HGV Training warning- Flair training

Options
SCAM alert!

Antone wishing to train for thier HGV or LGV licence should know about this company - Flair HGV Training. It is run by a John Dawson, who recently started Flair training after bankrupting his former HGV training business autosearch essex ltd, sterling LGV and Qualitas, leaving thousands of students in debt.

The Mirror ran an investigation on him, twice now, once for the HGV schools and once for his former computer training school called amraf which had millions of pound from students and went bust.. I cant post links but put 'john dawson terminal greed' or 'amraf' and 'john dawson autosearch' into google and you'll find the articles, amoungst other things.


John Dawson has a track record of taking money for training then bankrupting the company..Anyone wanting to do HGV training should take care to avoid any company this man is involved in.

This message is to warn people that his latest venture is called Flair HGV Training.

  • Potential trainers will also be interested to know that this John Alan Dawson bloke was also a director of AMRAF Traning - an IT training company that went bust early 2000s, having taken millions for training courses that were never delivered, leaving many army retirees and other people in debt - google search AMRAF Training. John Alan Dawson immeditely set up another IT training company, which is also now defunct. In fact, John Alan Dawson has several dissolved/failed companies to his name - check out his directorship history.

    I lost about a thousand pounds, which was a lot of money to me then. Fortunately I now run a successful consultancy and I pity John Alan Dawson that he will never know the joy and satisfaction that comes from running a proper company.

    In my opinion steer well clear and save yourself a lot of stress.
