I immediately canceled the course. till this day I still did not get my refund. I have emailed and called them numerous of times but with no luck. I tried to email these people from Damelin but non of them can help.

The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer's satisfaction.
I registered with damelin and before my studies commenced I canceled and received a case number of cancelation.
To my surprise I have a huge damelin bill a year later and I see it has affected my credit score.
I've called them countless times but still my name is not cleared.
Since last year August i requested my refund still no respond . Please cancel whatever i have with Damelin and i dont have any outstanding balance with you i paid R6000 in October 2018 and the rest i paid in Feb 2019 Now you busy sending sms that i owe you guys R6000. Ive emailed documents and complint @ facebook but still no response . [protected]
I paid for a course in 2018 but it never started so I requested for my refund and still no response. This is ridiculous so I feel that politicians and department of education need to intervene in what is happening at this institution. Its hard earned money that you are robbing from us.
Refund Pending from Damelin
For almost a year now we have been waiting for a refund. It has been excuse after excuse and lately your people are no longer responding to our emails and not answering our call. One would wonder if you ate our money. I wouldn't be surprised if you did. Give us our money back! I have no option to take this legal.
I was also a student at damelin in 2018 doing project management up to this day still waiting for my results... I requested a refund but still nothing
Hi there, did you get anything? I have applied for mine last year and still haven't received my refund.
I have asked for cancellation of my online studies 2 months ago on multiple occasions but no luck jumping from one person to the next all just trying to convince me to continue studying.
They keep sending emails for payment, ignoring my request. Today woke up to find that they have deducted money from my account, it is so difficult to find a way around this, since even my bank cannot block the debit order always telling me that I have to resolve it with damelin.
So now in need of legal help to resolve this. The only option I know at this point is to post my discontent and the conversations I had with them on all social media platforms. It may not help me but surely will help the next oblivious student trying to register
Seems like Damelin doesn't want to refund our money. They owe me over R19k since 2019! I call naomi every week she answers my calls except for Fridays, apparently she's never at work every Friday or she's just avoiding me. If I don't get my money by the end of November 2021 (this month) I'm taking legal action and anyone who wants to join me may contact me on [protected].
I would love to join you...i am sick and tired of all the promises they keep tellkng me knowing very well that they are taking us for fools. I applymied for my refund of R14000 in March 2019 and till today i have not received my refund. They sent me an email in May 2021 after numerous attempts of contacting them. Statjng that my schedule payment date is the 8th of October 2021. I patiently waited, came the 8 th the money was not in. I keep on contacting them every week via telephone and email just yo have paper trail as I am also considering taking legal actions againts Damelin. Gjis is really day light robbery, its very funny how they do things you know, when you did not make a payment they are to quick to call and send emails and sms about the fees. But now they gave our moneys and they are taking for ever to reimburse us why so...I believe nobody knows..
Damelin College is pathetic with customer care and the service they promised that they are ethical and law abiding is not true. Damelin is frauding us of our moneys cause what could be the reason that there's a lot of refunds outstanding and they are taking their time to solve...i want my money. If it means that by first week of December i dont get it. I will sue the institution for a lot of things...
If only we could come together as one and see if we take them to court won't they process the payments faster
Good day, I was wondering if you have had any joy yet. I too have been trying to get a refund since May, they keep giving me dates and nothing happens. Naomi was useless and now I've been dealing with a Cleavon. The COO Michael Thurley and a Wenzel Naidoo who ever he is have been copied in all my mails and neither have bothered to respond. I'm at my wits end
Damelin seem to be a college that doesn't pay parents back or refund, from 2019 they owe me 8500 and they never refunded, naomi gave 3 different dates but nothing was refunded I spoke with Naidoo he told me their not dealing with small money, I got so hurt when they were calling me for fee to be paid their forcing .I am looking forward to take legal procedures, it wasn't my son's fault that they had no that particular course.
I've had the same issue with Damelin, please contact me on [protected] so that we can take this matter further together.
Damelin owes me after 16Months.Contacted DHET and raised two complaints.Took them to small claims and they hired and attorney to say not in there jurisdiction.Its over 18K please get in contact for a more stern approach
I have been waiting for my refund as well and they are failing to give me my refund as there is an overpayment on Diploma Certificate. I only have academic record and I need my certificate
My son’s refund was approved in April 2021 for R26,000 and we have still not received the refund- every time I call it’s the same story from the refund officer - “the refund is with finance and we will let you know when we hear back from them”. It’s been 14 months…
Same for me , refund approved but 16 months later still with finance department.Raised a complaint them with DHET and they said they are no liable to pa.Bunch if thieves. Don't let it go
I have completed my exams with Damelin correspondence college last year 2021 June but They always send me a statement that is short with 4 subjects, I have been calling and emailing but no assistance, and I paid them in full.
Kindly assist i have been trying to get updated academic record from the institution since 2020. Also tried to lodge a complain ref :CAS-108477-J8L5N6 no positive feedback.
Two of my assignments where not marked since 2019 tried to re submit several times no feedback .
I am unable to continue with my studies due to this

I paid 36000 on June 2022 then August 2022 they said the is no lecture now I'm struggling to get my money back why is like that now why the take the money although they know the is no lecture for N 4 Engenering
We canceled my daughter's course after finding out how incompetent the institution is. From June 2022 until now I am still awaiting the refund. No one knows anything and is quick to take the money.
Did you end up getting assistance? It’s been almost 2 years since I’ve been trying to get Damelin to refund Fundi their full amount! Imagine having to take out a student loan of more than 30K & not getting even communication? My credit score is messed up because they wont communicate or refund Fundi their full amount of 33K as I’m currently unemployed I keep getting sent from pillar to post being told that the matter is priority however no refund is paid & I no longer want the percentage offered paid back I want them to pay Fundi their money back
Good day,
I was promised feedback last year after drafting my complaint here however, to date no feedback has been given. I was sent an email by Stefany Lottering however upon responding have not heard from the college.
