Basically the same experience as everyone else. Paid almost $400 for three rides. Ten months after I paid I have still only been able to complete two rides. They are now trying to charge another $40 because they are saying I missed an appointment but no one ever scheduled the appointment with me. Very disappointing service. It has been a nightmare experience just scheduling and getting in contact with someone for the first two appointments. Take your business elsewhere. They are rude and now trying to scam me out of more money.

Awful experience. After payment, there was no communication from them. I had to call them multiple times, talking every time with someone different. Very messy and unprofessional. This does not seem to be proper business/company with a regular services. Quite strange overall and very disappointed. I asked for a cancellation and refund.

Critical:Communication, Professionalism I have already paid online for a driving course but I can't get anybody to answer the phone (no voicemail offered) for the last three days so we can schedule the classes. No response to my email either. Would really appreciate the courtesy of a response.
