Had a test cancelled less than 2 weeks beforehand, and was given a new test well over a month away. This is apparently due to issues caused by COVID, despite lockdown ending almost 3 years ago. Call centre staff are unable to help, and there is no compensation whatsoever for the additional lesson time between the old and new test date.

Big shout out to Stevie for passing me on my mod 1motorcycle test at Musselburgh test centre couple months back top guy and top examiner definitely recommend going there with high five Ryder school

Booking test in Gillingham centre is a joke! And examinators will keep failing without explanation properly! I take my 3x and do exactly what the examiner asked but he failed me again! Booking for another test it takes hours to get a space and I’m still no luck after trying . DVSA makes people pay more together with time consuming and anxiety disorders!

Their website seems to be set up to be as hostile as possible. It took me a good hour to find a combination of browser and device that would let me log in.
They appear to be paranoid about being hacked, to the extent that it's almost unusable. I can and have logged into bank websites from dodgy parts of the world, but oh no, the DVSA won't let you access it from outside the UK. (My daughter, whose test it is, is currently away.)
And when I did get in there were no slots at my local centre, none. So I suspected their website was faulty, and phoned. Bad idea, 25 minute wait hanging on.
If it weren't a monopoly I'd never use them again.

Told unobservant after describing the 2 cars I was told by tester I did not see. Not sure how I am able to accurately describe two vehicles I apparently never saw but ok. I think your own observational skills need checking, not my own. Tester believes I should go above 45mph on poor road conditions whilst giving poor directions (less than 2 car spaces to take the next right) This is the opposite of what the highway code says to do in poor road conditions and on an unfamiliar road. I came from the test not knowing why I failed (still do not understand why) and now under the belief that to pass the SAFETY test I need to drive unsafely when in poor conditions. Poor tester, poor centre. After 19yrs of testing the tester seems to have become very lackadaisical when in the passenger seat. As a person with a FULL motorcycle license of nearly 3 decades (10yrs longer than the tester has had a licence), my observation is on point hence still being alive and not having any accidents.
Tester questioned my vision because I could not make out a very dirty number plate with a smudged letter, Only had my eyes tested by an optician In January who was shocked by how well my eye sight was, especially with long distances. Yes, you could read it Mr tester because you know the vehicle and who it belongs to and see it daily. If I knew the car also I wouldn't need to be able to make out the letters either, I don't need to look at my own reg number to tell you it, same as you didn't look at that number on the car to tell me it, you probably didn't even see how filthy it was. Ask me to view a clean, legal number plate and I won't have any issue as I proved later with a car further away than the one you originally asked for. This place will fail you because their testers don't watch what the driver is actually doing and then claim you are the unobservant one

Avoid avoid this shower Chingford DVSA TEST CENTRE, they deliberately fail you even though you do everything right they will make an excuse so they can get you to come back n pay more money take your test elsewhere they have the lowest pass ratio they failed me x3 i took my test elsewhere n passed i told instructors about them they said there was nothing wrong with your driving n they heard Chingford dvsa has a bad rep

I passed my test yesterday at Garrets green test centre. My examiner was Dave, he was very professional and made me feel at ease. I am so happy I passed my test. Thank you 😁

Ian was my examiner today in Kings heath test centre..he is a good gentleman. He didn't give me unnecessary pressure or didn't get edgy during the drive...I was lucky to have a fair examiner...hats off

My test was in Wolverhampton and Phill was so helpful and he didn’t make me feel anxious.
He made my life better, thank you Phill , god bless you.

Basingstoke- Driving Examineer with Nigel- thank you so much for your calm and hospitable attitute you are lovely x

Vernesa - my examiner was Andy wish I took his last name brilliant examiner, I was lucky to have got him he brought a calming energy to my test and was able to examine very ethically. Such a good person to pass with thank you Andy you’ve changed my life!

Driving Exam: Sirish, was my driving examiner, he was really good and made me feel at ease as I was quite nervous. He was so clear with his instructions and really amazing throughout the test.

Went for my driving test yesterday morning after 1 hour in lesson, showed up and found out if got a text only 30 minutes before my test that it had been rescheduled, after the nerves and anticipation just to be told that it absolutely broke me and now i have to wait over a month to take my test when i’ve been ready for months already.

I’ve just had a driving test at Hinckley. It wasn’t my 1st choice so not driven in Hinckley.
Good tip there is a road that turns to a no- entry, it’s obviously to check your reading signs. If your like me you see the sign are very confused & then see right turn you should take by which point too late a fail. Very annoyed with self

I passed my driving test in Luton 29/01/24 8am , my examiner Andy was amazing and made me relaxed. he noticed I started singing a little just to make me feel less tensed and then he had a nice conversation once a while which help. I will give him a 6 star. Thanks Andy

Going through small claims court and asking them to Look as a third-party at a video clip. That is one minute and 30 seconds long has taken almost 5 weeks to get a response back save your time. Pissed off is an understatement DVSA. Thanks for not looking .

I had my driving test today and passed first time with only 2 minor errors. Thou i was well prepared by my instructor, but I think the Examiner Sha of Bedford Exams Centre was superb. He gave me a welcoming, friendly enabling environment that sparkled confidence to drive drive like a boss. Sha is a fantastic Examiner. Keep it up

I had my driving test in Northampton. I was very fortunate to be examined by Michael, he was very professional, very polite and calm which helped me with my nerves. I passed first time. Thank you very much Michael. Wonderful experience.

I had my 3rd test with the same white person and he is very rude .. I guess his name Paul.. I can say that I made mistakes on my first 2 test but 3rd test I did everything good but he failed me and my serious fault is (appropriate speed). What a joke
He gave me 5minor fault for speed but didn’t mention for one time that why am I driving slow because I didn’t and he failed me without any reason.. I could have pass.

I had my test with Mick, he was very polite and made me feel at ease, he made the experience very pleasant by making friendly chat here and there, this helped to reduce my nerves and eliminate any pre built up pressure, this made the rest of my driving test a relief, thanks Mick S.
