You said your students never got there money back. Do you mean some "teachers" never got paid?

Aw come on, shmooj! Laughing Aw . . . I'm SO disappointed!

After reading your intitial post Arrow re: students not getting their money back, I KNEW (or think I know/knew Cool ) what you meant.

Thus--after rickman asked for clarification--I have been waiting, waiting. . . so curious to see how you would respond Smile

I have not heard about people not getting paid. I have heard that they had a LONG wait for any reference or work service letters.

Also, if you quit Nova and are leaving the country, DONT TELL THEM YOU ARE. Twisted Evil They take 25% tax off your final cheque.They say that everyone does it, and I dont think that is the case at all. It is a Nova thing (maybe - anyone with different information??) When I left, I told them I was staying in Japan so as to avoid the 25% deduction. Get an international bank card and just pull out your money from wherever you are.

They can't [b][u]not[/u][/b] pay you. They have been known to take extra money off tho.

Check you bank account on pay day. If there is no money, call your school and then head office.

I understand. I think I'll be able to overcome the disappoinment. Very Happy

Your response to Wolf's "shot across the bow," was perceptive. Sadly, not everyone in that forum responds in a similar way (despite, in one case, "multiple warning shots"!)

Good on Wolf, too, for doing that. Smile
