Oct 12,2023I had a great experience with DTC driving school. They helped me book a test very quickly and guided me on exactly what was important to pay attention to during the test. Passed my test easily with the instructors guidance. DTC makes it easy to book a test and pass. Very helpful and experienced instructor who was also very friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Oct 11,2023I was really nervous for my practical and stressed due to not having a test-standard car but DTC managed to find someone for me. Manisha was great at easing my nerves and even though I only had one hour of practice (and had repeatedly stalled as I was unfamiliar with the biting point). Managed to pass 1st time, which I think I owe a lot to Manisha being a past examiner and giving me the confidence. The only thing I’d say about DTC though is that, even though they advertise as last minute, it’d be in your best interest to book at least a week in advance. I enquired for a quote on Monday, only getting a response on Wednesday and the instructions for payment came Friday late afternoon. Because it was the weekends they couldn’t contact any instructors and so had to up the price as it was getting too near my test (on the following Tuesday). They did come through on Monday though so bug sigh of relief.

Oct 11,2023**SCAM** The instructor turned up for a last minute driving test in a car not fit for the test. We had purchased 2 hours of driving before the test to get to grips with the controls, but straight from the off the instructor said you need to show that you are test ready in the first half an hour. No time to get used to the clutch, brake before refusing the use of the car for the test. Then he has the audacity to pipe up with 95% of students he refuses to let them take the test. This screams SCAM all over it, do yourself a favour and use a reputable company. The struggling with the clutch was to with the fact the car was not road worthy, using the gas before using the clutch as instructed by the instructor as the car konks out trying to get biting point. Yes the instructor did say 95% do not make the grade, which quite frasnkly doesn't surprise me when the car is not road worthy. I suggest you speak to him about L plates aswell, as my daughter doesn't recall see them on the car.

Oct 06,2023I can understand that this is emergency driving instructor arrangement company. However with certain lead time and with some conditions, refunds also should be processed in case of cancellations.

Oct 06,2023Its a pretty obvious scam, they keep getting details of my booking wrong and push me to pay the invoice fast. Please be wary.

Oct 04,2023Haroon Kayani ( EN19 ZTF) is not reliable He was only interested in the money which wasn’t the problem. He booked me for lessons and car hire at the rate of £310 then requested for upfront payment of £160. He showed up on the first lesson that lasted for 2hours at 6:20pm to access my driving then the next 2hrs lesson lasted for only an hour cos he showed up late at 8:30pm. We agreed to meet at 11am on test day but he refused to show up until I sent him £150 balance. I sent him the balance and he still showed up late at 12:30pm. In a nut shell it was hell of an experience with him because he only gave me a lot of frustration. Anyone looking for a new instructor should kindly avoid him cos he’s only got High blood pressure to offer you. He’s unreliable, run away from him.

Oct 04,2023Kayani instructor is unreliable, untruthful and always demanding for money without showing up at the appointed time for his lessons… I regret using this guy for test and lessons, he suggested 4 lessons before my test date and he comes up with excuses to postpone at last minute but always demanding for more upfront… Kayani should not be recommended to anyone if you don’t wanna suffer high blood pressure. I have given him a good review before but I regret doing that damn!!! Aside from this DTC is trustworthy and delivers but I pray no one gets Kayani as an instructor because he will keep asking for more upfront and never shows up as planned. I failed my test today for the first time we were suppose to have 2hrs lessons before my test bro came late!

Sep 29,2023I contacted DTC driving school just 2 days before my practical test, the driving tips especially the YouTube channel (Sir Shaq) helps me alot, my instructor on test day "Anisha Gadday" is an amazing and highly professional instructor with very kind heart, just 2 lessons but i must say very composed and highly professional, as a result i passed my test on very first attemp. Thanks DTC and "Anisha" wish you all guys with good health.

Sep 27,2023I would like to say thank you for the company and to Mr Kayani (instructor), for the help for today, I was able to change my date from January to today. I got the notification and try it. So I had just one day to find a car which I could use in the test and was really easy with the DTC, and now I have good news. I've passed.

Sep 13,2023It was a last minute call, but DTC timely arranged a friendly and resourceful instructor (Zohaib) for my test. Shak in particular was helpful in managing my booking. In the end, it was a pass! I highly recommend DTC!

Sep 12,2023DTC is a great company that I recommend to others who are looking for reliable driving instructors in short notice. My driver instructor Manisha Gadday was very helpful and strategic when teaching me how to prepare for the test. I passed and I thank her a lot.

Sep 09,2023The company has a godsend for me, helping arrange a driving instructor at short notice in two occasions. My driving instructor has to cancel 4 hours before my exam because of a family emergency and in less than 30 minutes, they have sorted me out with an instructor for the test, who has been quiet helpful, nice, and diligent in her tips and prep for the exam. Overall, would highly recommend

Oct 12,2023Within 2 days they helped me to find an instructor from Birmingham where I have never drove before and I managed to pass the driving exam in my first attempt. Bit expensive but it worked for me.
