Passed first time due to this company - 100% Recommended

A fantastic company to learn and pass with.

This company was recommended to me by 2 friends which had passed in August 23.

The trainer Prem, is very knowledgeable, calm and friendly, he guided me through my manoeuvres, reverse training and any question I had.

The CPC side of things you have to teach and learn your self via the portal and online learning (use YouTube and books if needed)

The company was very encouraging and helpful, they was able to book me in within 24hrs of calling and my driving started the next day ( I had already passed my, theory, hazard perception and CPC case studies on my own back )

But all of the training from start to finish can be completed with Flair.

I would definitely recommend this company to anyone wanting there HGV training.

My best advice to anyone would be, always listen and go into this with a blank canvas, listen and follow the instructions and you’ll pass first time.

After roughly 14/16hrs of driving I passed first time today.

Many thanks to Prem and Flair for all their help and support.

I wish them all the best for the future.

Sonny.

Amazing from start to finish!

I can't speak highly enough of Flair Training. From the very start of the process I was given perfect helpful information from both Jaki and John, who made the whole process not only flow flawlessly throughout but also with such ease from my side, leaving no stone unturned.

My Class 2 training was with Prem who I also can't speak highly enough. Extremely knowledgeable and helpful whilst also being an absolute gentleman. It was a pleasure to learn from someone so experienced.

Thanks to the whole team at Flair Training! I really do mean it when I say that you made the process a joy to train with you.

I look forward seeing you in the future when I decide to go for my Class 1 Licence...

From the moment I spoke to Jaki and got on board with Flair Training it has been nothing short of excellent, John in the office was also fantastic. I had Andy as my instructor and my god is he good, couldn’t have done it without his expert advice and encouragement. Flair Training are an excellent company to do your HGV driving course with and will get my 1000% recommendation always. Thank you guys so much.

Fantastic team who will definitely pass you.

From the first phone call the staff where really pleasant and happy to help, I asked for a trial drive and it was no problem whatsoever.

After the drive Jackie was very helpful in sorting a course that best suited my needs, John was on hand to answer all my questions and it was an excellent experience.

When it came to having my lessons I had 2 instructors Andy and Prem both were well experienced and were very pleasant to be with, I finally had my test and passed with no minors which I think shows the quality of the instructors.

Overall a fantastic experience. Thanks guys

What An Experience!!!

Where do I start!
From the first phone call to Jaki in the office to the day in Ipswich when I passed my driving test, the process was professional from beginning to end.
I needed my Class 2 licence as fast as possible and Flair Training provided that service without hassle.
of course, it's a 2-way street as you need to put the hours into revising for the HGV theory hazard perception and CPC mod test but I had all these booked in one day and passed them all.
I was then taken out by one of Flair's instructors John Griffin, I couldn't have asked for a better man for the job, calm knowledgeable, and a joy to be in the vehicle with, if you're lucky enough to be paired up with him as long as you listen you will pass with ease.
On the day of my test, I was with the main man John Dawson, his wealth of experience with being an ex-test examiner put my nerves at ease and I managed to pass my test with ZERO minors!
In total, it took me 4 weeks from medical to passing my test which could not have been achieved without this great company.
Thank you so much FlairTraining!
Would recommend them to anyone trying to obtain a class 1 or class 2 licence.
