University of Phoenix” is ripping off,scamming,lying to and cheating people. They have ripped my daughter off and they almost got me a couple years ago.

There are many complaints, even by the ex-employees. Now I’m sure that there are many students or ex-students that are doing or did just fine with University of Phoenix, or didn’t pay attention to their scam, but there millions of others that did get ripped off, including my 22yr old, single mother, Daughter.

HER STORY:
She was told by the enrollment adviser, that the paper work He WALKED her through was all formality; even when they go to the “loan” part. She told him, she did not want a loan and if she had to get a loan, she didn’t want to pursue with them, He continued to tell her, to not worry about it, it’s only if she decided to get a loan. He “assured” her it was not a loan…So “SHE SIGNED” Even after she read everything. She put her trust in this University of Phoenix employee that he knew more than her, this is his job to get her signed up and he did exactly that, but only lied in the process.

I have talked to previous enrollment counselors at UOP and they said this:
"You have to understand, if we as enrollment counselors do not enroll enough students in a month, we get written up and over the course of a six month period, can be subjected to a reduction in pay!"

When she would get statements in the mail from Wachovia about a loan, she supposedly had with them. She then called her counselor, who again assured her it was nothing, she did NOT have a loan, she has a FREE Grant and told her also that she was basically being paid to go to school when she received a check in the mail from UOP, that it was just extra money to pay for any school necessities.

So now, almost 2yrs, and just 6months before she graduates, she gets a call from the financing dept about her “LOAN” that she’s NOT suppose to have. She told the finance lady that she did not have a loan, and the finance lady, being as nice as she could, told her, that she shows, she does, that she might want to check with her counselor.

At this point, she made several attempt via email and calls, but did not ge a reply for ever a week, and once she did get a reply, it was when she called back and talked to the lady she was suppose to talk to, which told her, that she NEVER received any phone calls or emails.

My Daughter, went down to the school, to financing and the lady, that smiled with a smirky smile and kept telling my daughter, “Well you signed” OMG! She knows that she signed, but the fact is, HE, the enrollment counselor, walked her through the paper work and told her to sign, to NOT worry about the loan stuff, it was NOT a loan, that he knew what he was talking about, it's his job to. (well it sure was his job, to con people into trusting him and signing)

These people need to be stopped. We are in the midst of getting a class action law suit going, but, We need to get as many people as we can, with a SIMILAR ISSUE, to be a part of this. We are working with Warner Law Office, Patrick Warner 614-226-4077. www.pwarnerlaw.com

If there is anyone else that this, similar situation happened to them, please contact me and or Patrick

This can’t keep happening to people who are just trying to better their career, and make a good life for themselves.

If you are posting here to defend them,
I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK!! that's not the purpose of my post. My purpose is solely to find others out there that has been ripped off by Univ. of Phoenix
I'm doing what ever I can to help. I get nothing from this, only the satisfaction of helping my daughter and others.
