Has anyone had any experience with Two Worlds United, a foreign exchange placement service for high school students? I am beyond the frustration level trying to get them to acknowledge me since they failed to place my daughter last September and will not refund me any of the thousands of dollars fees that were all paid in advance. I mean they will not answer e-mail or phone messages (they do not have live people on the phone, just leave your name and number and we will call you back). When we were applying and paying they were always available.
I think, Josh-dad, that the reason all these people are on this thread expressing concerns (including Josh) about TWU means they are the ones looking for answers. Curlyben is a moderator, not one of your consumers. You could answer all their questions directly right here!
Sr. Josh Dad, seems like you need to calm down, Rickj hasn't posted a thing about your "organization," but several moderators and individual clients of yours have asked you to answer some direct questions.
Address your response to me and the rest of the board and we'll go form there.
This whole discussion needs to be out in the open and free for all to see.
The need for my personal contact information is odd indeed and rather underhand.
BTW for your information I'm in the UK and so have no dealings with TWU.
In this case I'm the most unbiased person here.
So fire away what have you got to say ?
Ps there is NO Mr in my name, just Curlyben will do.
Joshualite, I congratulate you for locating my office number that is very public information. I manage apartments for a living and help out on this site because I believe in it's mission.
If you have something productive to say then say it.
PS. I had never heard of TWU until I saw this thread. The frustration of these people led me to do a little digging and I see their frustration: The company has no email address and only a phone number. Out of curiosity I've tried it a few times at varying hours. Never got an answer; just voicemail.
I have been watching this thred only because my sister-in-law is considering this for my niece and I have been trying to talk her out of it. I think now I have the proof I needed.
