Well, I did go back to your company via phonecall and WhatsApp as did my son, and was categorically told that all monies were between driver and learner and I would have to go back to the driver.... See more

Honestly not worth it. No communication between driving instructor and company. My instructor cancelled all lessons and refused to book more because too busy. They didn't find me a test even thou... See more

I hadn’t had driving lessons for almost two years. Doing an intensive course meant that I could pick up my skills quicker and refine them by doing it regularly. The company offers to pick you up, but I had to travel by bus for my lessons because there were no close driving instructors in my area. However, OWD covered the cost of this which was excellent. OWD also found an instructor quickly. My instructor, Garry, was great as he explained things clearly and was good company. Overall, I had a great experience and, as a result, passed first time.

I wish I could give 0 stars.

Had a course booked with OWD and started my intensive course. My instructor was no up to par and done many things throughout our time that made me feel unsafe. Contacted OWD who suggested we stop our lessons and I get refunded my remaining hours while they look for a new course. They have failed to find me a new course and are refusing to return my deposit so I can book elsewhere. All because I didn’t want to be unsafe during my lessons.

Passed first time!

Despite some initial issues coordinating dates, the quality of my tutor (Syed) made up for the minor confusion at first many times over! Absolutely brilliant tutor, I booked for 25 hours, he kept in contact and we organised all the lessons over a week, it was about £600, (500 + a little extra for the administrative fees). He was very thorough, kept working on areas I needed to improve on, helped me get my confidence up, break bad habits instilled by a previous tutor and even helped me find a method of driving that suited me best for concentration that no other had- I passed first time with no faults whatsoever, I couldn't have hoped for a better experience!

Great instructor who's certainly pushing to try an get you through your test successfully rather than these that are only looking at getting the most money from you! I booked an intensive course with 15 hours and we got though an passed in a week.

Saqib

From previous driving lessons I was always nervous behind the wheel, Saqib’s way of teaching has helped make me 100 times more confident on the roads and I’m so grateful for his help

OWD MOHAMMED SAJIED

Would give -5 stars if possible, MOHAMMED SAJIED is the worst instructor in the world no body could be worse than him, I just drive him to his house 2 times a day at least, he’s late every day, failed to turn up one day to a 10 am lesson, he ignore all my calls and text and didn’t let me know until 3pm he’s not coming. I had to drive him to sort his divorce out, I had to drive his daughter to Manchester while she meets friends for lunch, constantly rearranged my hours, was supposed to be done in 5 days, still got 14.5 hours out of 32.5 hours and it’s been 16 days since my first lesson, told me I would be test ready on Friday now he’s told me i require a further 15-20 hours after my 32.5 hours, I’ve took time off work to get this one week intensive driving course for no reason. He spends about 80% of the time speaking his language on the phone which is very rude as he should be concentrating on my driving, he says my clutch control is not good yet he has me driving on the motorway surely can’t be safe/legal. I’ve asked for a refund but he doesn’t do refunds. He’s a scammer/con artist. PLEASE AVOID OWD AND MOHAMMED SAJIED!!!!

excellent driving course

I started this course with limited knowledge of the road and of driving itself but I quickly, with the help of my helpful and friendly instructor, came to grips with it until by the end of the week I was at a good level. A week on I took my test today and passed first time with just 4 minors.
Would really recommend!!!

One Week Driving Success!

One Week Driving were quick and efficient in finding an excellent and suitable driving instructor as well as finding me a theory and practical exam within as little as a fortnight. I could not have achieved my first time pass without the outstanding counsel and easy communication from the driving instructor provided.
Thank you Aurel! Thank you One Week Driving!

Saqib the sorcerer in Stevenage

After a previous terrible experience of learning to drive, I could not have met a better driving instructor in Saqib, he has instilled confidence and provided thorough understanding of how to be safe on the roads whilst ensuring knowing what to do in tricky situations, I highly recommend this course as well as this instructor as I have now regained confidence in my driving all thanks to Saqib
