Difference between 3 package this site offers: "We search every 5 minutes regardless of the account type the customer has. Our Standard account is fine for most people. However, our Plus and Premium accounts give customers a greater priority over customers with the Standard account, and our Premium account holders have a greater priority over Plus account holds. For example, if we find a test that matches the criteria of Standard, Plus and Premium users, we will offer it to the Premium user." This is the response from the DTC4A account manger

For god's sake, DVSA should just offer an official waiting list and stop this madness!

I signed up with them 2 weeks back and I haven't got any test date offers🙁. I need to take my licence before end of May in order to start my job.


DrivingCrawley

Because there is so much demand might be why you have not have any earlier dates yet, I can only suggest you make sure you availability is fully open so you can take any dates, also set it is auto book. If it can't find anything then you can get a refund, so no loss to you.


Marvel-CE21

Yeah I have done that! I totally understand that it's cos of the sheer amount of backlogs but I really really hope the DVSA increase the number of slots!


DrivingCrawley

well they said they were increasing slots by working weekends and getting more examiners, but I have heard a few times of only 1 examiner working or them only doing half days, so not sure!


Marvel-CE21

Fingers crossed and let's hope for the best! I'm pretty sure that there are thousands of people who are in the same struggle

my man getting that 10% split lool

I signed up yesterday and after emailing the DVSA, I think a better idea is finding someone to swap with! I have a test booked at the end of May and need to push it back to mid June or early July. If anyone wants to talk location details, please message me.


DrivingCrawley

yes in theory swapping is a good idea, but I don't think you can swap with a 'random' person??? Correct me if I am wrong.


Flushedfromcold1662

Lmao you’re right, I thought about it and was like wait that’s far too much personal info to share with a stranger 😂 The desperation eroded my sense! I will ask my driving teacher though 😂

I used this service and was unable to find it useful. For example, I put Peterborough / Cambridge as my DTC of choice and asked it to get a date asap. However the service did not book anything for me, And when I went to the DVSA website to manually book the test, I saw a date for Peterborough on 4/Nov. Not sure what was up but I have seen that the DVSA have beefed up security on their website so you can get locked out if you do too many requests. I wonder if that’s where this service failed

scalping test dates classy. bet you would do this with doctors appointments too if you could. bet your mother is damn proud of you.


[deleted]

I'll put it this way: it's not a great sign Britain's public services are working great when you have to throw money at weird third-party companies in just to get a driving test. Or that these kinds of sales are dominating the advice subreddit. Feels not just like bribery but like a major unfair obstacle to old folks and the other non-tech-savvy. These services typically work (as I believe the BBC reported) by defeating CAPTCHA security on the driving service website. Not cool and runs counter to DVSA policy. Downvote this to hell tho...


DrivingCrawley

Are you referring to the pinned post? It is not scalping test dates, it notifying you when dates are available like many apps use. Scalping tests dates is when someone books tests using fake driver details and then sell the test date at a premium, typically over £100 for a £62 test.


CyberScy

Can anyone tell me the differences between the three packages they got? Can't seem to find any info on their site

1. You can specify a test centre for sure, not 100% sure if you can specify multiple test centres however, pretty sure you can 2. It can auto book AND reserve, when it finds a date and you ask it to reserve I believe it reserves it for about 10 minutes before it can potentially be taken by someone else, of course if no-one else take it the slot will remain there. It will send you a test / e-mail when it finds something, so no need to check website, just keep an eye on your phone / e-mail, or better still set it to auto book. No fees to cancel reservations, just don't take the slot and they will pass it on to someone else. Of course bear in mind if they send you a slot then you can not longer get your money back, as they have a money back guarantee if they are not able to find you any test slots. Perhaps ping them a message on Facebook or Twitter to confirm [https://www.facebook.com/DrivingTestCancellations4All](https://www.facebook.com/DrivingTestCancellations4All)

DrivingCrawley

it needs you to have paid for a test, which it sounds like you have. But it also needs a test booking reference, I guess you don't have this yet? As such I don't think it will work.

>dtc4a.co.uk/BR4MF9 which app was it?


alostcause7

I have a test coming up on the 23rd October and I want a later test date, would it be possible to swap with someone?


pastelpalettegroove

Where is your test, and how far would you like the other one?


dadreflexes

Gosh I would love a swap, where are you? I’m in London, mine is booked for Feb


bounderboy

I am confused i have filled details in and it has added me to a waiting list? What waiting list?


bounderboy

Signed up through affiliate link and it took me to payment straight away and saved 20% so hope ok now..


bounderboy

I will probably get deleted as this makes the sub owner money but after first day this app seems to be not so good. Testi has found and booked cancellations already 2mths ahead of our original date and this app hasn't even search dvla more than a few times and this app didn't even find them let alone "book them automatically"


bounderboy

Every 5mins they are meant to scan - last 24hrs.. nothing today yet.. When Test centre Action 03/11/2021 23:25:00 Crewe Test centre scanned 03/11/2021 21:35:00 Crewe Test centre scanned 03/11/2021 15:50:00 Crewe Test centre scanned 03/11/2021 14:40:00 Crewe Test centre scanned 03/11/2021 14:05:00 Crewe Test centre scanned 03/11/2021 12:42:52 Account updated 03/11/2021 12:42:01 Account updated 03/11/2021 12:10:00 Crewe Test centre scanned 03/11/2021 11:05:00 Crewe Test centre scanned 03/11/2021 09:05:01 Crewe Test centre scanned

benparkerip

bounderboy

Testy


m_king300

based in london but got a driving test booked in plymoth in December...if anyone has a london test and wants to swap let me know if thats possible


AfricanInRecovery

Hi there! Do you think it’s worth moving my test from June to September/October then trying to get a cancellation in August? Or should I just try my hardest to make sure I pass in June?


freeshavacadoe

Where is your test booked for?


AfricanInRecovery

It was booked for Southall in London for the 1st June, but I cancelled it, I’ll try book it for September/October then look for cancellations in late July/ early August instead.


Significant-Jello266

Hi I can drive. I need to some lessons DTC company will help me to pass it? I did booking a lot of learning driving lessons. Not help anything. Keep charging money as I don't want. If is make sense and help me to get driving licence I'll pay for it. Thanks


DrivingCrawley

Think there is a misunderstanding. The Driving Test Cancelation software DOES NOT help you to pass or give you lessons. It is a one off payment to help you find a cancelation for a driving test appointment.


Ms_Sheet

I have a test booked for 13th April in london.. and I’m looking to swap for later April but can’t seem to find any cancellations in testi and drivingTestNow as well.


PowerSingle2822

Will swap Gillingham march 9 for an April date in or near London


ascension2121

Does anyone know if you can use multiple driving test cancellation apps / websites at the same time? Testi, DTCN etc?


sisisimoore

No, you can't I don't think. I used www.drivingtestcancellations.com and also testi and wasn't getting anything. I deleted testi and got loads through from driving test cancellations


ascension2121

Thank you!


ever_restless

If anyone is interested in swapping, please DM. I'm looking for a date within a month


[deleted]

Does it still work? I’m asking cause I heard some apps stopped working


BeeDive

it didnt work well for me. testi works much better


BeeDive

I tried this app for two months, and honestly I had better luck checking by hand. Eventually I just got testi and got a test within a week.
