    As said ^^^ get something in writing; you may well have a case with a small claims court. Gather all the marketing and paperwork, and try to put together a timeline of what happened and what was said to you.

    Bear in mind that whoever was 'training' you may be reading this thread.

    Don't let this put you off. I did my CBT in 95 and the bloke was pretty unpleasant, seemed to think all motorcyclists should wear bandanas when not riding and like guns-n-roses :-?

    personally i find these 0-motorcyclist in 4 days slightly odd, but there are many folk who have got on well with them

    Sounds awful Maz! But everyone on here always says Able Training are good, and I did mine with Kickstart in Keynsham who were really friendly and confidence building, so there are good companies out there.

    If you ever want someone to go for a gentle ride out with to build up some confidence then just ask - I've only just moved up from a 125 so I'm not a particularly fast rider ;D

    Gezzz!!!!

    that sounds like an horrible experience, what a $%@£%@£ of a guy!!!

    Some guys get their kicks of speaking to females like that, they like to feel superior... geezzz!!!

    If that had happen to my other half, believe me I would sort him out in no time and he would think twice before even thinking about training someone else again.

    that description is just insane, never heard of anything that bad

    Geeezzz.... thats not good. There must be some mechanism to recover your money.

    Have a chat with Able Training. Top guys, never heard any complaints.

    Just had a look at their website. Wouldnt inspire me a lot. Just had a friend asking me about training so i think i'll tell her to avoid that one. Word of mouth is a very powerful thing.

    Dont let it put you off Maz. Go do it!

    Thanks for all the recommendations WB people. We'll do our very best to get Maz back on the right track. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
    Unfortunately, there are still some cocks in our business, as Stu will vouch for. I know Ernie, and although I'm reluctant to comment, I wouldn't train with him. I don't take kindly to be being belittled all the time... >

    How do guys like that stay in business? People being too afraid to complain and get their money refunded?

    Good luck with the rest of your training Maz; like a lot of others on here, I highly recommend Able Training
