Review of Codecademy


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Very Unhelpful service

I am a university graduate and was looking for a new career path and came across this. On the phone they convinced me that this was possible to do alongside full time work and a masters which is not possible. The starting steps are unclear and for the first month I was actually doing the wrong course which therefore led to added stress regarding meeting deadlines etc. I have had multiple emails with them back and fourth explaining my situation and told them that look this is just not for me and it’s not feasible for me to do this course alongside the Masters and work (like they told me).I understand the refund policy I have just asked them for a little bit of help regarding at least a partial refund as I haven’t even touch any of the materials needed to pass the course. I didn’t want to come to giving this review but this seems like this could be the only way to get through to them. They are not having any of it and now I have paid £1400 for something I don’t have the time for nor even have the passion to do as I realised that this course just isn’t for me. Also, if you pay monthly you can cancel the subscription anytime, but when u pay in full this completely irradiates the chance of a refund? Seems ludicrous.

Really unhappy with the service as a whole (both customer service and the learning tools provided).
