Refund policy
Axis refund policy
Our refund policy is based according to our terms and conditions. Deposits are strictly non refundable. Refund will take up to 2 weeks to be released and showing into your account see table below . If a third party is paying on behalf of someone else then we require for card holder to request a written cancellation which can be sent by email. In principle the more work you asked us to do in order to get a placement and reserve your course and the later you leave it to cancel the more charges there will be, we will try to maintain a fair balance between driving instructors being affected by work cancelled at short notice and student reasons for cancelling.
1. Refund process steps
Step 1: Formal student or payee request to have the course cancelled and refunded and reason for it.
Step 2: Once confirmation of your last payment received on our side then a refund calculation letter will be created and sent to you which needs to be signed.
Step 3: Once all of above it has been received we can issue a refund. Approximate time length for you to receive and show on your account will depend on original payment method and amount claiming. Check table below.
2. What we will need for refunds
1. Reason for cancellation and refund verbal and written request
2. If a complaint has been issued we will need to dig into the whole story before issuing a refund
3. Account details (payment holder) unless payment was done by debit/credit card.

5. Remember
All refunds needs to be approved by management so your reason for refund it is important which will be judged individually so it will take some time to gather all evidence including the instructor comments, refunds maybe not approved and if so a credit note (transferable by name) maybe given instead as an act of good faith. Administration fee may apply.
