    Had a chat with one of the ex-trainers at Pts, he told me he left about 4 months ago because he had been stitched up was his expession.

    He lives close to the training building and said it was shut plus another building had closed also.

    There was only one trainer left just before it shut.

    Considering I was emailed a few months ago from them to set me up with a website, clutching straws I suppose.

    If you call their centre now, they're open again?!?!?! And they deny any knowledge of going into receivership. They say they closed their warrington centre as they found bigger premises in Harlow. Though they're ready to take your money again by the looks of it!

    Did anybody who did training with them get stung or is it just their supplier type creditors and the likes?!

    Christ only knows what's going on right now with this and Diamond.

    I was on their course in Harlow just before Christmas. I was very happy with it!

    Looking at what happened with Diamond it might be advisable to pay for any course on your credit card and in part payments, ie. pay an initial deposit to secure your place and pay the balance later.
