has anyone heard of or trained with this guy? he operates out of coombses yard at ravenstone near to coalville. I have looked on the net, but can’t find any info. it seems he runs a car driving school and does the LGV side of things part time. I remember seeing his truck around from time to time years ago, but not for a long time. its hard to find any info good or bad on him. the thing that’s making me lean towards training with him is that I can do a couple of hours per week and spread the cost. same sort of setup they use for the car lessons.

one of my local bus companies have been advertising for drivers of “bendy” buses. I am only considering it as a last resort, if I can’t raise the money for training any other way, the prospect of having to put up with passengers for 2 years is eroding my will to live :frowning: lol!

my brother passed his CE and automatically got the DE entitlement. would that work the other way, if I upgrade to DE, would I get the CE entitlement?

as you may have guessed, work is scarce around here. I’ve got to sort something out soon, things are going from bad to worse. even at over 25, clean license cat C and D, and tons of good references, willing to do the crap jobs nobody else wants, there is no work. if there is a shortage of drivers nobody told the companies around here :frowning:

hope things are going better for all you guys :slight_smile:

I don’t know this guy. The method of training you describe is now thought of as old fashioned as most trainers/trainees prefer block courses. But, apart from the fact it takes a bit longer and consequently costs a bit more, I have no problem with it myself.

Suggest you give Rick at Data Academy, Leicester a call. He is highly thought of but I don’t know if he can do the training as you want. But we’ll never know if you dont ask!

The alternative is to go for a finance option.

All the best with it.

Pete :laughing: :laughing:

thanks Pete :slight_smile: I was hoping to go down the road of the finance. the only trouble is its catch 22, no job = no finance, no finance = not much chance of a job. not to mention while I’ve been out of work getting over surgery my finances went to pot and now I’m blacklisted. I guess I’m clutching at straws :frowning:

DE won’t upgrade your C to CE unfortunately it only works the other way around.
