"Total waste of time "

Total waste of time , only discovered they are unable to carry out driving lessons. I had to contact them no one bothered to tell me despite waiting months for a space.
Absolutely a disgrace don’t waste your time with excuses.

This is a reply to your comment – your attempt to justify a complete let down.

Firstly A negative review is what you write when someone like yourself tries to ignore their responsibilities and promises.
Secondly I was on the waiting list and you told me lessons will begin during the month of September. (This was made during June. If you wanted a deposit why didn’t you ask for one)?
I was not offered an option of a specific start date as you did not have one at the time.

You now say that automatic lessons are no longer available in the South Shore Area. This is only after I contacted you and despite automatic lessons still being advertised on your website.
Essentially what you are trying to say is completely untruthful.
Remember people will read this review, they will judge for themselves whether your driving school is the one for them – as there are plenty around (as you have stated they are free to choose).
I will end as I started; dealing with you has been A TOTAL WASTE OF TIME, shame on you.

"I had such a great experience with…"

I had such a great experience with Blackpool driving school, I passed first time with my brilliant instructor, Liz. She is a great instructor I learnt so much from her in such a short time!
I took a 30 hour course and felt super confident by the time my test came.
Thank you!

"Well what can I say"

Well what can I say! Amazing experience with BDS for sure! A massive, massive thankyou to Simon Anson- for teaching me what I lacked with driving, for the guidance where it was needed, for the encouragement, support, the confidence and hope you gave to me everyday and for dealing with the tears and anxiety along the way😂

"Huge thank you to Dave and donna "

I recently passed my test after struggling and losing all confidence with manual Dave helped me get confidence again in the automatic and was very patient with me the whole way through. I passed my test first time and couldn’t have done it without Dave. Donna was also a huge help with making sure I got a test quicker and ensuring I got another one soon when mine was cancelled. Huge thank you to bds and especially Dave and Donna!! Couldn’t recommend them enough.

"Huge Thankyou to Donna and Shane Mckenna (The best instructor) "

Recently I passed my driving test and finished my driving lessons with Shane and would like to say that he is absolutely professional, patient and ensures to fine tune areas of weakness in your driving. I would say Im lucky to of had him as my driving instructor and very great full for transforming me into a confident and safe driver. Not only that he made the experience of learning enjoyable. Thank you Shane and Donna at BDS.
