Last Updated: April 21, 2026
Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully before using the English Driving School website and services. By accessing or using our service, you agree to be bound by these terms.
1. Definitions
"English Driving School" / "EDS": Juan Jesús Gil Lamela, NIF: 78967382X, operating the website www.englishdrivingschool.com
"User": Any person who accesses or uses the EDS platform
"Service": Online theory test preparation materials, including practice questions, theory book, and audiobooks
"Subscription": Paid access to the Service for a defined period
"Upgrade": Changing from a lower-tier plan to a higher-tier plan during an active subscription
"Renewal": Purchasing a new subscription period after the current one has expired or is about to expire
2. Service Description
English Driving School provides online educational content to help foreign residents in Spain prepare for the DGT (Dirección General de Tráfico) theory driving test in English. The Service includes:
- Over 3,000 official DGT practice questions with explanations
- Practice by topic (10 subject areas)
- Online theory book (updated for 2026)
- Audiobooks (available on higher-tier plans)
- Progress tracking and weak-area identification
- Reference documents
3. Subscription Plans and Pricing
We offer two ways to pay: one-off plans of a fixed duration, and a monthly subscription that renews automatically until you cancel it. Current prices are displayed on the registration page and may be subject to promotional discounts. All prices include applicable taxes.
3.1 Plan Features
- Online Access (Plan 1) — €29.95: Access to all 3,000+ questions, practice by topic, and progress tracking. Valid for 90 days.
- Online Access + Book (Plan 2) — €39.95: Everything in Plan 1, plus the online theory book. Valid for 90 days.
- Full Course (Plan 3) — €49.95: Everything in Plan 2, plus audiobooks. Valid for 180 days.
The same access is also available as a monthly subscription:
- Online Access — €14.99 per month: the same content as Plan 1, billed every month until you cancel.
- Online Access + Book — €19.99 per month: the same content as Plan 2, billed every month until you cancel.
The price you pay when you subscribe stays the same for as long as your subscription remains active, even if we change our prices later. Full Course is available only as a one-off plan.
3.2 Duration
One-off plans are time-limited: access expires on the date shown in your account, and once it expires, access to paid features is suspended until you buy a new period. Nothing is charged automatically.
The monthly subscription has no end date. It is charged every month and your access is extended each time, until you cancel it. Your account always shows the date your current access runs to.
In both cases your study progress and statistics are kept, even while your access is suspended.
4. Upgrade
If you have an active subscription (Plan 1 or Plan 2) and wish to access features included in a higher-tier plan, you may purchase an Upgrade at any time from your account area.
If you are on a one-off plan, an Upgrade grants immediate access to the additional features of the new plan. The remaining days of your current subscription are preserved. The Upgrade cost reflects the difference in value between your current plan and the new plan, as displayed at the time of purchase.
If you are on the monthly subscription, upgrading changes your subscription from €14.99 to €19.99 per month. You are charged only the proportional part corresponding to the days left in the current month, and from the following month you are billed the new amount. Full Course is not available as an upgrade from a monthly subscription, because it is a fixed-duration product.
5. Renewal
When your subscription expires, you may renew it from your account area. Renewal purchases a new subscription period starting from the date of payment. Your accumulated study progress and statistics are retained across renewals.
You may choose any available plan upon renewal, regardless of your previous plan.
5.1 Monthly Subscription (auto-renewing)
As an alternative to the one-off plans above, we offer a monthly subscription billed in advance at €14.99 (Online Access) or €19.99 (Online Access + Book). The subscription renews automatically every month until you cancel it, and each renewal is charged to the payment method you provided.
You can cancel at any time from your dashboard, in one click. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the period you have already paid for: you keep full access until that date, and no further charges are made. We do not require you to contact us or give a reason.
If a payment fails, we keep your access active for a short grace period while the payment is retried. If it cannot be collected, the subscription ends and access lapses on its normal expiry date. Monthly subscriptions are processed by Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd., and you receive an emailed receipt for every charge.
The monthly subscription and the one-off plans are independent products. Buying one does not cancel the other: if you hold a subscription and also purchase a one-off plan, remember to cancel the subscription so you are not charged twice. Any access time you have already paid for is never lost.
6. Payment Terms
6.1 Payment Methods
We accept the following payment methods:
- Bank card (Visa, MasterCard, Maestro, American Express): processed via Redsys, the secure payment gateway used by Spanish banks.
- PayPal: processed by PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A.
- Stripe: used for monthly subscriptions, processed by Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd. Your card details are stored by Stripe, never by us, so that renewals can be collected automatically.
6.2 Payment Security
All card payments are processed directly on Redsys's secure payment page (PCI-DSS compliant). EDS does not see, handle, or store your card details at any point. PayPal payments are handled entirely within the PayPal environment.
6.3 Billing
All subscriptions, upgrades, and renewals are one-time payments — there are no recurring charges or automatic renewals. You will receive an email confirmation upon successful payment. Access is granted or upgraded immediately after payment verification.
7. Refund Policy
In accordance with Article 103(a) of Royal Legislative Decree 1/2007 (Spanish Consumer Law), the right of withdrawal does not apply to digital content services that have been fully delivered with the user's prior consent. However, we offer refunds under the following conditions:
- 7-day cooling-off period: You may request a full refund within 7 days of purchase, provided you have not accessed more than 25% of the available content.
- Technical issues: If a verified technical problem prevents access to the service for more than 48 hours and our support team is unable to resolve it.
- Monthly subscription: because you can cancel at any time before the next charge, renewals are generally non-refundable. If you were charged for a month you did not intend to renew and you have not used the service in that period, contact us and we will refund it. Refunding a charge also ends the access it paid for.
Refund requests must be sent to info@englishdrivingschool.com with your order details. Approved refunds are processed within 14 days to the original payment method. Upgrades and renewals are subject to the same refund conditions.
