I made the mistake of signing up with Qualitas for an LGV Training course, the usual promises were made i.e. Driver shortages, 80, 000 jobs etc. Unfortunately the course never materialised but the money definately went.
After this I did a bit of research into the company and the man behind all this who is John Dawson. It would appear John has a lot of history of taking peoples money and doing a runner. His illustrious career starts with Amraf training plc which collapsed back in even as the business was failing they were still taking payments from students for the courses with no ability to fulfill the training. After the collapse people who lost 2000 received 2 from the administrators, despite this John paid himself 500, 000 in one year from the company. The collapse was so big it was raised as a question to the secretary of state for education. Please go to this website for an investigation carried out by the mirror
After this he set up Qualitas and applied the same ethics as before by taking peoples money with no intention of fulfilling the training. This company then became Sterling again applying the same ethics and now he is trading as Flair LGV Training, can't imagine whats going to happen next.
I am shocked that a person who prays on people, often they are using redundency money etc to pay for these courses to get back into work, is allowed to continue unchecked. Please use his new training company website to contact him if you have been effected by his actions through his various companies. You could also ask for your money back at the same time though I did try this but to no avail.
