Discuss Access 2 Trade Careers Closing Down in the Electrician Courses : Electrical Quals area at ElectriciansForums.net
While i feel SORRY for anyone who has parted with hard earned cash on this,i cant help but thinking,oh well all the poeple who looked at getting into the industry through the back door short courses will now have to do it the hard way like i did,working a 3 shift system and doing college at the same time
No i've not heard anything. I have spoken to my credit card company and it looks quite hopeful for getting some money back and i have filled out the relevant forms / declarations and posted them off, so it will be about 2 weeks before i hear any more.
Does anyone know if barclays have come up with an alternative provider yet?

im the same boat,,, with access to trades im with barclays over the five years option 115.25 a month,,,, had NO CONTACT AT ALL FROM THEM, OR BARCLAY'S, i found out by ukplumbers forum, ive found a provider in my local area, so i would not have to pay for accom an travel when doing assesments, but barclays sayThey do have some of my money! Unfortunately Barclays have paid them and I now owe on a Barclays loan. I received no notification of insolvency but my freind who's also on the course did by email and contacted me. On checking the website there's a 4 line announcement which is a disgracefully small amount of info when you're still paying out for a large loan.
Up until now they've given me a high quality of training and had a great and very busy training centre so I can't quite see what went wrong. I'll call them tomorrow for some info but I can't imagine I'll have much luck getting through.
Does anyone know what rights we have now as far as claiming anything back goes? I was lucky enough to have completed my 2392 and 2382 recently and providing they sent off for my certificates it's not a complete disaster. My freind wasn't so lucky.
Will the collapse of my training company reflect badly if I tell prospective employers do you think?
AND ONLY THEM,,,,anyway hope u all ave a gud un, cos im off 2 get absolutly plastered, ttfnI MUST GO WITH WHO THEY PROVIDE ONLY
Have you received your certificates? How long ago did you complete your 17th edition?
The only thing I can think of is to ask for your evidence.
Hi everyone, I finished week 4 of the professional electricians course at ACCES2 T C the friday before it all colapsed.
That left me to find a way to sit the C&G2391 theory exam. I have just done the exam but C&G won't clarify whether or not a claim has been put forward on my behalf for the 2391 practical and the 2377. If any of you have worked for ACCESS perhaps you might know if the paper work is sent off immediately the week is complete or could it still be lost in a filing cabinet or computer drive somewhere inside the building at Hartlebury.
Thanks Flo,
I take it you worked there....I'm so sorry for what happened to you guys.
Every member of staff I came into contact with there was brilliant. Hope youi
all get re-settled soon.
Best regards Steve
Hello,
I signed up for Access 2 Trade mid November 09 and was just about to take my first piratical two weeks before it went into liquidation, so luckily I was not up there when it happened, wasting money and holiday time for nothing.
Obviously the news was shocking and disappointing!
Anyway, I paid the full amount up front, all my savings etc. I decided to pay it off on credit card for the extra protection 'just in case' then paid my credit card off in full the next month.
As soon as I got the news I called up and made a claim to my credit card company. Today I just received everything back in full!! *wipes sweat off fore head*.
I know this does not really 'help' anybody, but if you did pay on credit card, then there is a good chance you will get the money back. Its a totally different contract to the Barclay loan (even though my credit card is with Barclays).
Anyway, best of luck for everybody!! Really hope you all sort something out.
Anyway, for me its back to the researching and deciding which other company to trust with my money and give my training!
