I originally gave this place 5 stars but after today, I had to edit it to a 1. 0 isn't available, unfortunately. I paid for my son to start the driving classes IN FULL BACK IN MARCH. He was supposed to start in April. Then they closed because of the coronavirus. I received an email saying they would be closed, classes were cancelled, and didn't know when they would be starting back up. I assumed I would get an email stating when they were starting classes again, especially since I paid IN FULL and was waiting, but I guess I expected too much from the office staff. I'm an essential worker so I had to work during the pandemic. I called on Tuesday, 9/1 and talked to Nitsa who informed me that they had been open since May. She was very rude and not helpful at all. She told me the next class started on 9/29 and I had to go online to register him, like I had done back in March. So I go on to register him and noticed that there was a class starting THAT EVENING, so I called back and talked to Deb, who was EXTREMELY helpful and friendly. I told her what had happened and asked if there was ANY way for my son to be able to start the class that evening. She checked and said there was room and she switched the classes for me. I've been checking EVERY day since he got into the class because Nitsa told me he couldn't register for the class until he started the classroom portion. There's NOTHING available through November?! This is completely unacceptable, especially since he SHOULD HAVE BEEN DRIVING BY NOW!! I called today and asked for Deb since she was helpful last time I talked to her, but she had the attitude today. I asked her if there was anything they could do to get him into his in-car classes since I had paid IN FULL back in March, he's now done with the classroom portion, he SHOULD HAVE BEEN driving by now, and his temps are going to expire by the time they're able to get him into the in-car classes, but she said nothing is available. Nitsa told me when I called on 9/1, that she could have done something to help if he had already started his classroom or finished them. But now Deb couldn't?! If you can find another driving school out there to send your teen, I would definitely look into it! They're not concerned who paid when or should have been driving by now, but they got their money, in full, and 6 months later, my son is STILL waiting for his in-car?! RIDICULOUS!! If they can't find a way to take care of this for us, I'll find someone who can!! I was more than understanding during the pandemic but frustrated they didn't email to say they were starting back up. Only emailed they were closed and classes cancelled. Hiring more in-car instructors might be a good idea. Training the office staff on good customer service is another idea, because if I had talked to anyone on the phone the way I was talked to, or not being willing to help, I wouldn't have a job. They need to remember the reason they're there and that it's not just a paycheck. I don't like to give 1 star or leave negative comments, especially after giving 5 stars, but I am BEYOND frustrated at this point. Read Less
