Fantastic experience: I had a great experience with Emirates Driving Institute- Ibn Batuta Mall branch. The team in general was very supportive. I was so pleased to deal with Mr. Wissam Atya who extended amazing, support and was very keen to provide full adequate information, he is indeed very proffisional and really assisted through out the reservation and the entire process. Mr. Wissam Atya was keen to extend support on how to use the portal and was very generous in sharing experience on when to take the test and how the process works also how to maximise the benifits from the trainig material. I really appreciate his services and highly recommend the branch.

Negative experience: Bad experience. Today I visited Emirates driving institute at IBN battutta mall. The help desk man was not interested in dealing with us. He is not ready to tell more about all the details. Just shown the chart and said like this. There were so many driving schools in Dubai I had visited but . They explained a lot of details with us. Emirates driving school may be good. But this type of employee will get you some bad names.

Fantastic experience: Thank you so much Leo & Asif for your support and help in scheduling the class at the last minute and that too with a great instructor - Mr. Khalid at the EID Al Quoz branch. All of your support helped me in getting the licence in one go. Also, after seeing the reviews I was hesitant to go ahead with this branch but frankly, I never faced an issue with no one picking up my call or not responding back, timely.

Negative experience: You can enroll in this institute only if you are confident to pass all internal assessment in one go without fail . If you failed then you have to wait for the classes to be scheduled for around 2-3 weeks minimum. Special feedback for Ibn branch - They never picked up the call so my suggestion to the institute is to please remove the contact number of this branch as it is of no use .

Rahul Adukia 3 years ago

Negative experience: Enrollment process was good and quick. Sadia akram was very helpful. But the IBN branch does not pick up calls. The main center is too crowded or misorganized. In my 1 hour of parking class I only got to try the 3 types of parking 2 times each. Rest of the time was gone in waiting for the parking space to be available. And when I said I am not confident about the parking instructor told me You will have 1hour of parking class you can learn then. If that was the case why did the instructor waste1hour of my driving time in parking. I would rather have practiced more on road driving in that 1 hour .

Negative experience: Worst Experience and one of the bad decision of my life. Guys never ever go with EDI even if they’re offering dont go with them. I have been trying to call this branch from last 10 days, for scheduling my class as 10 days ago they said will schedule your class and let you know now since 8 days no one picks up the call and not even call back. I have tried so many times but no one picks any time. Note: i am talking about parking class

Negative experience: The guy in the Dubai Marina branch is probably the most rudest man I have seen employed by the company. Does not reply to whatsapp requests at all or inform you of any hiccups. His job is just to take your money and leave. Really sad as I have started classes and there are some really good instructors

Ahmed Ali 3 years ago

Negative experience: Never recommend such unprofessional company arrogant staff. Paying upfront will makes you cast you aside and prioritize others. I have been waiting for 3 weeks for my lessons to start. Asked for any free instructor english or Arabic but their reply was, mandatory to wait for 5 weeks and you signed that in your contract. Big scam.Add to that super arrogant on the phone very unprofessional, interruptive. I regret ever dealing with them. Happy to terminate the process and redo everything with another company if I can get a refund. Truely worst customer experience I have ever seen in Dubai. Worst than low cost restaurants and kiosks in the street. I have never written a bad review like this and i still have more to add.

PMA Bad 4 years ago

Positive experience: Booking classes is very difficult if you book for fixed price courses. They will tell they will get back. If you call after 2 days and say I called you before 1 week. Then they will book classes. Means only giving priority to the angry and normal paying students. Fixed price courses very low priority.

They don’t care. Some of the employees are rude. They complicate the process instead of making things easier and smoother . They just want ur money. I don’t recommend it at all. Try other schools .
