Thank you for this honest and detailed 3-star review, Jessica. We really appreciate your fairness in acknowledging that the course itself was great, but more importantly, we want to sincerely apologize for the customer service experience you had. You're absolutely right to be upset. Getting no answer on 20+ calls, no response on live chat, and no response to voicemails is inexcusable. That's not acceptable service, especially when you needed help accessing a course you'd already paid for. The 30-minute email response was also too slow given the urgency of your situation. This is feedback that stings because it's accurate. Our phone and chat support dropped the ball, and you shouldn't have had to spend over an hour trying to reach someone. The fact that you were eventually helped doesn't excuse the lack of responsiveness on multiple channels. We're taking this seriously internally. This kind of failure in support response is unacceptable, and we're committed to doing better. You deserved faster help on the first attempt, not the third. We're glad you were able to complete the course successfully, and we genuinely appreciate you sharing this feedback so constructively. It helps us identify where we're failing our students. Thank you for choosing Defensive Drivers Institute, and again, our sincere apologies for the support experience.

Thank you for your feedback, Cordelia. We're confused by your 1-star rating, as your written review is entirely positive. You mention enjoying the course and praise the audio visual content, videos, explanations, tests, and quizzes. It seems there may have been a mistake when selecting your star rating. Could you clarify whether the 1-star was intentional, or if you meant to leave a higher rating that matches the positive feedback you provided in your review? We'd appreciate the opportunity to understand your actual experience. Thank you for choosing Defensive Drivers Institute.

Thank you for your 4-star review. We understand your concern about the time discrepancy between the advertised 5 hours and the actual completion time. The 5-hour minimum refers to the instructional content mandated by the New York State DMV. However, the full course also includes multiple knowledge checks and assessments throughout, as well as the state-required timers between sections. These additional components do add to the overall completion time. Thank you for choosing Defensive Drivers Institute and drive safely!

Thank you for your 3-star review, Whitney. We appreciate your feedback and we're glad you found the knowledge valuable overall. Regarding the time gaps you experienced, those are related to Arizona state requirements for minimum time spent on each section. We wish we could make the course move faster for students who are ready to continue, but we're required to enforce these timers to maintain our state approval. As for the content level, Arizona mandates a comprehensive defensive driving curriculum that covers all aspects of safe driving, regardless of why someone is taking the course. While it may feel more basic for experienced drivers taking it for a speeding ticket, we're required to cover these topics as part of the state-approved program. We're glad the course ran smoothly and that you appreciated the self-paced format with quizzes. If there's anything else we could have done to make your experience better, we'd love to hear from you. Thank you for choosing Defensive Drivers Institute and drive safely!
