  • "In my personal opinion we got ripped off with a lot of money and still never got through our tests because of no consecutive lesson's"
  • "A little confusion on some lessons between instructors as example, ride over drains as the bike is destined for it and the other to say avoid them."
  • "sometime's not having a lesson for six weeks even though we both paid for fast track"
  • "In my experience seemed more bother about the money than getting you through your test"
  • "Turned out yesterday instead of giving him his free resit, they basically disguised it as a lesson and gave him his cert after that. Conned out of money."
