I am trying to understand how you part with 1000ZAR per month for a training program that gets emailed to you?

 

Can I email you a training program? My account number is 62128.... :whistling:

 

I am becoming a "coach" that's for sure.

common system these days. if it's personalised and professional then it makes a lot of sense. 

 

but it looks like you can't email him to get your p tested.

this is an internal issue between you and him...what exactly are you trying to accomplish hereother than to present a one sided story

 

anyway...its the epic..how much technical training do you need?

If there are three sides to every story - Mine / His and the truth?

 

Here's MINE: 

2 years ago, I sent my newbie wife to Swen Lauer for some skills. (Found him on the W2W site) - I tagged along for fun and Swen did a great job with my wife... She is now a demon on the MTB - Thanks for that.

 

Fast forward to this year, as I got an Epic entry, I decided to call up coach Swen to get a training program. He explained he had all these top athletes and agreed to give me a program based on my very erratic schedule. (I'm away for weeks at a time and can't train, but then home for weeks where I can train without restriction - I sent him my schedule)

 

His fee was around R1000 per month plus a R1000 deposit. I agreed to pay him for 6 months in advance and I paid in Euros - I gave him €600. My first mistake....

 

About a week later a got a two week block of a training program. After that two week period, I was away for a week so was not alarmed when I did not receive anything else. Then into week four, nothing... and week five nothing.

I sent a couple of reminder emails... nothing.

 

So on week six, I made other arrangements. That was a month ago and to date, still no reply to my emails with regards to refunding my money.

I tried calling but no luck either....

 

So before I rant about him running off with my money and not delivering on the agreement, I would like him to either explain HIS side or refund my money. 

 

So over to you Swen Lauer....

 

UPDATE:

Swen has made contact and asked me to remove this post. 

 

I did not want to to come to this, but I will remove the post when he agrees to the refund. I don't even want the full €600. He can keep the first month as he did give me a 2 week program and I was away for the third week.

 

I think I'm being more than reasonable here, but Swen I need that a commitment to the refund first.

 

Standing by....
