LEARNER DRIVER TRAINING CENTRES Reviews

if i could leave a 0 i could. terrible - happy to take money - and nothing to help!

Booked with an instructor in Edinburgh, they happily took close to £1000 and emphasised that the teaching was all student led. I notified them that I had 6 weeks until my practical test and was assured after my first 2 lessons that I would be test ready. To give myself a better chance I even took out more lessons and done around 4 hours each week. My instructor refused to come pick me up from my home as it was “outwith their area” so I had to travel by bus every time to the lesson. Nearing the test, after completing so much of the course work I was told they weren’t going to be allowing me to use their car and won’t be accompanying me for my test. The instructor cancelled my remaining lessons and I was left with no instructor and no car 3 days before my test, due to the instructor not feeling I was ready (so much for student led). Multiple times I said I felt very confident and was ready to sit the test. They cancelled on me last minute. Luckily I got a friend to insure me on her car and I used that for the test where I passed first time. I would not recommend this company and I would not recommend their instructors in Edinburgh.

Booked, payed and then a month later they cancelled because there were no driving instructors to do it.

Driving instructor from this company gave me verbal abuse and threatened me when I had an issue with his car illegally parked in a bus stop. He then followed my bus up to the terminus to threaten and abuse me, the bus drive, all because I'd said "a driving instructor should know better," when I saw his car parked and blocking the bus stop. Just seen months later he's still working for them and they clearly took no action against him.

Not for me sadly, ended up finding another instructor today after being let down 3 times in a row. I understand things happen but I always had to chase the instructor to find out what was happening. Only had one lesson, hard to recommend Lee Cook unfortunately which is a shame as I've wasted time. The first lesson was alright, nothing special so 1 star.

Dont bother. Paid £1000 to train to be a driving instructor. Recived all the books but never actually started the course. They didn't even call me to see if all was ok. It wasn't but they were just happy to take my money. Refused to refund me back the money and just said I could start the course now.....no good!!
