Stay away from this scam Sage training…

Stay away from this scam Sage training company ( legal action should be apply on them )

Earlier this year, I got a call from a so-called “recruitment agency” offering a Sage course + work placement in London (minimum 8 hours/week). They made it sound legit and asked for £1,500 upfront, saying if I wanted to take the test quickly, I’d have to pay more. If not, I’d wait 3 weeks and “probably fail,” then pay another £150 for a retake.

After I paid, they stopped answering the phone most of the time. I had to chase them non-stop. Eventually, they sent a guy from Glasgow who claimed to be an accountant—but only gave me 10 minutes of training a day. He’s now pulled out because they didn’t pay him either.

Whole thing feels like a cash grab scam. Super unprofessional, misleading, and stressful. Just a warning to others: don’t fall for it. Do your research and avoid this company.

We are sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction, but your claims are factually incorrect and misleading.

We do not pressure anyone into payment or threaten legal action without due cause—all students agree to clear terms and conditions before enrolling, and all payments and cancellation policies are communicated in advance.

Every student receives full access to the advertised course content and support, including practical assessments and placement opportunities. The placements are unpaid, remote experiences as clearly stated before sign-up.

Our support team responds to all genuine queries promptly—if you have not received a reply, please ensure you are contacting us via our official channels and providing accurate details.

We do not and cannot remove independent public reviews, even negative ones—we believe in full transparency and welcome honest feedback from genuine students.

If you are a real student, please contact us directly with your full name and course details so we can investigate and resolve your concerns.

False and defamatory claims harm not only our company but the hundreds of students who rely on our services for career development. We reserve the right to pursue action against those who deliberately spread false information.

To anyone reading: Please reach out to our team or view verified testimonials for an accurate picture of our programmes and outcomes.

Really scummy to give people hope that they're getting a job they applied for. They cold called me from a dodgy telecommunications number and tried to pitch a course to me under the guise of being payed straight after, a measly £20,000. Say you don't have to pay for the course until you're working but that they need a deposit to secure your place.

There is no proper communication

There is no proper communication. They don’t reply to emails. They first convince you to pay, by telling there can be exams whenever you want. Then they ask you to wait for month just to sit for exams. Quality of content is poor. I wouldn’t recommend to anyone. In the beginning before service they ask you for 5 star reviews don’t believe in that.

Thank you for sharing your concerns with us. We genuinely value feedback from our students, as it helps us improve our services.

I would like to clarify our exam scheduling process. On average, we implement a wait time of 4 to 6 weeks before exams. This timeframe is designed to give students adequate time to prepare, which has proven to contribute to higher pass rates. Additionally, this approach helps us manage the onboarding process for students who have completed their exams, ensuring they are effectively transitioned to our careers team for job placement.

Allowing students to sit for exams at their convenience could potentially lead to increased failure rates and overwhelm our careers team, which would ultimately lower the standards of our service. We are committed to maintaining a high-quality learning experience, and this is why we have structured our exam process in this way.

We apologise for any communication issues you experienced and appreciate your patience as we work to address this. Your feedback is important to us, and we are continually striving to improve our responsiveness.

Thank you for bringing these matters to our attention.

Waste of money, please avoid!

In August 2023, I was approached by a representative from Hampton Cross and subsequently enrolled in their course, as I was struggling to find relevant experience in the accounting sector. Despite initial promises, I found the course content to be outdated and comparable to any standard online course. The examinations consisted solely of multiple-choice questions, offering limited depth.

During the enrollment process, I was assured a work placement with a company based in Canary Wharf, but I was ultimately assigned a remote placement, which did not provide the hands-on practical experience I was expecting. While I did gain some relevant knowledge and skills from the placement, I was left disappointed by the disparity between what was promised and what was delivered.

Throughout the course, I was never assigned a tutor, despite being assured one. Communication with the company was slow and unresponsive, often requiring me to send multiple follow-up emails before receiving any reply. This lack of support left me feeling frustrated and neglected. Additionally, I submitted my CV and personal statement to the careers team for feedback and improvement, as suggested, but I never received any assistance or revised documents.

A year later, having completed the work placement, I have yet to receive any job support from Hampton Cross, despite being told during the initial interview that they would assist me in securing a role within the accounting sector. My attempts to follow up via email have gone unanswered, and there has been no acknowledgment of my progress.

In conclusion, I would strongly advise against paying for this course. The promises made were not fulfilled, and the experience was not worth the £1,600 fee. You would be better off pursuing a standard online course or exploring internship opportunities through a different provider. Overall, I am deeply disappointed with Hampton Cross and regret the time and money invested.

Dear Amandeep,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with Hampton Cross. We genuinely value all feedback, as it helps us improve our services and better support our students.

We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. At Hampton Cross, we strive to provide comprehensive and up-to-date course content tailored to the evolving accounting sector. We continuously review and update our curriculum to ensure it remains relevant and beneficial for our students.

Regarding work placements, we guarantee remote placements to provide flexibility and accessibility for all our students. However, we understand the value of hands-on, in-person experience and are happy to arrange hybrid placements based on availability and individual performance. These placements are designed and overseen by our chartered accountants to ensure that the tasks are meaningful and contribute to your professional growth.

It's important to note that while we offer work placements and robust support, job placements are performance-based and cannot be guaranteed. Our aim is to equip you with the skills and experience needed to secure a role in the accounting sector, but ultimately, employment outcomes depend on various factors, including individual effort and market conditions.

We regret that you experienced delays in communication and did not receive the assigned tutor or the feedback you sought on your CV and personal statement. Providing timely and effective support is a priority for us, and we apologise for any shortcomings in this area. We are actively working to improve our communication processes to ensure that all students receive the assistance they need promptly.

Your feedback is invaluable, and we would like to address your concerns directly. Please reach out to our support team at support@hamptoncross.com, so we can better understand your experience and work towards a resolution.

Thank you again for your feedback. We wish you all the best in your future endeavours and hope to have the opportunity to support you more effectively.

Best regards,

Experience at Hampton Cross

Hampton Cross has equipped me with the necessary tools and materials to navigate the course effectively. The content was clear and easily understandable. I would like to express my gratitude to my mentor, Ryan Martin, who consistently demonstrated professionalism and delivered information in a well-structured and comprehensive manner, making it easy to grasp. His excellent management and genuine care for students greatly enhanced my experience at Hampton Cross.

However, I would suggest that the company consider updating the Excel program, as some inputs are not current or compatible with iOS. While I have not yet participated in the placement, I am confident that it will contribute significantly to my professional growth.

I recently enrolled in a flexible course at HamptonCross, and I couldn't be more pleased with my experience. The program offers an excellent education into what it takes to become a paralegal, providing comprehensive and practical knowledge that's crucial for anyone looking to enter this field.

A special shoutout to Ryan Martin, who has been incredible throughout the entire process. From the very beginning, Ryan kept me well-informed, explained the course details clearly, and was always available to assist with any questions or concerns I had. His dedication and support made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable.

If you're considering a career as a paralegal, I highly recommend HamptonCross and their fantastic team!

When I enrolled for Human Resources…

When I enrolled for the Human Resources Training Programme with Hampton Cross, I was sceptical about the credibility of the program. Coming to UK with lots of experience earned from abroad, I was looking for a programme that would help me adapt to the local employment landscape. Hampton Cross came to the rescue. Their programme is quite detailed the content is great. It gives its students solid grounding on the practical elements and nuances of HR practice in the UK. What makes it more exciting is the work-related training segment where candidates experience the real taste of HR practice through on-the-job placement. The programme is quite affordable with very flexible payment terms. In my case, they structured a financing facility that suited my circumstances. The course content's availability online affords students flexibility to study at their own free time and pace. The support from Hampton Cross staff throughout the programme was guaranteed regardless of time of the day. My special.appreciation and gratitude goes to Gareth Telfer who was always available to assist me from day one, checking on me regularly on progress, responding to my emails even in the middle of the night. I recommend this programme to new comers to the profession, those with foreign earned experience and those experienced horses who want a refresher course to reconnect with latest HR trends.

I graduated last year and had a lot of difficulty finding a job due to not having any experience. I was contacted by Hampton Cross who offered me there legal programme which at the time was something new to me, I never really heard of anything like it. The legal programme had an in-depth curriculum and detailed practical assignments which prepared me for the real world of a paralegal, when I started my placement I was comfortable and able to be a valuable member of the team. I'm now working as a paralegal, and it all started with the programme offered by Hampton Cross. Highly recommended!
