"Total Fraud." Posted 2024-09-21
Pros: No pro's only con's.

Parents please be aware.
We are scammed. I hope others don't fall for them.Overall: Total fraud.

After the first demo class, they will schedule a video call and they'll force you to take up the classes with discounts applicable only then.
They say that the course syllabus is very flexible and the content can be customized. Its totally wrong. Their committment and promises are fake. Dont trust them.
If you raise the issue initally about the syllabus content being wrong, the teachers will say to continue the classes and it will be rectified later. However they'll scam you later by saying that the money is fully non-refundable because of 5 classes (including practise classes) being completed, and its their policy to not refund anything.
The Academic Coordinator who first calls you and give you their personal contact number for any clarifications in the future, never picks up your phone again, after you pay the fees.
They are totally fake and non-trusted. Please don't fall for their scams.
We have done lots of follow-ups with many people in their company, written emails, yet we finally realized that we were scammed by the master-minds.
We are ashamed to tell that we are fooled by these crooks.
Parents, please don't trust PlanetSpark. They are here only to scam you and cheat you. -

"PlanetSpark" Posted 2024-05-27
Pros: No Response from the people. Once we joined they will not care about you. Don't Join in this platform. The worst platform. Just a cheating platform.
Cons: Response from them is very late. We cannot talk to them. If we Want to talk to them we have to raise a ticket or book an assured call back. But they will respond to you.
Overall: Worst experience. I am fighting for the refund now but they are not at all responding. Now, I have to consult lawyer to file a case against them.

"Big Scammers - Stay away people." Posted 2024-05-22
Pros: 1. None. When compared to other online tutoring services this India based teaching methods and material is out dated and not suitable to anyone on this Planet.
Cons: 1. Material is out dated.
2. Worst online tutoring service.
3. Youtube videos are better than their portal.
4. Double standards in terms of fee structure. Spend your hard earned money somewhere else unless you want to donate your money to this Junk.Overall: Class coordinator, Online Tutors are worst and very poor communication. Training material is worst and Teacher just go through the Slides and there is no enthusiasm. Changed tutor twice and took a break hoping to get a good tutor 3rd time. But each and every time worst tutor experience. These guys are worst. I don't know how anyone can give a good rating for PlanetSpark. They are either paid by Planespark or absolutely don't have time to look into what PlanetSpark teaching their kids.

Financial Aspect:
PlanetSpark conveniently hides refund details but their agents
don't mention about this but they promise anytime if classes are not suitable or want to discontinue PlanetSpark will refund for remaining sessions. So paid the full amount $1350 with the contract to repay if not satisfied the class.
Opened numerous tickets and approached them, but no one will respond and ghost you. Scammers, Scammers (Don't know the better word to describe).
Can share my contract and ticket numbers and chat conversations. I'm very disappointed with service and their double standard policies. Don't get fooled by their Facebook posts or online adds.
If you are planning to use PlanetSpark services or thinking of joining their team, you are sabotaging your career or your Childs valuable time. -

"Scam online platform - not good for foreign kids" Edited 2024-01-05
Pros: N/A.
Cons: I have joined PlanetSpark for public speaking class, after I attended two classes, I felt it would not be good for USA kids and also their curriculum is not updated with the real world. So I decided to withdraw the class and send out the email to proceed the refund process since I was in probation period. I didn’t receive any response from them afterwards. Even the account manager who was my point of contact for the class and customer service are not helping me to refund the money. I have sent couple of emails and multiple follow ups. I don’t receive response for last two months.
Overall: I think, PlanetSpark is not genuine for financial and won’t recommend for any foreign kids.

"This is a Scam !! " Posted 2023-07-12
Pros: None, as soon as you pay the fees in full, thats it, you get put in Ignore list. They stop responding and picking up your phone.
Cons: They are very responsive UP UNTIL you have made the payment in full, Looks like a scam.
Overall: I enrolled my son to improve this public speaking skills but just after weeks of the trial period ended and i made the full payment, everything went south. The teacher is not available most of the time resulting in un announces class cancellation. I opened multiple tickets to address this issue and a couple of other issues i was having but the they close the tickets as soon as that are opened without any resolution. No one picks up the phone there is absolutely no one that i can reach out to. I should have seen it coming with these over seas scammers that asked me to pay in FULL.

"PlanetSpark review" Posted 2023-04-13
Pros: No benefits. They are just trying to create a market for parents who are afraid that their kids are not getting enough exposure outside of their curriculum. Their courses are not strong enough.
Cons: They will enroll you and then no correspondence after that. My money is stuck from the last 4 months.
Overall: Very bad experience. They enrolled and after the trial classes ended we stopped the classes and we are yet to get our money back after 4 months of follow ups. The team that sells you will not pick up your phone.

"Very unethical and unprofessional, stay away from PlanetSpark" Posted 2023-03-08
Pros: Immediately jump into a call if customer is ready for paying them even in India midnight. Give all commitments only until they receive the money from customer.
Cons: Do not care about customer money. Unprofessional as they block your numbers when they owe you money.
Overall: Very very bad, unethical, unprofessional, do not loose your money. Believe these people are using education to do money laundering business.

"PlanetSpark review" Posted 2023-02-23
Pros: None. There was nothing good. The classes we took were utter waste of time and money. They are cheating by showing videos of 2-3 kids who might naturally be talented.
Cons: Had a very bad experience. As stated by many others, they keep pestering the parent to enroll right after the first call. But once the fees is paid, the so called “Admission manager” stops picking the calls. The team is unresponsive and they do not bother what is happening in the classes. The course content and curriculum is also not up to the mark and they copy paste without understanding the need of the child. The teacher they assign has no idea about what to teach and uses google and youtube to teach. When i asked to change the curriculum according to my child, they wasted another 3 classes and blame on the teacher. Warning to all the parents not to fall for the trap. There are better options available elsewhere.
Overall: Very bad. Feel cheated and lost money. Worst customer service and no response to emails after fees is paid.
