Previously I have spent hours booking individual tests but thanks to the UK Construction Cards group booking service, I was able to book my entire workforce in through one quick application.

I had forgotten to renew and needed to take my test within a week but all my local centres were fully booked. CSCS booking was able to locate a centre with spaces and book for me.

Thank you UK Construction Cards for a quick and hassle-free booking system. Payments were quick and easy and I was able to use my PayPal account.

I had previously paid ridiculously high booking and admin fees just for my test (nearly £100!). I was cautions when I found The UK Construction Cards booking service but they turned out to be great value.

I had completely forgot my card was due to run out. Luckily my reminder from UK Construction Cards came just in time, I was able to book and take my renewal before my card ran out before I missed out on upcoming work.

All my selected centres I had chosen to take my test turned at out to be fully booked. A member of the CSCS booking team called me within 24hrs and helped me select another local centre.

My Fathers English is not great but being able to book a test in other languages, I was confident his language barrier would not prevent him getting a card.

I was able to book and pay for my test all through my phone. It was so quick and easy.

I hate booking things online and have lost money in the past when I have made errors. The UK Construction Cards booking team noticed my mistakes and called me back to ensure my details were correct.

I had no idea where to go to take a test but all I had to do was enter my postcode and the website told me the location of my nearest centres.

It was so easy! I was expecting a huge complicated application process but all I had to do was fill in one short and simple form and UK Construction Cards booking service took care of the rest.

Due to an illness in the family, I was unable to make my test date. The UK Construction card booking service were happy to reschedule my test without having to pay extra. Thank you!
