      Complaints have been sent to the company from 4/25/23 until 1/23/24 without resolution. I requested escalation to the manager of the company and have been denied and ignored. Please forward my complaint to headquarters for review. As they should be made aware of the lack of communication between their employees and consumers.

      I purchased the ****** (a subsidiary of this company) ******* package on April 29, 2022 through the flex payment plan. My employer is now wanting to pay the balance in full by check. I have called multiple times to the ****** customer support and received so information or help on where my employer can send the check to pay my balance in full. I have tried to find someone higher ** in authority than the phone operators, but no one is able to tell me who to contact. I have also sent in an online request to be contacted and was never emailed back. In order for my employer to receive a tax deduction, he has to pay by check and no one is helping me to find a solution.

      Adtalem completed its divestiture of ****** to the ************* on March 10,2022, prior to the purchase of the complainant. Since Adtalem no longer owns ****** and did not own ****** at the time of purchase, we are unable to assist.

      As a prior student at **** university, which is owned by adtalem, I have been charged for electricity which have been added to my student account. I have repeatedly requested for copies of these bills, and the calculation to accompany them to substantiate these charges. So far I have received bills for 3 of the 4 months (October-January) requested, but none of the bills match the amount charged. When I have asked for either matching bills, or a calculation to accompany the bills to match the amount charged, i have received no response. I have also received two emails in response to my January request stating they are attaching the bills to the email, and there was no attachment. I have responded both time with my entire request, as well as notifying them they have still not sent any **** for ******** with no response. Last week, I received emails from their account resolution department, and i responded with my request for substantiation, and received no response. I have tried contacting all above departments numerous times by both email and telephone, with no response. The original email from the resolution department contained an implicit threat to send the account to collections if it is not paid. I have retained all emails back and forth between these departments. I have attached the student account with the "Utility Overages" along with the bills the school has provided that are apparently associated with the charges.

      Adtalem Global Education ("Adtalem") takes student concerns seriously and intends to investigate and address this concern. However, according to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), Adtalem cannot respond to this students concerns until we receive the attached FERPA release form, signed and returned. This will authorize Adtalem to share information with the BBB.

      Thank you for notifying us of this students complaint.

      On Wednesday, August 29th, 2021, I was reminded that I was required to order a Tech Kit from DeVry University's Bookstore for my class in the September semester of 2021. The total for the Kit with regular ground shipping was $206.96, which I authorized to be charged to my student account and be withdrawn when my ********** hits in the upcoming weeks. I received an order confirmation number, Order ********, for the Tech Kit. The Bookstore's FAQ states that Domestic Orders (orders shipped in *****************) take up to 24 hours to process and ship, while Internation Orders may take up to 48 hours to process and ship. I contacted the Bookstore via their online form three times, asking each time that a person call me with more information on my order and why it is still marked as processing. I have only received contact via email, each time being a response of "please be patient" and information that was freely available in the **** My class started today, and I don't have my items.
