AVOID ALL COST
I went there after a call and message
I was filling up with my details and after an English test
he brought me to another floor and tried to make me pay 346 pounds
for a bartender course making me the promise of job as a bar tender
and after as a manager
TOTALLY FAKE
He knew it when I left

Hi,

They gave a great service, now I'm working thanks to them and must continue my english lesson, you can see who has study one month and this is how they got me my work because people knew what I was saying.

I'm honest, I was looking for a work and they offered me options, I took the best options and beat for it, for me.

The truth,

It took me little to be here writing WHEN I WAS ASKED TO SAY THE TRUTH. You can come and see how many of us are learning english, basically I keep working to study more and more. With the Brexit I want to become the best of me and give everything, I have a great education, but thanks to english levelling up I can work better and keep studying as a barista.

It was difficult to have an interview, and there is so much work London, but without English? Let's be realistic, you can't learn english in one week, I'm here right now studying, working and paying those their work for bringing a better performance in my career.

My English is very important. When I came to London I was lost, had many jobs and they help me basically to get everything, from my spirit to become goal orientated and get the level up with English. Of course is much worth it to pay English classes and it was so cheap to learn Bar Tender because my friend from Spain saved over 3.000 pounds to learn it and they didn't learn Englis, plus he had to pick up glasses when he started working.

It cost me a lot of money without speaking English, now that I had learn English thanks to them I can follow up their mentorship and continue my English classes to level up even more. I know is the way now, where they want excellence. Now it all has changed and I have much money, so is much worth it the work.

Hi, not only this company has false advertisement promising for jobs in exchange of English courses and other services because they know they cannot sell jobs for the agency act. They are now threathening us in the Italian communities on Facebook because we are making other italians aware. I will call fraud action and other bodies tomorrow but keep your eyes open.

was looking for job then I get a call for an interview,then she tell me is a company that look for jobs and ask me money,they are just legal thief,did not need someone looking for a job instead of me

Escape to London is now called Escape Network : same address in Oxford Street , they went from the basement to the top floor ....same "CEO" ...thi gentleman thinks he rules the world ...one question to him : why did they changed name ? To avoid paying taxes ??? They still advertise in Gumtree for jobs who do not exist.....don't get fooled by them .

We were also victims of this scam, we paid £150 and never got any job. After searching on the web I could find different articles and reviews regarding Escape to London, they are called Escape Network now, but it is the same owner : a guru type completely psycho. He is taking advantage of poor European migrants looking for job and accommodation in London. This guy should be prosecuted and this company closed. I wish the authorities do something.

Hello guys,

I also visited these clowns and lost out on my last bit of money I had. After trawling the internet I found so many people who have been screwed by them.

I would urge everyone to report this to ACTION FRAUD see the link here:

If many people do it they will take us seriously, If it's just me they won't entertain it. These people need to be locked up and can't get away with this anymore.

An agency of employment that was not interested in finding me work on anything. I still paid a few pounds to help me get a job, and improve it to my English. At the end I realized I do not need them for nothing because my English its good, and I got a job by myself. And even offered me an oyster pass that would be cheaper than normal pass, big deal they offered me.
They have people from Italy, Spain and Portugal, in order to be able to easily fool the people of these countries.
I found a nice way to take me a few pounds, and get to sorry for the rest of my days for having put the feet in that agency. Please do not do the same, it is a great scam of recruitment agency. Avoid the ETL - Escape to London Recruitment

As I was actively searching for summer part time jobs so I can make some extra cash before uni, I saw as add made my ESCAPE TO LONDON on studentbean. The add was misleading making me believe that they'd give me a job as a waitress at an event with an immediate start. I got a call for an interview at a the office which consisted of a tiny room. Instead of an actual interview I was being sold unnecessary services not useful to me at all!!. These people are time wasters, STAY AWAY from them and their useless offers, they are not going to give you a job, they just going to give you a contract to sign and TAKE YOUR MONEY!

Hope someone finds this useful.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS - big scamming ring.

Paid Escape to London £957 for a contract promising CV support, NIE, Spanish bank account, Spanish Language courses, 1 month Accommodation at Tampico apartments, pick up from airport, job at Rio with a start date.

I received nothing and when confronting the owner Raffaele Misceo refused to return any money.

Whilst I have been in Ibiza (since May 2016) I have met ten other people who signed up to this company and received nothing.

Companies house states they were struck off on May 24th 2016 but they are still trading and on Facebook you can see Raffale Misceo travelling to many countries enjoying life to the full!!

Please also be aware they come under different companies, to name a few......ETL, Escape to Ibiza, Escape to Espana, Escape to France and to top it off they also have property businesses.

ETL contacted me to offer me an interview, on arrival i found myself in a small very crowded office.
A representative talked about the jobs i'd like. He told me i'd have a job to start on Monday of next week, all sounded promising so far. Then I was told my CV wasn't very good and that i needed to have one of theres made instead (my one was made by the National Careers Service).
Then the bombshell.... he then asked me for £127.
I have no job, I have no benefits and because I live with my boyfriend i'm not entitled to anything.
AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS.

I applied to a job through Gumtree and I was immediately called for an interview with ETL Recruitment. When I came to the small and crowded office (where many jobseekers were there), I started to have a bad feeling about this company.

A representative and I talked about what jobs I want and he said that there are many jobs and they can't be filled quickly enough. He told me that he wanted to overhaul my 3 page CV and that I will start working in 5 days, I just needed to pay £189 for their "Job Plus Package".

I made an excuse and left.

How this company can treat jobseekers like this is absolutely despicable. Avoid like the plague. They prey on desperation to make a fast pound.
