Guess whose back.back again Jack is back .........my response to this company is ; Why are you adressing your rebuttal to Jack when your complains keeps accumulating . It's not because you say on a contract that there is no refund that not refund should be given if the company does no delivered !! I did hired an attorney and got a refund , just consider yourself lucky that I just stopped there........ I could have taken you to court if I wanted to.
just here for IERF

The IERF response here is their standard blurb "40 years of experience" - "over 200,000 evaluations" etc which is great cause for concern given that they cannot do evaluations properly! I am in the process of filing suit against them for exactly the same issues raised above. They are hideously incompetent, unable to provide real evaluations, provide contradictory evaluations, meander around equivalencies, make up "equivalent" courses that have no basis or existence in the American education system and basically just reiterate the qualifications of the person applying - for that they charge you hundreds of dollars.
I have petitioned the California State Bar to remove IERF from its list of approved evaluators and am now having to pay for another evaluation by a professional organization. My personal advice would be to steer completely clear of this disaster zone of an organization. They are unprofessional and I expect a battle to get my money back for an evaluation they provided me where they could not even get the law school I attended correct - despite my having provided with the transcripts from that very school!!
avoid them people - like the plague!! I actually signed up here specfically to respond to the IERF rebuttal - and just so patrons are aware - the IERF CANNOT rely upon their terms and conditions to circumven their contractual obligations under the law - I would recommend taking them to small claims court to get a refund - if your claim is legitimate, the courts will not hesitate to rule in your favor.

Because IERF only learned of this posting recently and we do not have all the customer details, we cannot speak to the specifics of this posting, but would like to respond because IERF takes any customer complaint very seriously. Please note the procedure that IERF follows in evaluating foreign credentials is based on the Foundation's nearly 40 years of experience and expertise in the field of credential evaluation and international education research. We believe that it is because of the latter that IERF is highly respected in this field by academic institutions, state licensing boards, professional organizations and governmental agencies, alike. Also, IERF has been a member of the Better Business Bureau since 1992. In light of the fact that we have evaluated over 200,000 reports, we are particularly proud of the Better Business Bureau's excellent A rating of this Foundation. Jack may not be aware; however, this rating is based on the low number of claims that are lodged as well as the manner in which any claim submitted to the Better Business Bureau is addressed by this Foundation. In addition, as a Charter Member of the National Association of Credentials Evaluation Services (NACES), the primary recognition body for credential services in the United States, which sets and promotes standards of excellence in the profession, it is important for Jack to understand and appreciate that there is a set procedure in place for the evaluation of credentials. Lastly, by signing the application, Jack acknowledged that he accepted IERF's terms and conditions. The documentation that is required to be submitted as well as our no refund policy is clearly stated on the application form and also on our website.
