Shamsi Academy

I would not recommend Shamsi Academy to my worse enemy. In all my 38 years of life I have never been treated with such disrespect by any company. My niece needed to take her driving test. Last month we used Greg’s driving school. They were excellent. Unfortunately when I called them to schedule they were booked for the summer. I searched on line and found Shamsi the worse driving on the planet. When I called to schedule the Mr. Ali told me I had to come in and pay and fill out paperwork. My first initial visit was OK. I asked if he would be giving my niece her 30 minutes practice and taking her to the MVA. I was sceptical because he was an older gentleman and was moving very slow. He told me another man name Zullar would be giving her practice and then let her drive to the MVA. A minute later I met Zullar. He repeated what Mr. Ali said. I explained to both gentle men that this would be my nieces second attempt and that she had everything she needed. The following week we showed up a few minutes earlier our appointment was at 10:30 a.m. we were there at 10:15. Mr. Ali told us to wait a few minutes he would be with us soon. At 10:30 on the dot Mr. Ali came back I assumed she would begin her practice immediately since that was the agreement 10:30 to 11 practice then head to the MVA, test was scheduled for 11:45. Mr. Ali begins looking through my nieces paperwork, I said everything is complete she has taken her driving and did not pass that is why we are here, can she begin her practice now. He ignored me and kept looking through the papers. Then I asked where is Zullar, Mr. Ali said he would be coming soon. After about 10 more minutes of slowly fumbling through paperwork and ignoring me he heads to the car with my niece to practice. After 10 minutes they were still in the parking space! I went to the car asked why haven’t she started driving we are over 20 minutes in to her 30 minutes of practice. He told me relax and have a seat inside. I was on fire by now but I new I had to relax because we had to get to the MVA. At 11:15 or so my niece walks back in without Mr. Ali, I ask her where he went she said she has know idea he did not say a thing to her. I called Zullar to find out what was going on no answer. I called Mr. Ali to ask what was going on he told me that he was responsible for my niece and that I could leave their and Zullar is stuck in traffic. I told him that I absolutely will not leave my niece and I planned to follow behind her and Zullar to the MVA. Then I asked why did you leave us with no explanation and shorted her practice he rudely shouted we are professionals I said professionals do not treat paying customers this way. About 11:25 Zullar comes in. I was in disbelief when the first sentence out of his mouth was «you can not sit there that is the office chair I said excuse me you decide to show up with out even a explanation of what kind business you are running and I can’t sit he said you could sit in another seat I said am not sitting any where my nieces appointment is in 15 minutes! He rudely said I know what time her appointment is. I began following them to the MVA of course he drove because he came late. I was so grateful I new where the MVA was, he was driving so fast I could barely keep up. By the grace of GOD, we arrived in line at 11:43. My niece passed her driving test. I was so happy that all the stress of the morning did not ruin her concentration. He did appolige, it met nothing to be he should have apologized the minute he arrived late. The worse driving school in history, they have no business being opened! I rate them zero stars.
