Marial Arts Place Closed Down, Won't Respond To Messages Regarding The Advance Payments Made.

Location: Texas

Hello, so me and my family have been trying to figure this out for a while, but basically my martial arts place closed down recently. This would be fine, but I was signed up for a two year program and was only about 4 months in when it closed.

The program payment was allowed to be pay up-front, which is what we did, but now they won't respond to any calls or emails about this issue. They even went ahead and blocked my mom's number, so thet definetly know about it. The money loss was about like $4000.

The place I went to was part of a bigger chain of places, so we contacted the owners of one of the nearby ones and they said that if we want the money back we have to talk to coorperate and get some sort of insurance bond to get the money back. The thing is coorperate isn't responding to the emails we've been sending them either, so now I don't know what to do.

I've asked if transferring to another location is okay, but they said that I would have to pay again to the new location if I wanted to. I want to get back and start doing martial arts again, but I genuinely don't have the money to pay back what they just randomly terminated my orginal contract of that place, and now I can't even get the money back because no one is responding to any form of communication I try.

If you have some advice on how to get my money back, I would love to hear it. Thank you for your time!
