Great experience with Mel passed first time and very quickly!
PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE BOOKING A COURSE! I booked a 5-day course in August 2024 and after waiting for 15 months, was given a test date for MAY 2026 Yes, I know the DVSA has long waiting times (around 11 months), but this company completely misled me. They bragged about having a “dedicated team” who would find me an earlier test within 4 months when I initially booked — which was clearly just a line to take my money. How on earth do they expect anyone to do a 5-day course and then somehow keep it all fresh for 21 months before a test? It’s ridiculous. They clearly don’t care about their customers at all — just about getting paid. My course reference number is - SD-Y19P7, incase you claim this review is fake!
The course was good. However I did have to find my own test date due to the backlog. But, I will say that Nadim was the best instructor I’ve ever had! He taught me really well and I passed my test. He’s really calm, patient and overall a great instructor in my opinion.
Week commencing 17th April 2023 I attended the 5day course. I already had knowledge regarding the theory having *barely* passed 2 years prior but Mohammed managed to bring me up to a level where I passed with flying colours. Their methods of teaching the highway code and common sense is unmatched. I felt ready to pass my theory effectively within 2-3 days. And which I did with 47/50 and 64/75 respectively. Onto Rashid my practical instructor. Where do I begin? His friendly nature. He's calm and professional attitude kept me at ease. And allowed my skills to build at a very fast pace. He was firm but fair in regards to my proficiency on the road. I had barely driven a car before I met Rashid and now I feel like I've got months of experience in just 5 days! I have booked in for a test privately which ive managed to source for a quicker time (2 weeks) so I have no info on 5days abilities to fast track but all in all I can honestly say £1300 well spent and I thank all the 5day team for their can do attitude. Very very impressed 👍
If you know how to start a car and how it works, They will teach you the rest. Don’t expect to go there and to get handed a license cause your have to be hard working and dedicated. Basset ma driving instructor from 5Day Birmingham center was the best and most helpful guy ever. he knows how to proper teach you the ins and outs of driving and road safety, and would teach you everything you need to know for you to drive and to pass your test and get a driving license. He is the most helpful and upfront instructor I’ve met so far. Couldn’t say one bad thing about him, apart from that he is top man and am absolute legend. He’s so dedicated to his job and to making you ready for your test and to be road worthy. 10/10 would highly recommend.
Great service! Theory lessons are very informative and the centre manager, Nadim, is extremely helpful. He got a perfect score on the hazard perception test with his eyes closed! I had 0 hours driving experience before and I am now ready to book my test in just 5 days. My instructor, Habib, was very friendly, professional and a great teacher. I would recommend this service to all who want to undertake an intensive driving course.
Completed the 5DAY intensive course with Nadim this week, he was super supportive and extremely friendly. I felt comfortable on the road - both with his guidance and independently. I began the week completely new to driving and I am now almost ready to take my test. Mohammed was also super informative and managed to help me pass my theory test first time round. I would 100% recommend this course to anyone who is looking to start driving quickly.
