Sadly, I think a piece of paper is the way MCC is in danger of going, thanks to the way it was introduced. Please do your research before you take the course - there are sure to be plenty of places sprouting up that can give you a nice cheap certificate with little meaningful value.
Multiflight sounds good to me, and there are others around who will offer good training rather than "just make sure you turn up so we can give you the certificate".

Don't get me wrong the only reason i think it's a waste of time it that i have aready done a LOFT (line orientated Flight Training) course and CRM course before the MCC was introduced and now have to do it all over again. As such i just need the 'bit of paper'.
Also it's a good way to get 'up to speed' and prepare me for any sim check ride i may be given at interview.
thanks again for any advice.

London Guildhall are in your area and they allegedly offer 'price matching' on anyone else's MCC rates. It's kind of bogus price matching though, because they only put you on a wait list and see if they can't fill it up with people who will pay full price, and then at the last minute they'll call you back and let you on board for cheap if the course still isn't full.
Their normal course price is £2250 which is £300 more than either Multiflite or 4 Forces. However the Guildhall course lasts for 10 days with a full week of ground school, compared to the other's 7 or 8 day sessions. Not sure if that means you learn anything extra or not, I'm enrolled to do it myself shortly so it might be interesting to compare notes afterwards.
4 Forces have been recently advertising MCCs at £1950, only problem is that they're miles out in the country beyond Heathrow. I'm not sure about commuting from Gatwick, however I can categorically guarantee that it's a nightmare to get out there from anywhere central in London.

Multiflight. Did the MCC there 2 weeks ago. Instructors are excellent, very practical. No need to go elsewhere to do an extra few days on the groundschool, you learn in the sim from your mistakes, and those of your flying buddy. A real eye opener.

Multiflight is in Leeds-Bradford and MCC is £1950.
I did my PPL/Night/IMC with them and I do recomend the school: good instructors and fairly new & very well maintained fleet.
