The SA Butler Academy (SABA) appears to be digging a bigger and bigger hole for itself, its latest faux pas being responding to an article written by the head of the Belgian School for Butlers and Hospitality Vincent Vermeulen.
The plight of former Singaporean SABA student Lin Yang, who was expelled from the Academy but cannot get her course fees and legal fees refunded, has made waves in South Africa after her story was told on Carte Blanche almost two months ago. The bottom line of the program was the dishonest claims made by SABA in its marketing of the Academy, its courses, and the misleading experience and qualifications of its Head Newton Cross, much of it found to be untruthful. I joined Yang in the program, having first written about the dishonest Marketing of SABA in 2013, the article still ranked on the first page of Google when searching ‘SA Butler Academy’.
