My experience was great

My experience was great. Information was very informative. The read-aloud and videos of the information was well communicated. And was given it a good pace. I like the fact you could pause and go back to re-examine the information before taking the test. Great job guys thanks for all your help

Hi Julio, we're truly sorry to hear the voice biometric feature prevented you from accessing your course — that's incredibly frustrating and not the experience we want for you. Your concern has been escalated internally and someone will be reaching out to you to get this resolved as quickly as possible.

The course was informative

The course was informative. I was disappointed that I had to pay additional money to have the results of the course available in a short time. This is the day of the computer; those results should be immediate.

Thank you for your feedback, Zafar. We're sorry the course felt longer than expected. Our courses are designed to meet state-required minimum hours for insurance discount eligibility, which can make the experience feel lengthy. We appreciate your patience in completing it!

Thank you for your feedback, Santos. We're sorry for the confusion around state availability — we understand how frustrating it can be to discover that after purchase. We see that the course has been added to your account for no additional charge. We appreciate you letting us know, and we'll use this as feedback to improve how we communicate which states are eligible before checkout.

The program was easy and user friendly, however the low discount I received is not what I was expecting. The amount of money I spent to register for the program is the same I received in my auto insurance policy discount. Go figure!

Thank you for the honest feedback, Sonia. We're glad the program was easy and user-friendly! Regarding the discount, insurance companies vary in the reductions they offer — we'd encourage you to follow up directly with your insurer to confirm the benefit has been fully applied. We appreciate your time!

Charge you extra to deliver an existing digital copy of your finished course, leave you no choice because otherwise you have to wait 5 days to get the DIGITAL certificate.

Disgusting practices, makes you think of who might be running a platform like this.

Thank you for your feedback, Kyle. We're sorry the certificate delivery experience fell short of your expectations. We do offer an expedited digital option as a convenience for those who need their certificate quickly, but we understand the frustration if that wasn't clearly communicated upfront. We appreciate you sharing this and will use it to improve.
