Collier's Driving School: Reviews

Negative experience: The office staff are very efficient and professional so five stars to them. Had two driving lessons over two days. Really negative experience. The instructor in question was very negative for the 1hr, "fail" "you'll definitely fail" and so forth was all I learnt. He made me feel very stressed. He made a comment about female learners during each lesson which was inappropriate. Asked me "did you learn anything at all" during my EDT. Grabbed the steering wheel off me at least three times this morning. I decided to end my lesson 15 minutes early as I felt very uncomfortable and unduly stressed. He asked me to get into the passenger seat which I refused to do,and said "you're no where near test ready and will fail".

Negative experience: Do not go with this driving school. The instructor Ian I had was extremely impatient and was almost shouting in the car over very common and minor mistakes. His attitude was poor and it almost put me off driving.

Charlie McGowan 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great experience with Tom and the crew at Collier's driving school. Had 4 lessons coming up to my recent test with Tom - passed today with 3 faults. He was extremely knowledgable, patient and great at explaining where I was going wrong and what I needed to change. I've had a number of instructors over the last while, and Tom was by far the best, with a big focus on passing the test. Would recommend to anyone with the test coming up.

Ellen Duffy 3 years ago

Negative experience: Made it very awkward to get refund as there is no longer a driver in my area; the first woman I spoke to said that I could get a refund over the phone and the second said I had to come into the school to get a refund so the vouchers can be handed in/posted in. Of the three vouchers two were bought on the phone and sent via email and only one by post. Unnecessary complications for what should be a simple process. Very unhelpful and just prolonging the refund period.

Negative experience: 0/10 if possible. Cancelled lessons due to Covid and when asked for a refund was charged €120 for 2 lessons I done with this company. Was told I would receive a cheque which was never received - rang back and was told I needed to collect the cheque (very rude staff) which in turn was €40 less then I was told on the phone. Stay clear of this driving school if you don’t want to be robbed!!!

Fantastic experience: I would like to say a great thanks to Lés & Tom for their professionalism. I am an instructor myself & I have to admit it was a pleasure to deal with either. What you see is what you get, there is no unnecessary pet talk, no waist of time pure driving. Okay their vehicle truck & coach are not brand new but they are in the shape as you will find in the haulage or coach companies. Which will give a great experience for your next career  & also a great value for your driving lessons. They will also help you out when you are looking for a new job if you need it. Overall I could not fault them, passed 1st time with the truck & coach. Thank you again for all your help & support. Best regards Francis Docaigne

Fantastic experience: An absolutely excellent experience doing bus and CPC training with Collier's. Tom is a gent and wont steer you wrong. Recommended the correct amount of lessons i needed and instils great confidence in you as a trainee. I'm very grateful for their help passing my test with a clean result sheet. Also very competitive rates compared to others in the local area.

Fantastic experience: Passed my driving test 1st time in Finglas after 3 months of driving and 6 lessons with Mick. Booked their car as my own had a dash light, it's much more difficult to cut out in their diesel Ford Fiesta giving you more of a chance to get the rest of the instructions right. 100% recommend if you want to pass in Finglas, forever greatful to this group that got me over the line!
