I passed first try with my instructor
I am so pleased with the driving instructor I was assigned! After signing up to go through national intensive John rang the next day and we scheduled in my hours of the course so quickly. My skills developed fast once I started working with John and I felt very comfortable on each of my lessons. I’m relived to say I passed on the first try after having John as my instructor! The only thing I would bare in mind going through National intensive is that it was not as quick a process as i expected, but other than that I recommend John highly as a driving instructor!

Hi Olivia,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience, and a huge congratulations on passing your test on the first attempt, that’s an amazing achievement!
We’re delighted to hear how much you enjoyed learning with John and that you felt comfortable and supported throughout your lessons. He will be thrilled to know the positive impact he had on your confidence and progress.
We also appreciate your feedback regarding the overall timeframe. While we always aim to make the process as smooth and efficient as possible, your comments are really valuable in helping us continue to improve.
Thank you again for your recommendation, and well done on your fantastic result. Wishing you many safe and happy miles ahead.

Absolute waste of money
Absolute waste of money, it’s marketed as a ‘crash course’ with an increased pass rate when really you just pay a lot of money for 30 minutes of admin! I ended up doing the leg work anyway as they could only offer the usual test dates (4 month waiting list) when I proactively looked for cancellations.
I’ve now passed my test (by doing everything myself…. Didn’t even have 1 lesson through this company) and can’t get even a penny back from them!

Hi Alison,
Thank you for sharing your feedback, and congratulations on passing your driving test, that’s a great achievement.
We’re sorry to hear that you felt disappointed with the service. Our courses include instructor allocation, test‑date support, and ongoing admin throughout the process, but DVSA waiting times are unfortunately outside of our control. Test centres across the UK often have waiting lists of several months, and while we do search for cancellations daily, these cannot be guaranteed.
Regarding the deposit, this becomes non‑refundable once an instructor has been allocated, as outlined in our terms and conditions. Although you chose to arrange everything independently, we were still ready to provide the driving lessons included in your course.
We never want any pupil to feel they haven’t received value, and we’re sorry that your experience didn’t meet your expectations. If you would like us to review your case again or discuss anything further, please contact our support team, we’re always happy to help.
Regards,
NationalIntensive

DO NOT sign up with your mobile number.
DO NOT sign up with your mobile number.
After registering, I was bombarded with an absurd amount of spam texts — 18 messages starting from 1am and continuing until 6am, all from different numbers.
I tried opting out using the link in the messages, but it made no difference. The texts just kept coming, and because they’re sent from multiple numbers, blocking them individually is pointless.
This is incredibly frustrating and completely unacceptable. I would strongly advise others to avoid using their phone number with this service.
UPDATE TO YOUR REPLY:
You are correct, that was me who submitted the complaint. I use a different name on review platforms.
However, your response is insufficient. Despite receiving confirmation that my details had been removed and that I had been unsubscribed, I have continued to receive further text messages as recently as this afternoon.
This raises serious concerns about how my data is being handled and whether my request has actually been actioned across all systems.
Given this, I have now escalated the matter to the ICO.
I would appreciate a clear explanation as to why I am still receiving messages after being assured that I was removed, and confirmation that my number has been fully deleted from all databases, including any third-party systems.

Hi,
We’re sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating that must have been.
However, we would like to clarify that we have no ADIs operating under the name “Harmony,” so we are unable to identify your record based on the information provided in this review. If you would like us to investigate and respond more fully, please provide additional details so we can locate your account.
That said, we have been contacted today by an ADI regarding a similar issue, so we are presuming this may be you. We can confirm that your details have now been removed and you have been unsubscribed as requested.
If you have any further concerns, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us directly with your number so that we can check for you.

Called in Jan 2026 to book an intensive course. Was told I’d get a test date for around 6 months time, but will be brought forward and can expect a test around March.
We are now almost mid April and still no test. Have been given one in July on a date we can’t do.
Have called a couple of times to find out what’s going on. Each time no explanation given and just told, we should get one soon. Otherwise we have the July date. So no idea why we’ve paid for a service that promises a quicker test date?
Have been allocated an instructor who’s been great and keeps offering us tests for a couple of weeks time. How can he get them when national intensive keep saying none are available.
Been told that if we have to use the July date we’ll get a refund of £70. But we paid £500 on the basis of sooner test, I could have just booked one myself for 6 months time for £60?
Called again on Friday to complain, was told we’d get an email to follow up the compliant. Still nothing.
Shocking service and false promises made to get us to book. Avoid this company. Save your money and book yourself. Feel we’ve been completely mis sold and they don’t care

Antwort von National Intensive
Thank you for your review. We’re sorry to hear that you’re unhappy with your experience, but we do need to clarify a few important points.
Firstly, under our Terms & Conditions, we do not guarantee specific test dates or timeframes. Driving test availability is entirely dependent on the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) and varies significantly by area. While we always aim to secure the earliest possible test for our customers, this is not something any provider can promise or control.
At the time of booking, estimated timeframes are given based on typical availability, but these are not guarantees. Delays such as the ones you’ve described are unfortunately common due to ongoing test backlogs.
Regarding instructors, it’s great to hear your allocated ADI has been helpful. In some cases, instructors may independently come across short-notice test slots. While this is not part of the service we guarantee, we’re always happy to support this and reimburse where appropriate if a test is secured this way.
We also note that you have been provided with a confirmed test date. Where that date is not suitable, we do try to offer alternatives or partial refunds in line with our policies, but again, availability is outside of our control.
Finally, we’re sorry to hear you feel communication has fallen short. That’s certainly not the experience we aim to provide, and we will review this internally.
If you would like us to investigate your case in full and respond more specifically, please contact us directly with your booking or course ID, as we are currently unable to locate your details from this review alone.
