No online proctor ever showed up. So I lost my chance to take the test. Now I have lost my money and have no opportunity to test since it was a re-schedule, unless I want to pay hundreds of dollars. Because their online proctor never showed up! I showed up.

ACE is a very real structured organization that is designed to make money and insult one’s time and intelligence. The past failure rate is very poor 1 out of 3 or 65%. Seems like if you were in a business to help change lives or save lives you would have the goal more attainable than 65%. I believe that they deliberately arrange their test questions according to the ones you miss during your study sessions. Also a lot of the questions are never clearly discussed when you’re studying for the exam. The proctor system is a total waste. Very unprofessional and time consuming. I called to make a complaint and tell of my experience a week ago and a representative said they would get back with me but as usual no response.

I purchased a website build service from ACE FITNESS for $479, expecting to receive the agreed-upon deliverables. However, I have yet to receive anything in return for my payment. They want me to spend more money for a different service. There was no indication at the time of purchase that I would be ineligible for a refund or transfer of services after a 6 month period. I was informed by email after purchase, that if my content form was not submitted within six months of the purchase date, additional fees might apply. The additional fees are actually an entire new purchase of nearly $400/year. This critical information about the six-month expiration policy was not disclosed until after the purchase was made, which seems both deceptive and potentially fraudulent. As a longtime customer of Dr Sears Wellness Institute (now owned by ACE), I am extremely disappointed and concerned about the fairness of this transaction. It feels like a "use it or lose it" trap, where essential terms were hidden until after purchase. I urge others to be cautious and ensure they fully understand all terms and conditions before making a purchase with this company. Those terms and conditions probably don't exist. My experience has been frustrating and has raised serious concerns about their business practices.

This company is pretty bad, I've enrolled on the health coach program and after 1 month they told me on my dashboard that i must take personal trainer course to take my exam , so i told them i can't take the course because it's expensive for me as a student after that i told them i wanna make a refund they told me i can't because my refund is expire but i kept talking to them to take my money back and they were pretty slow on the process of the refund and there's someone on there team told me we will take 30% of your money i agreed on this but after they gave me my money back they took more than 30% like the lied on me!!!, for real i don't recommend this website

They are an awful company they do not listen at all. I bought there GFI course and then when done went to try to take the test first it wasn’t working and they told me take in person which I can’t do not possible when I asked for me money back because I couldn’t take it they said sorry not our problem. So I’m not able to get certified now. I highly suggest going somewhere else. Bad company and bad tech support.

when i got my certification abt 5 years ago, Ace offered great customer service. That is no longer true. It's very difficult contacting anyone for help and Im running out of options for CE. I've tried to download a couple of classes but they won't show up in my account. Im wasting more time just trying to keep my certification current. The offer online chats but lately no one is available to chat. Terrible customer service

I received my PT certification here. I bought a hardcopy of the book, the workbook & access to ACE Answers. The best part was the study group. The practice tests were also helpful. I did received some CE classes for free through my ACE membership, and I feel that I learned a lot about the industry. I do most of my CE classes through NASM & I do get ACE credit if I get the "special code" from NASM so that ACE can find it in the catalog. I thought the process of counting CE was straight forward. The one time I did have a question, I was able to get it answered by phone right away.

I recieved my certification from this company. It was a wealth of information i loved. HOWEVER, trying to do continuing ed was a difficult task. I got poor information regarding the process.
