We’re often asked what the difference is between the Book Theory Test Today website and the government website service for booking a theory test and practical exam. This quick-fire guide explains the differences and how to get the most out of the Book Theory Test Today website.
The government website describes itself as the so-called, ‘official’ theory test and practical driving exam booking service, while labelling services like those provided by Book Theory Test Today as ‘copycat’ sites…
…However, these simply aren’t the facts. The Book Theory Test Today website offers the same service as the government website, with some added benefits. Not every learner driver has time to book a theory test, which is why customers use the Book Theory Test Today website to book a test on their behalf, saving them time and money.
A lot of our customers are college or university students and working professionals, most of whom have busy schedules. Therefore, they rely on our service for a quick and cost-effective way to book a driving theory test or practical exam.
Upfront about fees
The government’s theory test and practical booking service claims that websites like Book Theory Test Today overcharge customers. However, this is a false statement when put into context.
The Book Theory Test Today website charges £23, payable to the DVSA, plus a £21.99 admin fee to cover our staff and website operating costs. Book Theory Test Today’s admin charge also gives customers access to our three, free retests scheme for theory tests.
The government website charges £23, with no added costs – or so it would seem. Wait a minute? The Book Theory Test Today site charges £44.99 for its service and the government site charges £23 – surely the government’s claims about sites like Book Theory Test Today overcharging customers are true – well, not entirely.
It’s true that our service costs more to book a theory test, but our free, three retests scheme actually means passing a theory test costs less overall. How?
Just over half of women (50.7 percent) and less than 50 percent of men (46.8 percent) passed the theory test first time between April 2017 and March 2018. Just one retest when booking through the government means that you will spend £46 on two theory tests as you’re charged again if you fail.
In fact, since 2013, the government has pocketed a whopping £103,795,860 from learner drivers having to resit their driving theory exam.
However, should you fail your theory test first time, but you booked your test via the Book Theory Test Today website, you’re covered by up to three, free retests, but you’ve still only paid £44.99.
