Replying to: jipster (Jan 21, 2009 7:08 pm) I think his views on tipping are quite indicative of his personality. Fact is, every year millions of new and used cars get sold by dealers. The vast majority without any hysteria or anger or hurt feelings. There is a small minority of bad salespeople out there, there always will be. You come to place like this,and you hear from a few people and you assume that every car dealer and salesperson is crooked and useless and you simply don't take into account all the transactions that go smoothly. that never get talked about. |

Replying to: grnerd (Jan 12, 2009 12:59 pm) Whoa friends can't I do that myself without paying 294.00 have not heard from them in over a month it always that it's up to me to do it. Iwrote a complaint letter asking for my money back to the CEO of TK Worldwide. I would stayu away from these guys you don't charge for something you can' deliver. I went through AIG auto sale training in Arizona and they interviewed and got us placements at dealerships BEFORE the training. We all had jobs. The training was way more comprehensive that TK, lasted a full week and was FREE!! |

Replying to: joel0622 (Jan 17, 2009 3:05 pm) I went to this training and paid the 294.00. They gave us all an interview at Toyota. The class started with about 43 people and the last day it was down to 22. From what I heard they hired 4 or 5. The rest of were supposed to work with TK and get interviews at other dealerships. I got one at Berger Chevorlet and was told I would be called back. After a week of twice a day phone calls I gave up since they were never returned. At TK the last email I got was they left messages at some dealers(that I contacted myself) and only got voicemail so it would be in my best interests to persue these dealers on my own.

Replying to: marcusd21 (May 17, 2009 5:37 am) I recently filed a complaint against TK Worldwide on ripoffreport.com I think I should file a report against Toyota of Grand Rapids as they were involved with this scam. A week after going through the training course, I did get contacted by TK, and they sent me to three dealerships in the area, but only one of them was actually hiring. None of the dealers I went to had even heard of TK Worldwide, and two of them were asking me what source told me they had an opening. It looks like they sent me to apply for work at dealerships that weren't even hiring. If you checked job postings on Monster back in March/April, the exact same ad was posted again by Toyota of Grand Rapids. That right there is proof that this is a scam when Toyota wound up hosting another training session just months after I completed it. I looks like I lost $294 that I can't get back. At least we can warn others not to fall for this scam.
