Comment They call, a LOT (Score 2) 32
I have an autistic child that is interested in coding after finishing high school and we tried their free class.
They canceled the 1st session after the teacher did not show up.
On the rescheduled appointment, the next teacher was very helpful and my child liked the class but had a hard time understanding (I thought the teacher had a really good English speaking ability but the accent was hard for my child to understand. Also the terminology being used was above my child's day-1 understanding of coding so there's that learning curve as well).
After the class they started the hard press on taking their classes and insisting that we start scheduling classes right now, I advised them the child needs to finish high school 1st before we do more, this was a test to see how we liked the feel of the class and how we liked the quality of what they were going to teach our child. They said they understood but then they kept trying to get a confirmation to pay for classes now, advised we were not ready yet so the call was able to end respectfully.
After that call we received multiple calls & multiple emails, different people each time, each trying to get us to accept their deal. They don't listen to what you're saying, they just keep doing the hard-push sell. I'm sure my kid would have liked their classes but I wouldn't consider them anymore after their ignoring my saying we have to wait till after my kid graduates.
I know they don't like negative reviews but if they're going to hound people for posting honest reviews, they should consider a less aggressive sales tactic.
