“As the company appeared to be winding down, after 2013, no new complaints were reported,” says the BBB press release. “Complaints over three years old automatically rolled off of the Business Review, according to BBB policy. As a result, over time, Trump University’s BBB rating went to an A in July 2014 and then to an A+ in January 2015.”

"...fluctuation between D- and A+ were due to a drop in complaints..."

This happens with EVERY company, so again, a big to-do about NOTHING!

BUSTED: The Better Business Bureau just called out Donald Trump for lying about Trump University

The fax Donald Trump handed to Brett Baier was not a current rating.

“Trump University does not currently have an A rating with BBB. The BBB Business Review for this company has continually been ‘No Rating’ since September 2015. Prior to that, it fluctuated between D- and A+.”

The entire BBB is a scam

You get a good rating when you send them a check

Don’t send them a check, you are either a low rated business or “no rated” business

Its a bunch of bull

BBB is a scam that reflects nothing about the true state of a business. It’s a hopelessly outdated method of determining how good a business is. The only thing I would fault Trump on is how come he’s still paying for this idiotic service.

Trump caps night of wins with victory in Hawaii caucuses

HONOLULU -— Donald Trump has won the Hawaii Republican presidential caucuses, claiming the last prize in a night of victories for the Republican front-runner.

Wind, rain and long lines didn’t keep the state’s passionate voters from the polls to decide how the Republican presidential candidates would split the state’s 19 delegate votes.

“Our votes here might be a small vote, but nevertheless, we’re here to do our duty,” said Al Carvalho, 49, who co-owns a contracting business with his wife. “I’m voting for Donald Trump because I’m tired of the career politicians, and I’m willing to give somebody else a chance.”

Trump took to Twitter to note his night-capper:

I’m still waiting to see how Trump Univ. was rated on Yelp and Angies List, where it really matters.

For all the displaced/unemployed people in the USA the Trump administration will be offering vouchers to Trump University.

FWIW, I worked for an “Educational” Company very much like Trump University but a different industry.

They SELL a dream and very few candidates have the ability to actually succeed. Understand that it is all about selling classes and more classes to dreamers that may or may not have the resources to pay. They will finance.

The education they get is actually very very good. And as a result, the vast majority of their Graduates will never say anything bad about them. Their failure, to a man, is not in what they learned or the money they spent but in their own personal inability to follow the rules.

Objectively, It’s a racket.

This added clarification still needs another clarification.

"While Trump University was “active in the marketplace” and had a lot of customers there were a significant number of complaints leading to a D- ranking, however after 2013 when enrollment dropped significantly, complaints fell and led to an adjusted A+ ranking"

Complete BS. It CLOSED in 2010 and the BBB would have zero information regarding "enrollment". Nearly all the complaints filed with BBB we're AFTER it closed. The rating fluctuated during those years as refunds were issued and complaints closed by the BBB.
