      I addition to the poor local facilities, the corporate administration is unresponsive, ill-informed, appalling to deal with, chaotic in their familiarity with local issues, and unpredictable in their interactions with parents. The local facility my daughter attends is overwhelmingly unresponsive, unprofessional, and ineffective. The decision to enroll at Bright Horizons was truly regrettable and, quite frankly, an ill-informed decision.

      My hospital started using this company. First they paid my 150 a month to my student loans. The. This year they have denied me multiple times because they say my information I am uploading is incomplete. I look at the document from ****** and then upload to bright horizon, I examine the document again and it is complete on their end that I upload to. I have called this company and had multiple interactions with them over my incomplete documents. At this point I dont know what to do so I quit the service. They are not helpful at all and rather condescending in replys. I am a medical worker so I am not stupid I. Any way, but they sure do make me feel that way. In short I dont recommend this company.

      The contact that is received by this company doesnt help, and when contacted through the number found in ******, which isnt the correct office confirmed by the employee that answered, they are still not helpful. The documents that they request and that my employer request are downloaded and uploaded to this companys site, and they reject it. This document is examined prior to upload and post upload and found to be the same document. Your response to the complaint confirms your non action so thank you and know that I have closed my account with you and will further inform others of my experience with Btright Horizons.

      They should rebrand to TrashHorizons, they are imposible to deal with their business model consist on charging employers for services they constantly refuse to provide. Backup care is a nightmare, their website is constantly down, so you never know when can you put a reservation in.Bank of America should audit them and either provide another option or just cut off the benefit as is of NO USE to resolve care issues. Employees OF BRIGHT hORIZONS are inconsistent and inefficient.ZERO STARS IS WHAT THEY REALLY DESERVE

      I cannot even give this company 1 star! I have spent the last nine months trying to get this company to do its job with little to NO success! Every employee that I have spoken with, and believe me I have been through several, has a different response than the last one. This should not be complicated as this tuition repayment assistance is a part of my employment contract but yet I have to live chat with them and listen as they invent new rules and policy on a monthly basis. Nine months later and I have only managed to get TWO payments out of them! And in the meantime, the interest on my loans continues to grow. I have done everything Bright Horizons EdAssist has asked me to do and yet they still manage to find a reason (or lie) as to why they will not accept my request for payment. This has been an awful experience, and I have lost hours of my life that I will never get back because of this company! Thank you.

      Bright Horizons services are offered through my employer. Just this year I've requested back-up care from them days if not weeks in advance five times. Four of those times were unsuccessful and I had to care for my kids while trying to work. Each of the following have happened at least once: 1) Reservation was confirmed and a caretaker assigned who never showed up. 2) Reservation was confirmed and a caretaker was assigned, but then the evening before the caretaker becomes unavailable. They offer to reimburse me if I find my own care, which is nearly impossible given the short notice. 3) A caretaker is never found to fill the reservation. I've spoken to their ****************** before. They were friendly and took down my complaint, but I have yet to be convinced that things have improved. They are unreliable.

      I will give them 0 Stars, I just have to put at least 1. I am trying to get my tuition assistance, they have a 30 day window after the 1st day of classes and it has not let me add the document i need for multiple weeks, it just says unexpected error, please try again later and now its past the deadline so if my managers cannot help me fix this I am going to quit, and I urge anyone who has bright horizons benefits to quit your job if you think you want to use benefits.

      Don't rely on these people for child care because they will literally not do their job. They had my in-home care request sitting on "awaiting confirmation" until 30 minutes before it was due to start. Then they called me and said "uhhhhhhhh we don't have anyone who can come, uhhhhhhhhh you can use out-of-network care and get reimbursed yeaaahhhhh" as if I just had an extra babysitter waiting around looking for work. So I had to drag my two daughters (aged 2 and 1) to a meeting after relying on them to do their job, which they didn't do. It would have been better if they had been honest with me a few days ago and said they had nobody rather than waiting until the LITERAL *********** and leaving me in the lurch. Complete incompetence.

      The biggest headache that anyone would have the misfortune to deal with. You keep getting bounced around between representatives. You cant talk to anyone directly. They wont look into quick and timely resolutions to your issues. They are bound by policy to respond in a comments string in 1-3 business days. They will not admit fault for any mistakes made. If you read below at others issues/reviews, these are the exact same issues that I have experienced as well. Incompetent, poorly trained representatives, poorly managed business. I have had to call numerous times, talk to numerous people, submit numerous comments, open up a support ticket, and still cant get a clear resolution for their mistake.

      Bright Horizons partners with my employer, providing tuition discounts for specific colleges and tuition reimbursement. December 14th, which is today, is the last day to submit claims so that students can get reimbursed for tuition costs. However, their website has been down for several days before today. I have spent the last two days reaching out to their customer service. Their representatives cannot provide any updates on website maintenance, if students will be penalized for their outage, or if there will be an extension given to those affected by the outage. I spoke with a representative named ********, who was very **** with me and kept repeating the same information. I was polite with her, albeit panicking a bit because of the issues with the website. It seemed she had no empathy for the struggling students she was paid to help. Bright Horizons has disabled all of its customer service phone lines so that no one can reach out to them. I was able to call them earlier this morning, but now when I try to call, it does not ring through. They do not respond to any social media messages either. As far as I can tell, Bright Horizons is avoiding taking accountability for its outage and will likely not be extending its deadline for tuition reimbursement. Writing this review is a last resort, as I don't have any other way of reaching out to them or advocating for myself. I'm very disappointed in the lack of willingness to help people despite their promise to help "promising employees with a clear path to career development while helping to develop the skills".

      I needed to use back up crisis care when the hurricane hit ******* back in October. I was told that my employers benefit would give me 100$ as compensation for each day of care, in writing. I submitted all of the appropriate documentation only to receive the largest back and forth I've ever had with a company. I never report to the BBB, but ultimately this example warrants it! A endless amount of calls where I'm told a different excuse why they are waiting to pay me back for those days. I was even put with their compliance team to PROVE that the assistance was given in those days. All appropriate documentation was given, approval was given by the compliance team. I have, in writing, where they stated it would take 2-3 business weeks to get the money sent out. Still nothing...when I call in to the customer help line, I'm told a new number of time to wait each time and the ********* didn't even lie. She simply asked, "how would you like to resolve this issue?"In a time where everyone is struggling financially, this business cannot play with people's lives like this! It is ultimately a benefit, but when you are promised a certain amount of money in writing. The company should be held responsible to that amount and be aware that people make financial plans based on that. I will reach out to my employer to see what options we have to cease business with this shady business.
