Spongefinger Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 (Big sigh).It was my 50th birthday this year in May so my plan was to do my das and treat myself to a bike for my birthday. Booked for March then lockdown Eventually got rebooked for August when they re opened on second day lost my wallet with my licence in so had to stop training and give up my test dates Anyway managed to rebook for (yes you guessed it) last week in November so now most probably cancelled again Ever feel like something was not meant to be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They suffered a huge back log of tests last time that caused them a massive headache so I wouldn’t be surprised if they carry on. Then again mobikes tests get lumped in with all others like cars so they might. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like we're sitting in the same car or anything They are now looking to reschedule as per their current schedule.

mthinesy Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Well I still haven't been contacted by my school to rearrange mine. I was booked for this morning, missing out by a day. I have a feeling that I've been missed off and will lose out. Hoping I can do it in December. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
