Had someone call to verify charge and when it was verified. Called to get a refund. I got the runaround for 10 days. Kept saying No one could help me. Then when I was able to get help, she lied about pricing. That's factual cause I called back with a different phone number and she quoted me the price I was attempting to get a refund for. Won't be surprised if they go OUT of business soon. Already left Mandeville and if you run a Crooked Business. Won't be in Hammond For long either ... Avoid them and get a reputable company

Our 16 year old son attended the Elite Driving Academy classes and passed his test with one of the…read morehighest scores on record, only getting two answers incorrect. The members of the driving school were very friendly, and according to our son, they made the classes both serious, using real life examples of the consequences of irresponsible driving versus responsible driving, but also used lots of humor making the class room time even more enjoyable. The prices our typical in comparison to other schools, and our family felt like this was a good investment with good results. Getting ready to sign our 15 year son to begin his driving permit classes, and he's stated he's going to beat his older brothers score by trying to get 100% on his final exam. Love the enthusiasm. Highly recommend this school.

I liked the fact that I could reach someone when I called and they were able to answer my questions. I signed my daughter up on their website and selected the class schedule. I had pay a deposit and the rest was due at the first lesson. Well something came up and at the last minute I needed to change the date. I called them and it was no problem. The morning of class we arrived and they were well organized and well prepared. They even had coffee and pastries. Everything was on schedule. Parents are required to attend the first hour and then it's the teenagers for the next two weekends. My daughter attended and passed all of her tests. Finally she was ready to hit the road with one of their instructors. She had to complete 8 hours and take a test before getting her license. They prepared her for everything and now she has her license. I definitely recommend Drive Dat Academy. They are a no nonsense company that takes driving seriously. The don't cut corners and I feel that they prepared my daughter.

Reasonable priced @ $50 deposit to reserve your spot in a class & the balance of $400 is due the first day of class. Parent orientation for the first day is required that last about 2 hours.

I have had other people recommend them to me as well.

The instructor will teach you not only the necessities, but also how to be a better driver overall. He will teach you all the rules - written and unwritten - that drivers should follow to minimize their own mistakes. When you learn to trust his methods, things really begin to shine. His business suffers only because he is independent (only one instructor! He is his own secretary) and does not advertise enough. Besides that, you should have no doubts or worries if you go with him. You will end up being a great driver who knows New Orleans roads better than you ever thought possible!

After taking his class you will end up being a knowledgeable, well-rounded, and smart driver that will know the ins and outs of the New Orleans road!

The end result is ridiculous, and they charged me $31.00 for this. Here are the photos: http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q192/jenagbucket/IMG_4988_zpsevfdqhav.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q192/jenagbucket/IMG_4999_zpsjpy3osi5.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q192/jenagbucket/IMG_4995_zpsjabm49jw.jpg Of course I wanted my $31.00 back, but there are a few problems getting that to happen: the school's unprofressional attitude, and their practice of charging to fix the hair they ruined. They want the same people to fix my hair, which is unacceptable. The school tried to bring up that I signed a waiver for service. Waivers of liability are not enforced in Louisiana because of Articles 2004, 28, 29, 1918 and 1923 of the Louisiana Civil Code. They offered me a different service like a manicure or a facial as an alternative, but I do not want that because I feel their teaching methods are below standard. I want my $31.00 back because I don't think I should pay a company to ruin my hair, and I believe this is a reasonable request. I have filed complaints with the Federal Trade Commission and the Louisiana Attorney General's office. My friend's mother had to pay $100.00 to have my hair fixed. My next step is small claims court/legal action. My advice to you is to think, think, and think again about whether you want to trust them with your hair. BB
