacted. I will also take this to Watch Dog and Trading Standards. I believe if we all stick together we can get what we deserve. I don't think any one of us would have paid good money for this coarse if we did not think we would have received the certificate for it!!! This is absolutely ridiculous that we all have to fight to obtain a piece of paper.
Written on: 08/03/2016
Well, I question your integrity as a company. I have sent several emails begging for a response. NO RESPONSE has been sent back to me. I completed the diet and nutrition coarse February 19th 2016. I have been applying for jobs and NEED the certificates as proof that I completed the coarse. I will not sit back like others and take it as a loss. I will call the better business bureau, I will take legal action if I have to. Why? Because this is unfair and and unjust that you think you can get away with treating people like this. You were very quick to take my money. But cant seem to find the time to print off a certificate. That's why!!!!!!

DO NOT BUY ANY COURSES FROM THIS COMPANY! I bought the two courses off Groupon, Fitness management and Personal Fitness Trainer. The courses are IDENTICAL. All of the personal fitness trainer course was already in the fitness management course. Even so, I completed both courses and they NEVER sent me my certificates even though I sent multiple emails. I did a nutrition course from them earlier in the year and I got my certificate? Then when I emailed saying if I can't have my certificates I want my money back - no response... NOT ONE...I emailed, called, wrote directly to them on their website.....just a terrible experience. Thankfully Groupon rocks and game my a full refund but STILL...I spent over 40 hours doing these courses and now I have nothing to show for it? No certificate...nothing....BULL

The ACCA foundation course from Aimredstone has been a very enjoyable and easy to learn course. What I really liked about the course is the interactive questions between every unit. The quizes does help you learn even more. At first I had doubts and thought it would be a rubbish course as it was only going for under £50 but it was far from that. I would recommend anyone who wants to gain some sort of basic understanding of accountancy to take this course. This course also leads you to gain your Acca qualification. Hopefully I will catch another deal from Aimredstone on wowcher to take the intermediate course.

The Interior Design course at Aim Redstone is very informative and presented with great photography. I thoroughly enjoyed this course as it breaks down a lot of concepts. The course is great as it is written in a way that is easy to understand. By the time I was finished I knew that I had learned something and I could easily and quickly apply it. The course has creative tips and challenges to solidify what you have learned. Also the service was fast and timely, I received my login details within 24 hours.

I was recommened to study the ACCA with Aim Redstone from my friend. I am now half way through the training and I am impressed with everything. The training is laid out very well and the question banks and interactive question and answers really help. I have also registered with the ACCA and I hope to finish soon and take my exams with the ACCA and maybe one day fully finish the ACCA.

I am currently studying Aim Redstones fashion design program that I bought through Amazon. I would easily say it's one of the best online programs I have studied. It's clear, the structure of the program is good and the images and colours schemes and fashion design section is the best part. I hope in the future I will continue studying with Aim Redstone.

Purchased ACCA Accounting Course - Foundation and Intermediate. Very disappointed with quality of interface and content which is basically a book with questions at the end. Material uses $ rather the £ currency, suggesting written for US audience. The only plus point I can give was the refund from AIM Redstone. Basically you are buying a book with lots of text to read.

Ahh! Aim Redstone I love this online college. There's nothing bad I can say about Aim Redstone. Because guess what? They are great. No, but really, the work is great and I love my fashion design course. It is the best.... the work is stimulating, and it's just with a button I am logged in. I can't wait until I start my Image consulting course. I would recommend the fashion design course highly (aka, try it you will not be disappointed!). XO

I signed up to the Garden Design Course through Amazon Local having read a number of very positive reviews on other courses. The course was described as: > Learn about gaining planning consent and develop your project management > skills > In the garden design course you'll discover how to plan your garden, take measurements, draw a plan, prepare the area, costing and estimation, laying lawns, building steps, irrigation and more > Each course is assessed through on-line quizzes and a final exam at the end of 12 months I read through the whole of the Garden Design course which was almost entirely text and felt like more of an over-view of the subject rather than an actual course! There was no supplementary reading material, no assessment quizzes, and no option to take an exam on completion or download a certificate. I contacted Aim Redstone to ask if there was an error with their online system for this course and was simply told to ask Amazon for my money back! The other courses may well be very good but this one is rubbish, you can learn as much reading a gardening book - don't waste your money on it!

Just purchased the Intro to Payroll Management
With payroll you need to have updated information, as it changes every year, for instance Nat Minimum wage on the course still shows last years figure. All their figures including NIC limits are out of date, it is so frustrating trying to learn something which is wrong.
Still waiting for someone to contact me!
It's hard enough trying to get the processes correct without having to deal with incorrect info!
