How to Get a Driving Test Refund

The refund rules are simple but strict. Here's exactly when you can and can't get your money back.

Full refund: 3+ working days notice

Cancel or change your test with at least 3 clear working days' notice and you'll get a full refund of £62.

No refund: less than 3 working days

Cancel with less than 3 working days' notice and you lose the full fee. Weekends and bank holidays don't count as working days.

DVSA cancellation: always refunded

If the DVSA cancels your test (weather, examiner issues, etc.), you get a full refund or free rebooking.

Better than cancelling: swap your date

Instead of cancelling and losing your slot (then waiting months to rebook), swap your date with another learner on Swappy. You keep a test booking — just a different date.

Don't cancel — swap instead

Keep your booking and get a better date — free on Swappy.
