dazza_b Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 right, i have been looking to do mod 1, i have looked on the dsa website, an it says £15, does this inc bike hire?!, also i have seen a bike school saying mod 1 for £70 inc test fee's, bike hire and a 2 hour lesson, although when i called them, they said they don't do the test.it's making me so confused and i'm wasting time, i want to book my test asap, help? pleasee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susieque Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 As far as i know, the £15 is just the test fee. Anything else that the school charge would be for the bike hire/instructors time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazza_b Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 it was confusing, cause it said £70 for all that inc test fee, but when i called they said they didn't do the test, an i don't get what that means then, cause they advertise that it includes the test fee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_wacka Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 When I did my Mod 1, I didn't have my own bike so I had to do it through a training school. I used one of their bikes, did a two-hour manoeuvers session and the test itself for £135.From what you are saying it does sound confusing...are there any other training schools in the area which you could try?

dazza_b Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 there are a couple, but one wants me to pay £650 for a 3 day course, which isn't really what i want to pay and another one that wants £140 for the same things i get from the first school, so i thought i would go with the cheaper option, i also done my cbt with these, an i know they are a good company, just a confusing one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iiisecondcreep Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Sounds like for 70 you get a 2 hour lesson and use of the school bike during the test which I would expect that the school will have booked for you at a local test centre.15 is the cost of the test alone so the school are charging 55 for 2hr lesson plus use of bike in test.

dazza_b Posted April 19, 2011 Author Share Posted April 19, 2011 i thought they would have booked it, but i don't know, unless i book it for £15 and i only have to pay them £55, ill ride down later and ask, they don't make much sense over the phone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazza_b Posted April 19, 2011 Author Share Posted April 19, 2011 went to the centre earlier and they said they are willing to do my mod 1, but i have to do a lesson etc until they say i'm ready to to take it and pass, would £125 for 5 hours of lessons, bike hire and test fee's be too much?, or would i be ripped off?

Susieque Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Sounds quite reasonable to me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazza_b Posted April 19, 2011 Author Share Posted April 19, 2011 thank you hun , wasn't sure if it was a good price or not, but just worked it out roughly and it seems alright after a bit of thought, shall be booking that lesson etc tomorow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhJay Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Sounds bloody good to meMy local is £35 an hour for lessons. Bike hire is £5 on top of that (going to have to do that once, they've managed to schedule me and the Mrs in for lessons at the same time) and fees will be whatever they are, as it were.
