Paid the service fees to agency to study abroad, now I'm stuck


07-Nov-2023 (In Consumer Court Law)
I want to go abroad, I contacted one agency. My first and main issue was my budget. I told them ALL the expenses should be between 15-18lakhs for the whole course(Living+tuition fees, every single expense). They said okay, suggested Paris and Canada. Then I paid the service fees(so that they could proceed with the shortlisting of colleges). The fees is non-refundable. Now, I contacted them again, to confirm about the expenses of the colleges they suggested. Now they are saying "As discussed, it is within 15-18 lakhs PER ANNUM". The course I am looking forward to is for 2years. Double the amount I was expecting. Now I am stuck. I have no idea what to do. Also, the service fees is for 1year only. And I have no proof against them. I feel cheated, I am sure there was no miscommunication earlier. please help. Thanks!

hi,
try to collect all the proof in your favour and report it to police and try to do FIR against them and also file a complaint in consumer forum and demand your money back but before this you have to go through with the terms of agreement.

Thanks
