Peter Whittaker 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I don't always make the right choices but I definitely did by using Ford & Lydon HGV training. From start to finish Amanda and Martin have been fantastic working around my painful calendar and catering to me and even working Sundays when it was the only day I could train! Martin is very competent and super patient and I felt very comfortable and relaxed the whole time. Amanda takes care of everything needed behind the scenes and l couldn't have wished for a better experience. I was actually apprehensive because I honestly thought nobody could cater to my schedule the way I needed but they've gone above and beyond and I'm over the moon. F&L are very competitive too and I honestly couldn't recommend them enough. If you're thinking about class1 or class2 l, stop sitting on the fence and just call Martin and it'll be the best decision you've made for a long time. I appreciate both of you guys. The dream team!!! From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much!

Alanazi Mushari 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Just want to thank this company for enabling me to succeed in my career at becoming an HGV 1 driver.. yeah I passed today I have not had the easiest 12 months, firstly paying a company over £6000 to be absolutely robbed from start to finish and them not being supportive at all and me failing 4 times with them. This company put their students first and know all areas of weaknesses which, need the extra work to be put in to then allows students to pass, not to take more money. The company by far is reasonably priced and the communication from start to finish is spot on. I am truly grateful and I would strongly recommend this company to all new beginners Thank you very much Martin and Amanda
