Poor Customer Service and Conduct
The reviews highlight a concerning pattern of poor customer service and unacceptable behavior from instructors Mick and Mick King. Several clients have reported unacceptable and abusive behavior, including shouting, name-calling, and threatening physical harm. These incidents have resulted in clients feeling undervalued, frightened, and demotivated, ultimately leading to negative experiences and in some cases, the termination of lessons.
Ineffective Refunds and Services
Some clients have also experienced issues with refunds and lesson continuity. One reviewer alleged that Mick refused to provide a refund for unused lessons, citing an arbitrary rule limiting refunds to lessons taken within a specific timeframe. This lack of transparency and customer-centricity has led to frustration and mistrust among clients.
Mixed Experiences
In contrast, a few positive reviews stand out. One client, Lorraine Duff, praised the professionalism and prompt response from the driving school, as well as the instructor's ability to help her son become a confident young driver. Another client, Patrick Hopper, commended the quality of lessons and the instructor's helpfulness, noting that he passed his test first time.
