Cancelled admission before commencement but refund time is 30 days

Address:Nishuvi, Ground Floor, 75, Dr Annie Besant Rd, Worli, Mumbai, Maharashtra 400018
Website:www.upgrad.com

I canceled MS in data science course with UpGrad but the website says the refund will take 30 days only if I am eligible. This wasn't conveyed to me at the time of paying the deposit for blocking a seat. They force you to pay a deposit of 25, 000. I have paid 25, 000 and I want my hard earned money back as early as possible because I don't believe them. I have submitted the refund request before course commencement....

Refund Money Not Given

Address:Gurgaon
Website:www.upgrad.com

Initially when I did look into the website, your sales team first of all bombarded me with calls and everything.

When I did mention that I have a financial issue, he was like oh we'll give 5k back to you for sure, don't worry and all.

It's been months literally and I have been asking countless times. Now I get no response...
