Driving Schools

Very unreliable....pathetic

Advantages: never got chance to find one
Disadvantages: they are not reliable

...ago. Received a letter from AA signed by the CEO of the company (Andrew Strong) saying the instructor will call me couple a days before to say hi. Forget about someone phoning and saying Hi the instructor didn’t turn up on the day itself and nobody from the AA even called me. I was on holiday and came back 2 days before my holiday ends so that I can concentrate on my first lessons, all my family and friends knew that I have booked with AA and was ...
...day and time I phoned AA on 08000720635 a gentleman called Adam picked up the phone after I told him the story he put me on hold and then later tells that instructor never got the message as there was some computer error and that he will not make it today, I said Adam I had called couple of time even yesterday and spoken to one of your colleague that I have not received any call from anyone and he (forgot his name) said not a problem I will text ...

Review of AA Driving School

Not the best but satisfactory

Advantages: Excellent quality Ford Focus
Disadvantages: Completely independent drivers who sometimes write off previous tips/references

...week since I passed through AA Driving school. To summarise total experiences, Age: 25+ Driving experience before starting with AA: Less than 100miles driving Total hours spent: 45 (together with test attempt hours) Total practical test attempts: 4 I had a very good instructor for the first 35 lessons and had a good time. I had to change the driving instructor due to relocation and the second instructor is total nutcase. He is very arrogant and never ...
...pessimistic. "You would never pass with this driving" is his way of conversation to start. This happened even on the test day which I passed. In my opinion, people should not fall for their "fully qualified driving instructors" selling point. Quality of the driving instructor doesn't come with qualification. Even a local driving instructor can be a great one without any 'qualification' tag. At the end of the day, all these instructors are independent ...

Review of AA Driving School

JNR review

Advantages: Great guy, makes you feel very comfortable in the car
Disadvantages: None!

My brother and all his friends had John as their driving instructor and they all passed first time. My brother passed with only 3 minors. Now it is my turn to have John as my instructor. In the car, John is very calm and fils you with confidence. I had never driven a car before my first lesson and right from the start I felt completely at ease behind the wheel. With John as my instructor, I know I am in good hands. I block booked 20 hours of lessons ...

Review of BSM

The good, The Bad...The BSM driving lessons...

Advantages: Good pass rate. Lovely cars.
Disadvantages: Time wasting. Disagree that we would drive across town to begin the lesson.

...5. I've heard that all BSM instructors use this method to teach. I can't fault them for being thorough, I just don't feel it's necessary to waste so much time and drag the lessons out. I suppose the important thing is that I passed my driving test first time, as did my brother who went with BSM. In fact, everyone I know who have with BSM have passed first time. So maybe i shouldn't be complaining. I would recommend them, but with that I would also ...
