      Resolved
      In September of 2023 I went on line and scheduled my grandson **** ********* up for the 8hr. Driving school. I should have read the reviews first but I didn't .**** was constantly trying to schedule driving and called Schwartz to complain, was told they were trying to get instructors. He got his 1st driving end of ,, November. He then started tying to schedule more driving but schedule was full thru January. This was so frustrating that he found another school that has him scheduled to be finished by January 25th. Again if I had read reviews first I would not have gone with Schwartz. The only answer they give is that they have 6 months. What they have is too many students and to few instructors, and saying the schedule is first come first serve. That means someone who signs up in October could get on line faster than someone who signed up in September if it's 1st come first serve. Why can't Schwartz let student schedule all 4 classes when they initial join . No because they don't hire enough instructors and expect students to just keep checking schedule and hopefully they will luck out and find one. I lost 495 dollars and got nothing. My grandson got signed up with better school the middle of December and will be done by end of January. Im requesting a full refund. And hopefully Schwartz will stop over scheduling.

      I paid and got a start date for my son. He attended classes and then needed to schedule his in cars. Had to call for weeks, and could not get ahold of anyone. Finally, ******* returned my call only to tell me that she could not find my son in her system. She asked for me to send proof through emails, which I never received, so instead I looked up my bank account statement and sent that. She called back to tell me that they still needed the emails for “proof.” She was extremely rude and the whole situation was aggravating, especially since a very similar situation happened with my older son just 2 years ago!! Her accusations was out of line and so was her attitude. She called back to tell me she found him under my name. I asked to speak to a manager after I felt like she was still being rude, and sarcastic and took pleasure in telling me that he couldn’t get scheduled until the end of October and that i would need to call back beginning of October. I then asked to speak to a manager who was just as rude. Then asked to speak to a higher up, and the manager would not give a name or a time I could call her manager. When I asked for corporates number the manager said she was refunding me my money and my son could go somewhere else and proceeded to hang up on me!!
