MyDrivingInstructor.co.uk is a purely online driving course booking service working for local independent driving instructors.
To keep costs as low as possible for our instructors, and ultimately their pupils, we do not operate a telephone call centre or call back service.
However we are more than happy to deal with any questions not answered in FAQ or Terms and Conditions by email.

Yes.
The amount of the deposit varies depending on the course that is being booked.
When you book your course you will have up to 14 days to cancel and receive a refund.
After 14 days the deposit is non-refundable.
The balance of the course fee is payable directly to your instructor 14 days before the start of the course.
We recommend that you pass your driving theory test before booking your intensive driving course.
You can book your driving theory test here https://www.gov.uk/book-theory-test
It is not possible to book a practical test until you have passed the theory test and it is often several weeks or even months from booking until the first available practical driving test appointment. So it is not realistic to expect to be able to pass both theory and practical driving tests in a week or even two.
From 12 May 2026 it will no longer be legal for us to book theory or practical driving tests for you.
But if you book your course before passing the theory we will provide full free access to www.theorytestpro.co.uk to help with your preparation.
Whether or not you have passed your theory your course will start on the booked date but the last day can be held back until the test day.
