    We went for an assessment a few weeks before Dore went into Administration...

     Surely, the team knew that there were problems, but we were encouraged to sign on the dotted line. Why couldn't Dore have been upfront about the situation? A lot of people are mindful of the great help to their children, but coming into the program at the time before the company has gone into receivership is not fair on people who can't afford the program. As it is, we paid through the finance house and now we owe a debt to them, and we're not sure what support we can expect.

     A part of me feels that we have been duped into paying monies for services that haven't been altogether honoured. The worst part is that one of our siblings isn't willing to participate in the excercises which is very frustrating considering that we have paid out money we can ill afford. Is there any way we can recoup that money? It's like giving money away for nothing!

     I know it's sour grapes, but if Dore had stopped taking on more customers, instead of welcoming everyone with open arms, things might have been different for a lot of people.

    Hi Hackbridge - this message was posted on another thread.

    Hi, please go onto the consumerdirect.gov.uk website. There is a phone number for you and if you ring them (or as I did filled in an enquiry form via email on their website) they will call you back and give you some advice. They were very good and really knew what they were talking about. It's worth giving them a ring as they put my mind at rest that I was covered if anything happened and that I wouldn't lose all my money.

     Thanks for that information it is much appreciated.

     Just want to say that we have nothing personal againt Dore, it is just that we are having financial difficulties and this has compounded the problem.

     Thanks again.
