With regard to the issue of refunding and deducting the handling fee, there is a clear agreement after the signing of the education and training contract. It is reasonable to refund 10% of the handling fee, but the maximum amount cannot exceed 30%.
How to deal with the difficulty of refund of training institutions;
1. Negotiate a refund with this institution, and both parties will make concessions to reduce the consumption of time and money costs caused by litigation;
2. If you can't reach an agreement, you can bring a lawsuit to the court, explain the losses caused by the agency's breach of contract, request the court to judge the agency to refund the deposit or tuition fee, and you can ask it to compensate part of the liquidated damages;
3. Without documents, it is unreasonable for the institution to refund but deduct money. Even if there are no documents, the institution must have proof of payment and cannot deduct money just because the documents are lost.
To sum up, the training course fees should be fully refunded, and it is illegal to deduct 30%. After the training course is held for a period of time, due to special reasons, the remaining class hours cannot be attended, and the fees for the remaining class hours shall be refunded unconditionally and in full, and the overlord clause shall not be refunded.
