Good encounter
I love CIFA customer service, which is well attentive and ready to help all the time. I cannot forget my first contact with Mr. Mike. He is so attentive and guided. I was most encouraged. It will help me improve more on this. The surprise package was Hannah; she really is a source of encouragement. I will read more. It was a wonderful experience. Thank you.

Great Customer Service
I recently dealt with Mike in customer services regarding support I needed due to some unexpected events leaving me in a spot of bother. Mike couldn’t have helped anymore, he dealt with everything great and I really felt he was doing all he could to help me. I have been left feeling very content with the resolution.

Too expensive in my opinion.
They give you access to PDFs, but if you want access to webinars and such, you must pay extra for an already expensive course. I recommend shopping around other providers and perhaps more relevant courses out there...
If you cancel early within two weeks and ask for a refund, they will do it but charge you a 5% banking administration fee, which I have to admit I have never ever encountered before. Things to think about...
I also find it strange that EVERY review on Trustpilot gives 5 stars, but maybe I'm just an exception and could not see the 'quality'.
Also, please think twice if you were led to an online course by a recruiter. Do your own research on what further qualifications are 'necessary' for your desired career.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your experience with CIFA. We appreciate your candid input, as it helps prospective learners make informed decisions.
We understand your concerns about the pricing structure and the additional costs for webinars and other features. Cost is an important consideration for many learners, and it's essential to find a course that offers the right balance of affordability and value. We apologise for any inconvenience the banking administration fee may have caused; we'll look into ways to make this policy clearer for our students.
Regarding the five-star reviews on Trustpilot, it's important to clarify that all our Trustpilot reviews are genuine. We take the authenticity of reviews seriously, and our Trust Integrity Team diligently monitors and ensures the credibility of each review. If any review were found to be inauthentic or violates Trustpilot's guidelines, it would be promptly removed. We believe in the transparency of customer feedback, both positive and constructive, as it helps us grow and improve.
In the context of the financial industry, it's worth emphasising the importance of knowing about the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and its regulatory framework. The FCA plays a crucial role in ensuring the integrity and transparency of financial markets. Being informed about the FCA and its regulations is not only a professional requirement but also an ethical responsibility.
Additionally, companies in the financial sector often view individuals who lack knowledge about the FCA as a liability. This is because compliance with FCA regulations is paramount in avoiding fines, penalties, and potential legal consequences. Staying informed about the FCA's guidelines can help professionals safeguard their careers and protect their organisations from costly compliance issues.
For further information on the FCA and its latest updates, you can visit their website
https://www.fca.org.uk/news/news-stories/2023-fines.
Your point about recruiters is well taken. It's crucial for learners to conduct their research and determine the relevance of further qualifications for their career goals, especially with FCA knowledge in mind.
We appreciate your input, and we're committed to improving our offerings based on the valuable feedback we receive. If you have any further concerns or suggestions, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team. We hope you find the right course that not only meets your needs but also helps you fulfil your CPD requirements, stay compliant with the FCA, and advance in your financial career.
Best regards,
CIFA

Dit is Trustpilot
Iedereen kan een review op Trustpilot achterlaten n.a.v. een ervaring met een bedrijf. Gebruikers hebben het recht om hun feedback op elk moment te wijzigen of te verwijderen, en elke gepubliceerde review is zichtbaar zolang het account van de betreffende gebruiker actief is.
Bedrijven kunnen reviews verzamelen via geautomatiseerde uitnodigingen. Deze reviews worden als geverifieerd bestempeld, omdat het evident is dat ze op echte ervaringen gebaseerd zijn.

Verificatie helpt ervoor te zorgen dat echte mensen de reviews schrijven die je op Trustpilot ziet staan.
