Hello,

I joined a traffic school. When I call the guy he said “you come for the first session, and we will decide a package for you” and here it’s normally the first session is free. And then I took his package that day because he was teaching well and nice to me. Then I had another session with him and he was yelling at me for the 70% of the driving session.

So since I cant tolerate his yelling which made me very nervous I decided to cancel him.

So before the cancellation the price was 1400 nok (1st day session + 1.5 hour 2nd session) in TABS.

Now since I said that I am canceling he had put 10 minutes session in TABS and charged me 900 kr, to make the total 2100 nok(700 x 3), and I called him and then he said since you cancelled you will have to pay for the every session.

I know 700 nok is not much but he was a very bad teacher and I dont want to pay for the first session.

In TABS now it shows 2100 nok.

What can I do guys?

  1. Can I just neglect it?
  2. Pay 1400 nok and neglect him?
  3. Pay the whole amount and accept the loss.
  4. Any other option?

I want to do whats legal. And if i can not pay him the extra 700 nok Id be happy to do that. 😓
Please help me guys.

  1. 1. No, then the bill will go to collection and you will end up paying mire.
    2. No. Same as above.
    3. Yes
    4. You can respnd that ypu don’t accept the charge and fight it. This will take a lot of energy and you may still lose in the end. Not worth it in my opinion.
    5. Threaten with bad reviews on social media.

  2. I’d probably take the loss, complain to the driving school and name them publicly for yelling at you. Getting a driving license in this country is such a ridiculous pain in the rear already. Having to deal with some shithead yelling at you is just too much.

  3. The important question here is whether you were informed in advance that you would be charged for the free lesson if you cancelled. If you weren’t informed about this, you can contest the bill and refuse to pay the additional charge.

    If nothing was agreed in writing it might be difficult to prove however, as it will be word against word. If the case goes to collections you might lose the case, in which case you’ll be out the full amount plus fees.

    If you have proof that the offer was for a free lesson with no strings attached, I would fight the charge.
