Bristolandbathintensivecourses Recensioni 

Not well organised. Not very responsible. Not worth it. You could find an alternative service that is more reliable and cheaper—taking into account the extra time and effort you spend to get what you pay for.

I have recorded my experience below for reference. I rated it 2 stars instead of 1 because the lesson partially took place, and they responded to some of my inquiries.

I’d like to point out that most of the 5-star reviews come from reviewers with only a SINGLE review.

update on 03/04/2025:

Had to chase them for many days to reschedule the lesson, and I was finally given a slot for today (April 3rd, which is three months after the initial plan). However, the instructor did not show up. The name of the instructor is Al*n.

Asked for a partial refund (in fact, I had already asked for this several times feeling hopeless about actually having the lesson).

update on 06/03/2025:

After 2 months and 49 emails + n calls, they haven't rescheduled the lessons that were canceled by the school.
Interestingly, their reply below asks me to email them—something I have already been doing for weeks.

update on 14/02/2025:

Haven't been able to reschedule the cancelled lessons after 33 emails and 6 calls. There are several times they said the instructor is available next week but never book the lesson for me.

update on 04/02/2025:

I had booked a 10 hours semi-intensive course. They cancelled the last few hours' lesson on 0 notice. I have contacted them multiple times in the past 3 weeks to reschedule the lesson. Still waiting for that to happen.

update on 22/12/2024:

Finally, there was an instructor who called me for the first time 1 night before the planned start date (19:00 on 22 December) to confirm dates and time.

Before that point, I had to contact them around 15 times (online chats, emails, phone calls) to request an instructor.

The course hasn't started yet, but I am a bit skeptical about them now based on the initial experience with the customer service (they did reply to my emails etc so far). The issue is that they haven't been able to confirm an instructor after the booking, although I have approached them many times. Every time I received an answer like "we will arrange an instructor and let you know the details shortly", but now it is nothing but only a few days before the course starts.

Looking at the reviews, almost all the positive reviews are from "1 comment reviewer". I am a bit worried.

Let's see what happens. I will keep updating this comment.

Service is absolutely shocking and a joke if I could give the review a -1 I would do I booked the course back in late October ever since that day it was nothing but a headache to get anything booked from the theory to the driving lessons to actually start at all where communication is quite literally next to none and only get in contact when you have to send more then multiple emails and text messages to agents going over and over your complaint to all different numbers and because they see that fit and best to make a customer text for hours on end to all different agents asking the same thing and me having to repeat myself more then multiple times for the odd occasional phone call that I would have to ask for multiple times for the manager to then say I want to sort this for you and everything else to hearing nothing and a reminder this was going on since the end of October I booked this course so my frustration is still to this day through the roof I also made clear to the manger that it’s been going on for too long and nothing has been sorted regarding my course or even my theory. Also even after multiple phone calls with the manger my complaint still even today has not been taken properly and still I’ve sent multiple emails to the driving school to even get responses every now and again I would avoid this driving school at all costs as customers aren’t there priority or there communication to actually solve the issue that should of never ever of been there in the first place. Now I am truly glad to say i passed my driving practical this Thursday just
gone and that was down to me and my driving instructor also like to state the company are meant to book your driving test in for you with the price that you pay well they didn’t of course I had to do that myself so now that I have passed as a ’customer’ of there’s this won’t be left as my complaint has not been resolved still 6 months down the line.

The website states 7 day courses really for me it was 6 months.

I would like to say the only good outcome of booking through the driving school was my driving instructor what a bloke he is has nothing but patience and knowledge and really takes to help you learn to not only drive to also understand the basics of the car you will be learning in he’s a top class bloke and without him through all of this I wouldn’t of kept going and passed.

Booked a week off from work to do the course. Asked a few times when the instructor would be in touch and was reassured but with less than a week to go I was told the instructor cancelled. Another instructor was assigned to me but he said he could only do 2 days of the week intensive course completely defeating the point. Luckily I had time off 2 weeks after and they managed to find an instructor who was great and a really good teacher. However I don’t think he was one of Bristol intensive instructors. If I didn’t have the other week off then I don’t know when I would’ve been able to do the course and I would’ve wasted my time and money. Once I had finished my course I was expecting them to start trying to find a driving test as I payed for them to help find me one. They came back to me days later saying that they wouldn’t be able to help me get a test despite promising on their website they could. I asked for a refund and had to wait 5 days to get my money back. Poor communication from the company in general. Unsure how every other review is great maybe I just got unlucky but I would not recommend people use this company.

One star is too many! June 2023 booked an intensive 5 day driving course, May 2024 got offered a test on September 2024!! I have since booked a test for next week at my cost again, they are fraudulent and thieves.

I am awaiting a response to emails, and chat bot on there site doesn't work can't call, and persistently asking for my details when they already have them

They have taken best part of 1500 pounds, I'm a trainee mechanic that is alot of cash, and they have hindered my progression my career

They need to be closed down asap so that more young people are not losing money.

These guys scammed me, wish I'd checked Trustpilot first. Please avoid, they take your money then radio silence

This is a scam. I was supposed to be contacted by an instructor before my lesson date but it never happened. When I tried to contact them via phone they would act as if they didn't understand me or tell me the connection was too bad and hang up. Avoid at all costs
