The reason I say this is a scam is not because of the product (though I should mention that it didn't work for me, and that it is really only a modified method of loci system, with some bells and whistles attached), but because the money-back guarantee is not a money-back guarantee. Despite the website’s claim that:
Your reasons will simply be rejected as invalid, and your refund withheld. This is certainly my experience.
Additionally, if you dispute this on the forums, your account will be banned, and the post immediately deleted. Again, this is my experience.
Moreover, one should bear in mind that the “testimonials” in the forum are compulsory for the students to receive the next installment of their course. Thus, you should take everything said with a pinch of salt.
Again, sorry for the "one hit wonder", but it may well end up saving people ~£150.

Thank you for sharing your truthful experience as you promised
Especially thank you for things like - School of Phenomenal Memory = Scam, and others positive claims
As I said in my answers to you we do have a money back guarantee, but we don't refund money for the reasons you have provided, we refund money only if course does not work. Read our terms and conditions. Here are your reasons:
1) Despite the progress I thought I had made with the first module, I keep finding myself returning to my old mnemonic techniques, esp. the major system.
2) My latest employment makes intellectual and time demands which compete with the course.
3) My latest employment does not readily require this mnemonic system.
This is not our fault that you have some issues with your employment and the reason number 1 can be easily fixed. You have never asked me how!
I don't see any reasons for a refund here. Your personal problems with your job has nothing to do with the course and our school.
We work according to our terms and conditions you have agreed with and I have nothing to add.
You are welcome to share your experience, but please do that truthfully as you stated in your email. We have nothing to hide.
Don't forget to add your testimonial:
Testimonial - School of Phenomenal Memory Community
P.S. By the way, you have joined the school in May and our course is significantly different now. We switched to Course 2.0 last week. Now you can get the same Phenomenal Memory but up to 30% faster. Also we have fixed many errors and methodological mistakes in Memorization System.
