after accepting offer from ISS website...
Re: after accepting offer from ISS website...
Have you read all my posts? This is not about the visa. It is their whole attitude towards you. ( you can feel it.) I haven't make up my mind, but a bit worried. I will see if they get back to ISS. Thank you all for the inputs and opinions in the forum.

Re: after accepting offer from ISS website...
Doing research and being "sure" about a school will absolutely give you an idea if a school will act in a professional way or not. That's why this board exists, so you can get (limited) opinions. There are a bunch of other resources out there too.
In answer to your question, will the school bad mouth you if you break contract at this point? Quite possibly. Could ISS refuse to work with you again? Sure. If you break, those are big risks you have to be willing to take.

Leadership can be distracted sometimes, its not all about you, and they generally dont hold your hand and stroke your ego. They offered you a contract, thats your welcome aboard.
The position may have been relisted, but it could have also been an opening for another vacancy.
Most ISs dont do the via process for you, if you had an IS that did you were very fortunate, IE isnt like some fortune 100 company with an OSH specialist and you do is give them your passport and then a week or so later its all done and ready to go. Typically the IS will arrange an invitation letter and securing a work permit so that you can secure a visa, but thats typically the extent of their involvement. In some instances you can enter on a tourist visa and have it converted and for a last minute appointee an IS may use that route, but its usually not possible.
There is no blacklist from the ISs position they have probably punished you enough, as ISS wont reactivate your profile, and the IS isnt likely to release you which cost you $200. Aside from that there is little they can do. They cant bad mouth you to anyone without knowing who to bad mouth you too. They cant call all 10K+ HOSs.
HR may not get their instructions from the HOS it depends on the IS some ISs have a HOS who to you looks like they are in charge but the IS may have a "director" who is above the HOS and business units like HR, accounting/finance, etc. may report to the director.
From my POV the position was re-posted and then after that you got the visa info, it seems above board to me, why send you the visa application info if they had replaced you.
Informing ISS you wanted to keep looking and had a bad feeling over what were essentially minor inconveniences was probably the end for you. From their perspective you have a contract, and the contract spells out specifically what the IS and you are obligated to do, so unless there is a provision of the contract that states the IS will make all visa arrangements then from their POV you broke contract. At the worst the IS is unresponsive to your inquiries but thats it, and most leadership do HR poorly, and your ISs actual HR may not be very organized. I doubt there is anything you can do exept go back to the IS and attempt to explain your feelings and ask to continue with the contract. Otherwise I disagree with @shopaholic, the HOS/recruiter probably thinks your a diva and high maintenance, if your going to need constant attention they may think youre not worth bringing on, and they can back out of the contract because you broke contract. You are probably better off, because if you did go back youd be looking for anything wrong to validate your feelings. Better to move on.
