Please do not allow this Belford High School online to keep ripping people off! They just ripped me off and many others as well!
I to was SCAMMED by Belford High School diploma online by the tune of $249.00 I PAID FOR IT WITH A DEBIT CARD. The college I was gonna use this fake (diploma) at informed me that Belford High School in Humble, TX was not a real school and I had just been scammed. I called Belford High school and talk to a worm by the name (Frank) hmmmm..... Frank always was the one who would answer the phone when I had a question at Belford High School...go figure! They will not refund my money and no one will except this fake piece of paper called a diploma. ATTENTION PLEASE! DO NOT ALLOW (BELFORD HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA ONLINE) TO SCAM YOU! Just bite the bullet and enroll in a local GED class like I am going to do. What goes around comes around don't ever forget that...FRANK aka BELFORD HIGH SCHOOL online!!! Brenda
Here is the link to this school that is scamming people below!

They claim they are in Humble, TX but I believe that may be a lie as well!

Contact the legal authorities. It works. They will come into quick action when the complaints keep flowing to their offices. Contact the Office of Thrift Supervision in your state, Federal Trade Commission, local BBB, and the Attorney General's office. You should also file a police complaint about this company

I'm sorry you got ripped off but the key word in your post is FAKE, please do yourself a huge favor and go pass the G.E.D and quit trying to find an easy way around getting your diploma, would you want a surgeon operating on you who used a fake diploma to get into school or how about a teacher, teaching your kids with a fake diploma (this is happening and it makes me sick) It almost devalues the hard work people put into obtaining REAL diplomas not to mention the thousand of dollars in tuition and fees

Same with college or University online. There are some that are ligit, such as Univer. of Phoenix, but a lot don't even require study. They base it on "life experience" (ie, a four or five sentence paragraph). That's just a formality, they really only sell worthless degrees. Also, in California, you can study law online or via correspondence if the school is registered (though not accredited) with the Caifornia Bar, and after four years, sit for the Bar exam.

Lets go feel bad for someone who got scammed while trying to scam..
Get real.. You are buying a FAKE diploma and are up set that you were taken by a FAKE company.. and people on this site feel sorry for you...

I always go for the advice my gramma gave me--if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

My boss, several years ago, tried to get me to take and get a degree online for a Masters! I told him--if it were that easy-why would anyone ever go to college--just get a degree in the mail!!

I do know several counselors that did it, and they are not recognized by the licensing board--so be carefull!!..karen

Interesting that they don't seem to have a mailing address on the website, but 281 is an area code in the Houston area. If you're ripped off by them, file a complaint (you can do so online) with Greg Abbott, Texas Attorney General.

I just ran a whois on them, private registration. Your attorney or the Texas AG would be able to cut through that in a minute. For me to do it takes time I don't have just now.

Then I hope you have job stability; Belford is not regionally accredited.
