I've been trying since February but it's like trying to leech money from a brick wall. If you're interested in helping me, I think that another true account of his poor conduct could do my case wonders, and it would put a black mark on the driving school too! Please contact me if you're interested, as I'd love to get this sorted out asap!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16611051445874044043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15515786.post-23322636956357879322015-07-05T01:54:20.676+00:002015-07-05T01:54:20.676+00:00shola helped me go from a very nervous driver to a...shola helped me go from a very nervous driver to a confident one who passed first time. i found him honest, professional and committed to my learning and passing. i'd recommend him any day - harrietHarriethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15884350475912191489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15515786.post-52185067353814213332012-08-31T16:32:57.577+00:002012-08-31T16:32:57.577+00:00If you pay for a driving lesson package in advance...If you pay for a driving lesson package in advance, you are always entitled to a refund if you do not like the services offered or are unable to continue learning for any reason, it is part of the DSA code of conduct.<br /><br />The main problem many learners face is they might not have a reciept (always ask for one) to prove the money paid. Once you can prove the upfront payment you are covered.<br /><br />If I were you, I would contact the local trading standards office who can give you specific advice if you did not complete the agreed hours (the instructor has the burden of proof, which is why all my learners sign for each leasson if they pay in advance).<br /><br />You should always compalin to the DSA if a driving instructor is acting un-processionally:<br /><br />Email adireg@dsa.gsi.gov.uk<br /><br />Phone: 0300 200 1122<br /><br />Write to:<br /><br />The Axis Building<br />112 Upper Parliament Street<br />Nottingham<br />NG1 6LP<br /><br />Unless the DSA is made aware of bad driving instructors or examiners, they will continue to misbehave so in your own interest and that of others who might use the same person, take the time to complain.Sholahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12384969511399760312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15515786.post-83716760760486892902012-08-31T05:28:58.152+00:002012-08-31T05:28:58.152+00:00I have personally had a terrible experience with a...I have personally had a terrible experience with a driver from One2One Driving School in Newcastle-Under-Lyme. The instructor was very quick to get angry yet slow to explain what needed to be done. He often gave sarcastic comments and answers to my questions, which when I payed over a grand for him to teach me, is utterly disrespectful. He even questioned my sexuality! He made me really upset all the time. I wanted to know if I could get a refund of any kind after the first 6 hour day, but he refused. I failed my test with him, went to a local person with good reviews from friends and passed on my first lesson with him and became a much better driver because of it. I'm not sure if I should put in an official complaint about my first driving instructor, do you think I could have a valid claim?
