What are your options if you pay a trainer in advance for a year and they ghost you? No contract except for whatsapp/insta communications. I wish I used my credit card to pay so I could dispute the transaction but it was a bank to bank transfer.

Take them to small claims court. In NYC, for instance, you can bring claims valued up to 10,000.

Remember that you can have an oral contract.

If you sue, in small claims court or in state court, if they don’t show up, you should be able to use a default judgment to enforce judgment.

The benefit of suing in state court is that then it’s on the permanent public record. This is valuable leverage.

You have quite a few angles to recover your money.

I’m so sorry this happened. I would do some legal research on whether this connection to the state falls within your state’s jurisdiction/venue rules. I think it does but can’t remember the specifics on this.

Also, you can report this to the online platform the trainer was going to use. He may be banned from using it, which you can use as leverage to get a refund.
