I think we will have to wait for written confirmation of what Barclays/Advent intend to do. I really want to continue with my studies but feel let down by the whole situation and would prefer a full refund so I can start again with another company of my own choosing. Not sure how to go about this suppose it is a bit of a waiting game unnerving I know but will have to see what is offered.

I contacted Barclays partner finance this morning and was told they are looking to offer the same training with another company and we will be informed in writing in the next week or so.

Hi I'm from Carlisle. What about contacting your local MP surely if enough people do it may be raised in parliament. We have got to stop the rip off mentality in this country! This has the potential to ruin a lot of decent hard working people it is unjust.

Ok thanks will check tomorrow

Does this mean that I firstly have to try and get recompense from Advent, failing that I should be refunded by the credit card company? The sum in question is around four thousand pounds as I'd already paid up about nine hundred quid to Advent which I also intend to reclaim.

Thanks will keep a close eye on this site. Will also inform of outcome with the credit card company tomorrow.

Hi I'm in the same situation as everyone else but paid my loan off during the interest free period with my credit card. Will this qualify me to make a claim from the credit card company using section 75 of the consumer credit act? Not sure where I stand on this one. Will call them in the morning. If anyone else is in a similar situation please let me know. Also believe with so many people being effected we should stick together on this one and insist on complete refunds.
