Ok. I'm just gonna say I've been had.
So please list the online companies you actually used so that I can see how much I'm gonna have to kick out again.
Thanks! |

I used TEFL USA. I found a few things about how good it was over the summer and now when it's time to get the certificate, I can't even find one review on it...strange. Anyway it's run by a Brad Brennan. Yep, he's apparently the guy that made a killing teaching in Korea.  |

I used i-to-i who are pretty well established and I know people who have used them so shouldn't have a problem getting the certificate. Although apparently they made a killing off charging people a forture to "volunteer" in poverty striken locations. |

I did mine online with TEFL International. (http://www.teflcourse.net/tefl-courses-dates-fees/#online) It definitely arrived in the mail. |

OP you can contact them via email and ask for a adobe reader online copy. My company sent me both an online copy and hard copy. They probably can do the same for you. You should also make sure they are accredited by an official board or are registered with BBB. |

Thank you all for the suggestions.
Good News!! They emailed me a copy of the certificate today. I had been nervous because It's almost been a month.
I was going to use TEFL International since I was in Korea this past summer, but they cut off all contact with me and made me think it was a mistake. My friend even tried their Korean office and got nothing.
The tefl course world sure is on thin ice. Anyway I hope new people will be able to use this information.  |
