    Angry The Examiners are on strike

    I was all ready for my test today.Turned up at the test centre and discovered that only one out of the three of us that turned up got a test as the rest of the examiners were on strike. That one person wasnt me.

    Yea i think you do, wouldn't be sure you even get your fee back. When i booked my test there were some slots about 2 or 3 weeks away which is what i went for

    Well i don't see how you can not get your fee back or a free retest. Because you pay for a service - it wasn't delivered.

    Yep i get another test but Im not sure when it is yet, knowing my luck its probably on a date when im away. they do put you to the back of the queue and its a 9 week waiting time at my test centre hopefully they'll fit me in earlier.

    The thing that really anoyed me is that they waited untill i arived at the test centre before telling me that my test was canceled, so i had to pay for a 2 hour lesson with my instructor which i am currently trying to claim back off the dsa.
