Scam Alert..I was searching another traffic school and this site popped using words in their ad that are the same as the name of the one I was searching to click bait you into thinking they are that site. They gimmick you with a 78% off pricing of $5.95 then state there is a ***** and 3.00 processing fee.. then once you enter your info and go to the next page they tell you you now have to pay another 40$ or more for your certificate and ask if you want to add that to your charge but meanwhile they have already taken your $39.25 and now your stuck there realizing one this wasn't even the right site that pulled you in with their click bait but you are already out the money. And try calling their so called eager customer service and expect to never have your call answered. I called twice and was on hold for over 40 minutes with no hope in sight. If you are searching for another traffic school read very careful what pulls up because this company has programmed it so they are what you click on.Business response

The company charges an advertised 'lowest price available', but has a hidden high fee to email completion certificate after signing up for the course. I emailed but did not receive a reply about refunding the money so that I could choose a differnt course. Very unethical trick to charge $40 to email the certificate, and have it shown only after signing up and paying the separate $28 class fee.Business response

Dear Diana:
Our policy is to guarantee your satisfaction. We want you to be satisfied with our service and products and hold ourselves to the highest of ethical standards.
We apologize for any confusion. The fees vary based on the product(s) purchased, so the applicable fee breakdown is listed on the right side of the page where the credit/debit card information is entered when you visit our page at ********************************************** and select the "START NOW" button to register for the product(s) you need.
The certificate will be sent to you by USPS Standard Mail within 7-10 business days unless you choose to expedite the shipment. Expedited delivery is elective and enables you to receive your certificate electronically via email within the hour of course completion or via UPS Next-Day Delivery. There is indeed an additional fee charged by our fulfillment center to have your certificate emailed or sent to you via UPS Next Day delivery. This option is not required, it provides you the convenience of receiving it quickly. Charging a premium for a convenience is a routine business practice.
As a courtesy, we have now submitted a complimentary added the Email Delivery for free and refunded $29.95 to the credit/debit card. The refund should be posted on the credit/debit card within two business days. If not, we recommend you contact the credit/debit card company directly with the transaction number to track the refund.

I bought a Groupon from Lowest Price Traffic School on March *** **** for the * Hour Basic Driver Improvement course. It never said anything in the fine Print on Groupon about any additional charges. Every other course I have ever bought on Groupon has been for the whole course, nothing extra needing to be paid. The moment I went to use the Groupon, this place, which guarantees that it is the lowest price (which is a lie), charges $** or so to finish enrollment in the course (something never disclosed on the groupon). Then, if you want a certificate of completion emailed to you (which most of the other similar courses all do automatically), you have to pay another $*0. They steer you away from the free mail option by putting it at the bottom of the options, saying it takes many weeks, and even having a "fun fact" that mail is often delayed. It is so coercive, misleading and Deceptive, meant to milk you of every extra dollar they can throughout the whole process. It was such an upsetting experience.Business response

I feel this company participates in deceptive advertising and charges. I signed up for traffic school through the ******************** when I paid my traffic ticket, the promoted service "lowestpricetrafficschool", was advertised for $4.95,I was billed for 3/10 for $39.25, which understandably included ******** taxes, ect, on 10/12, I was billed another $29.88 for a test re-take, also understandable and agreed to. Then I was billed another $39.95 for what they say is the email of the results-not agreed to or expected as I was in no rush for the results.-- then another bill for $14.95 for I don't know what. When I called to ask for the charges to be removed, they claimed I agreed to and chose these services.Business response

A search of our support box and did not find a communication from your email. What address did you use to reach us?
Our records indicate you reached us via our call center on September 15, 2023. We do not have a record of any contact with us prior to this date. You did provide a citation number at the conclusion of the course therefore a certificate was not generated upon completion. After speaking to one of our representatives we determined you were not eligible to take the 4 hour BDI course as you had taken it twice before. This was confirmed via the Palm Beach Clerk of Court Website. You provided the citation number during this call and we emailed a copy of the certificate to as you stated you wanted to submit the certificate to the Clerk Of Court in person.
We have refunded all monies paid for the course as we strive for 100% customer satisfaction. Notwithstanding these disclosures, we again sincerely apologize for any confusion or frustration this experience has caused you.

This company has charged me 9.95 dollars for months from my bank account. I can only go back three months electronically. I paid for all products and services. They have absolutely no reason to bill me. I want this company to reconcile this. I did not opt for any continuance of services or products. I will block them and report them as fraud to my bank. However this does not solve the problem of what is owed to me by this company.Business response

I'm filing a complaint for a full refund safedriver.com. I believe this company scammed me of $140 dollars. I don't know what exact location their building is, but this isn't right. And I'm probably not the first person they scammed either. All I was trying to do was take the Drug and Alcohol Course. But then they added things that I didn't need or want. I'm not looking for any trouble, I just want my $140 dollars back.Business response
