I enrolled on a similar thing (not this one) last year, but cou;dn't complete the course coz my Mum died suddenly. I got hammered for fees I couldn't afford - hidden in the small print which I hadn't spotted

Having just looked at the T&C's it looks like it's probable that you will have to pay the college and/or the scheme if you don't complete. I guess if you know that then it's up to you! Shame people have to hide things like this in the small print.
"There are currently no subscription charges levied on registered users who complete their programme*, have a registered "distance learning" address in England, and who meet the eligibility criteria for LSC funded courses delivered by colleges of Further Education, for the use of vision2learn.
*If you do not complete your programme but nevertheless wish to have registered and certified with NCFE those (“If you undertake your vision2learn programme in a mode which includes attendance at a college then the college may require you to pay a fee”) units that you may have completed, you may be required to pay the relevant NCFE registration and certification costs."0
