ABCO TECHNOLOGY, ALL OF THEM THIEVES, DISHONEST, SHAMELESS, SCAMS, LOW LIFE, BITCHES LOS ANGELES California
I registered for a certification program with these scams(abco technology) and they eagerly started the process in order to get paid, that's their only motivation. When I was half way through the first class, they canceled the next class in the nick of time, so I asked for a refund, which they obviously did not want to pay, took them to court and they were ordered to pay much more of what they were willing to pay.
However I still took a loss since I had the pay the difference, I wasted my time to re-start in another school. Just going through the whole ordeal is stressing, I had to pay court fees, my time, getting my mind off my initial goal to study, they should be liable for much more. What's more their school do not have any state of the art equiptment or the proper tools to teach a class. The classroom they had me going to, only had a tripod with a little board, no overhead or extra computer for the teacher, that classroom was the same computer lab, which means one has to check is the room is available, also they did not allow printing.
Their website and what they tell you about their school is very deceiving, not even close to the reality. They are not capable of delivering a professional class, they are even able to keep a class schedule. It's like all of them share the view on things, even the receptionist. They all seem to be from Pakistan, or close countries, another reason as to why they all side and have the same attitude.
Do not go to them ever, spread the word, do yourself and others a favor.

Once I went to court they lied about how many classes I had taken, they also lied to the consumer affairs where I cited them prior to the court date. They mentioned the solutions they had offered me, but the truth is that they were not able to deliver the class and they expected the student to adjust the schedule at the school convenience when if fact the right solution would've been to bring a substitute teacher for the class. I have seen the other reviews and it's all truth, they don't call back for refunds or complains, they deny being there when one calls for them, I too left phone messages that were ignored, their typical answers were:"she left for the day", "he just went to a meeting", "she is coming later", "he just stepped out", or if one is lucky to get them on the phone and ask for something, anything they would say: "you have to talk to him(anybody else)", "the accountant is the one who does that","I will call you", etc, etc.
And to make things worse, despite charging a lot, they will provide you with cheap black/white copies for books and they also make their cd copies for software. Like most people I decided to pay them with the idea to save time and get a certification in a short amount of time, but now I know better to take a little longer but get a class from a community college instead, they are really by far professional people who follow state guidelines and regulations.
