Talk to us
Questions about finding an earlier test? We're happy to help.
Helpful things to include
Sharing these straight away helps us start searching sooner. You don't need any of them just to ask a question, so if you're still deciding, a quick message is fine.
- Your name, exactly as it is on your provisional licence
- Your DVSA booking reference, if you already have a test
- Every test centre you would be happy to travel to
- The dates and times you can do, plus any you definitely can't
Why people usually email us
Checking the price
Our prices are competitive and can change, so we give you an up-to-date quote by email instead of listing a figure that might be out of date.
Saying yes to a slot
If you approve each slot yourself rather than using auto-booking, just reply to our WhatsApp and we will book it.
Your plans have changed
New free days, another test centre, different times? Let us know and we will adjust your search.
Paying for your new date
Once your earlier test is booked and you have the new date, time and centre, get in touch to pay. Nothing is due until then.
Maybe we've answered it already
Our most common questions, answered here so you don't have to wait for a reply.
How much do you charge?+
Our prices are competitive and can change, so please email us for the current price. You never pay upfront: payment only comes after we have found your earlier date.
Is this the DVSA?+
No. Early Slot Finder is independent and has no connection to the DVSA, the DVLA or any government body. For anything that needs the DVSA itself, please contact them directly.
Can I log in to the DVSA site to check progress?+
Please don't, whether directly or through any other app or service, until we have confirmed your new slot. Once your test is moved, we WhatsApp you the details and the DVSA emails its confirmation.
At what point do I pay?+
After we have found and booked your earlier test and sent you the new date, time and centre. If we don't find you an earlier test, there is nothing to pay. This is on top of your statutory rights.
Can two people share an account?+
No. An account only covers the licence holder whose details were entered when signing up. Anyone else needs an account of their own.
