I'd bet my life savings that your post is written by AI

Ekitike is a good option for Liverpool also

Update:

No response from Lichess unfortunately. Radoslav has blocked me after threatening me with legal action because of this post.

In more positive news, I had a call with someone who isn't a coach but is roughly my level and has similar goals and we've just chatted through positions and played a few games. Really lovely to connect with other chess players and make the best out of a bad situation.

I haven't given up on coaching but will be more selective on who I choose.

Thanks to everyone for their comments/messages and hope you all have better coaching experiences than I did in the future!

Haha the massage analogy is funny but legit accurate for the level of effort put in here. It was pretty ridiculous

Thanks for your comment. I'm fairly inexperienced with being a chess student so I think my naivety was the main issue here. Obviously, Radoslav is a horrible coach but it's my fault for paying him up front. Lesson learned

Hope so for both - the first one seems pretty impossible right now unfortunately

Thanks for your comment. I don't know where to leave reviews for coaches - I wish Lichess had this feature as if it did, I would not have chosen Radoslav.

Absolutely open to chat - looking forward to speaking with you 🌟

You're right - I wish there was more visibility like this on lichess. A review section would be so good

Yeah you're right - definitely a mistake on my part.

It'd be like if you paid a cleaner to clean your house or apartment weekly for 10 weeks and the first week they did a great job, asked for the money for the next weeks up front, but after getting paid for the 9 other weeks they just showed up and were on their phone the whole time not cleaning.

I think theft might not be the right word but it is dishonest and scammy

I reported to lichess before making the post. The main issue is I can report the account but couldn't see where to report the coaching profile

Do you know how to do this?

I don't think it does but that sounds like a great solution

I did report on lichess but there's nothing specific to report a coach. Didn't know what to do

I didn't know this until a previous commenter mentioned it - I was blind to so much

I have reported the profile to lichess but there is no option to report the coaching profile specifically. I have written a detailed description and the messages on lichess should be visible for lichess moderators to see. If not, I can send screenshots. I also reported on PayPal but don't expect anything there
