Unable to deregister

I registered for a 3year course paid registration in Dec 2021 Attended orientation via Teams which was a terrible experience there was no order very unprofessional. The course began I still had not received any info to login for distance learning while others mentioned they've started studying. Mid March this year I sent a request to cancel the course due to financial constraints, Lethokuhle Msweli rep**** to my email saying , Please note you can’t cancel because it has passed the cooling period of deregistration. while Thandi Katise contacted me to say I cancel I will forfeit the registration fee & the 1st installment is still due since I've been invoiced. 2days later I get a mail from Lethokuhle saying: Dear student I can advise you to downgrade to a short course instead because if you don’t pay your fees you will be handed over and pay through debt collectors. email 2: Unfortunately, if you don’t downgrade you will be liable for the fees.

After a few days Thandi contacts me I said okay lets see what short courses are available because I can't be stuck in a 3year contract they want to blacklist me for what for not affording and realizing their very unprofessional??? I discussed with her that I'll downgrade to a short course for R890 once off please send me confirmation on email the course details I've downgraded to etc Since 1st April I have been following up Thandi/Letho/fikile no one is responding It's like everyone works in different countries because you'll never get the same answer. I really regret registering at Richfield 1/2star rating from me

Nothing has changed I'm still waiting to be contacted or have this issue resolved
Generic responses must fall take action now. No ETA people must just wait till when for feed back... Richfield is a Circus don't even think of dealing with them.

Still not getting anywhere with this company , submitted the downgrade forms no feedback whatsoever even when I follow up via email the staff doesn't bother to respond.
Today I get a statement I've asked you to STOP billing me for a course I cancelled
