We are an independent information website, so we cannot access, view, book, change or cancel your driving test, and we cannot see your booking. For anything involving your actual test, you must contact the official services below. We are always happy, though, to hear about errors on our guides or suggestions for topics to cover.

For your actual test, contact the DVSA or DVA

  • DVSA driving and theory tests (England, Scotland, Wales): 0300 200 1122, or gov.uk
  • Short notice refund requests: customerservices@dvsa.gov.uk, subject line Unavoidable short notice cancellation
  • Northern Ireland tests (DVA): 0300 200 7862, or nidirect.gov.uk

Full details are on our fees and contact guide.

About this website

If you have found a factual error in one of our guides, or you think a rule has changed and we have not caught up, please let us know so we can review and update the page. We take accuracy seriously, because getting a date or a fee wrong can cost a learner real money. Please do not send us your driving licence number, test reference, or any payment details. We have no way to act on them and you should only ever share those with the official service.

A note on what we cannot do

We cannot chase a refund for you, move your test, find you a slot, or speak to the DVSA on your behalf. Since 2026 only the learner can manage their own booking, so even the official rules require you to handle your test yourself. Our role is to make sure you know exactly how.
