Saves Time and money using Dronerenewals

This is now the second year I have used Dronerenewals and will certainly use again and most certainly would recommend . In my opinion ,the CAA find many ways to get extra money from you. Prior to using John, I was doing it myself and had a number of attempts to get it as per CAA requirement. On one such rejection I was told it was the wording on something within my Ops mauual I had written which was incorrect, I telephoned , yes and waited ages to speak to someone, I pointed out the piece of text they were rejecting was the same as last year. I was told that this should not have gone through the previous year and that each CAA staff member might slightly review the document differently. I then saw notification that if your submission fails and rejected you are subject to addition fees everytime. I found the CAA staff not helpful and just happy to quote publications to refer to rather that help say 'Word it this way'
John at Drone renewals is brilliant, explains everything fully , great to talk to on the phone and for his fee, he will get your Ops manual up to date without fear of additional costs. A fast and efficient service, taking the stress out of doing it right allowing you to fly off and hopefully make some money. John, don't give up what you are doing! I'll be back!

I found john and drone renewals online…

I found john and drone renewals online after having the dreaded time of the year to update things and making sure i am on the right path with all my drone paper work not to mention the fear of making mistakes and having the whole procedure prolonged and penalty for mistakes on applications. John asked road a few paper work and then that was it other than a couple questions my application was filled with CAA and everything taken care of so fast. We are all busy in our lives once you put your business, house kida and things like this sort of service helps so much. I will always be using john for this process and anything drone related. I cant express how important it is to make sure everything is right and done by the right person so you can do the stuff thats important and thats fly

Always prompt and responsive service

Always prompt and responsive service. Can't recommend them highly enough. Keep us doing what we do best and keeps us up to date with the ever changing drone landscape and provides us clarity on what we need to do especially when adding other/ new services.

Excellent service (again)

I can't praise John at Drone Renewals enough. He takes the pain out of the yearly PDRA-01 renewal process and for a very fair fee. Had he not reminded me to renew this year I would have forgotten and been left with an expensive toy in a case.

Two times in a row can't be an accident

It's my second year using dronerenewals.com and my experience is beyond 5 stars.
John answered all my questions and clarify everything every single year in a super friendly manner.
At the end of the day, I want to fly my drone safely and focus only on that so having someone in your corner to help you and save you time and money is the best deal you can get!

The CAA change wording every year…

The CAA change wording every year without fail and then kickback applications.
There is no consistency with the CAA so without John and Drone Renewals for me it’s a real struggle …….after 50years in business it’s the attitude of the individual that makes our industry safe and not what the CAA change in the ANO….Well done and thank you Drone Renewals for making one part of my life easier!

Brilliant service and exceptional value

Brilliant service and got me out of a tight spot having forgotten to renew my OA in good time and then finding I didn't have the time to sort it out myself!

The service is such good value for money that even without the issues I had this year I will be certain to avail myself of his services next year!
