Stop private agencies to block the driving test dates to avoid expensive fees
Government should stop the private agencies from blocking driving test dates. They block test dates all over UK in many test centres and stop the dates from becoming available in the DVSA website. Since there are no dates, people go to these websites and pay triple the money just to get a date ASAP.
Private agencies who use instructor's reference to book tests, block multiple dates in all the centres all over UK. They have different websites, whatsapp groups, facebook pages. They charge from price range 165£ to 300£ per test. I got a test booked through DVSA in November. I wanted to move the test date earlier. Through a website online they got me booked for an earlier date at September for 165£. When I asked another website they asked me 175£ for a weekday test excluding DVSA fee
