we moved to qatar in August 2010. Before we came to qatar we got a place for our daughter at Compass international school for pre schooling. When we came to qatar we realised that they we over charging and there are better school for half of the fees. So before school started in september we informed them that our daughter will no longer be joining their school.

They refused to refund our deposit of 3000+ QR. Is this acceptable? Is there anyway we can get our deposit back...They can't argue because of us they lost a chance to offer another student a place because they also opened another branch recetly and they are charging 60000+ for even pre school students which is double compared to other British schools
