UPDATE from PMI Education — Another person scammed by PMI! AND check out my blog and feel free to tell your story there: http://scammedbypmi.blogspot.com/ The more people post, the more damage we can give to them and they will stop these atrocious business practices!

I called PMI Education again in hopes to arrive at some sort of resolution that would be somewhat acceptable. I was contacted 2 days later by Thayne Gooch from Quality Department and explain to him that I only received 2 coaching sessions and that I would agree for them to keep about $200 for them, and refund the rest of my money, ie over $9, 000. He refused stating that there were many products that they provided which cannot be refunded. I wonder what products they provided which cannot be returned. I can return the CD and they can cancel the access code for some useless PMI toolbar which did not provide me with any useful information. But Thayne claimed that he simply cannot refund the money even though the sales manager Dave misrepresented what exactly is going to be PMI's involvement in this venture. He drilled me and was convincing me for almost 2 hours to agree to this program after making numerous representations and assurances. Thayne did not acknowledge unfair trade practices PMI Education uses, and stated that Dave was simply doing his job to make sure I sign up with the program.
Thayne offered me to refund $400 in return for agreeing not to hold PMI responsible for the rest of the money! That is unheard of! Even their refunds are with strings attached!

Ah, Yes! They get a bunch of them/us. I find a few individuals here but bet there are hundreds. You should see the nice building they have in Utah. I don't do business with anyone from that state anymore. Sorry, I have been burned twice by companies there and this is in the past 10 years.

They have a plan and you making money isn't part of it.

"The person who really wants to do something finds a way; the other person finds an excuse." ~Author Unknown

My experience has been that PMI is exactly what it says it is: An educational program designed to provide the student with knowledge and best business practices so that the knowledge can be applied as effectively as possible. They told me that some students mistakenly assume that PMI will send them a link that they can click on and money will start flying out of the computer. Probably the same people who blamed teachers and professors for bad grades and test scores. Those of us who applied ourselves are probably the ones who took accountability for the grades we earned, be they good or bad. Same principle applies here.

Do a Google search for "PMI Success Stories" and take a look at people who "found a way" instead of "found an excuse".
