A real call: Janine as “RoadReady Driving School”

JanineRoadReady Driving School, Janine speaking — how can I help?
CallerHi, I'd like to book a driving lesson for next week please. Just a single lesson if you've got availability?
JanineRight, what area do you live in or want lessons from?
CallerI'm in Watford, postcode W D 4 8 H X.
JanineThanks. Are you a complete beginner, or have you got some experience?
CallerI've got some experience already, I'm just looking to get some more practice in really.
JanineAnd do you drive manual or automatic?
CallerManual, so just a standard lesson would be fine.
JanineHave you got a test booked, and when?
CallerNo, I haven't got a test booked at the moment. I'm just wanting to build up my confidence a bit before I book one.
JanineRight. Do you hold a provisional licence?
CallerYes, I've got my provisional licence sorted.
JanineBrilliant. What days and times suit you next week?
CallerTomorrow morning would be ideal if you've got something available, otherwise just whenever you can fit me in really.
JanineI can't do tomorrow morning, but I've got 10:00 tomorrow with Steve for a manual lesson — does that work for you?
CallerActually, tomorrow won't work for me after all — I meant next week. What about Monday or Tuesday morning instead?
JanineI don't have Monday or Tuesday in next week available at the moment. I can offer you Thursday at 18:00 with Steve — would that suit?
CallerThursday at 6 o'clock works for me, yeah that's fine. Shall I give you my details then?
JanineWhat's your name?
CallerIt's Gemma Reid.
JanineAnd what's your house number and street in Watford?
Caller14 Station Road.
JanineOkay, so that's Gemma Reid, 14 Station Road, Watford, W D 4, 8 H X, Thursday 18:00 with Steve for a manual lesson at £38 — is that right?
CallerYes, that's all correct. Do you need my car registration as well?
JanineAnything else the team should know — parking, a gate code, dogs?
CallerNo, nothing like that. But I can give you my car reg if you need it — it's L B 1 9 X Y Z, blue Ford Focus.
JanineThanks for that. I'll text the confirmation to the number you're calling from. You're all booked, Steve will be with you Thursday at 18:00. Bye for now.

Questions driving instructors ask before signing up

How much does an AI receptionist cost for driving instructors?

£79 a month including 300 call minutes, then 15p a minute. Setup is £149, waived for the first five founder customers. There is no contract and no per-seat pricing; one price covers every call to your number.

Do driving instructors have to change their phone number to use Ring Janine?

No. You keep your number and divert it to Janine only when you don't answer, using one dial code that works on every UK network. Callers ring the number on your van, your website and Google, and Janine picks up on ring five if you can't.

What does Janine actually say when someone rings a driving instructor?

She answers as your business by name, finds out what the caller needs, takes the postcode, address and name, offers a slot from your real availability, reads the details back and texts the confirmation. The transcript on this page is a genuine call.

Does Janine quote prices for driving instructors?

Only the prices you give her. She never invents a figure: if something is not on your price list she says the office will confirm and takes a message. Call-out and fixed prices are quoted with what they cover, so a caller never hears a number on its own.

How does Janine handle emergencies for driving instructors?

Urgent jobs get the nearest slot today. If nobody is free she says so plainly, puts the caller through to your mobile, and if you can't pick up she takes the details and texts you straight away.

Can I hear Janine before I sign up?

Yes. Ring the demo line on 07360 266999, say "driving instructor" when she asks which business to be, and have a normal conversation. Nothing is stored except the demo transcript.
