IELTS at Holland 虎穴视频guarantees that all our staff meet the global IELTS training standards and adhere to all necessary marking standards. If you disagree with the mark you receive, we have a formal process for the appeal of results. It is called an Enquiry on Results.

This inquiry must be made within 5 weeks of your test date and will take 2-21 days to be returned. The time depends on several factors including the number of sections requested to be remarked. If the test results improve, a partial refund less an administrative fee will be issued, however you will be required to return your previously issued Test Report Form (TRF) prior to a new one being issued.
