A while back I was in a hurry and did a google search. bookyourroadtest.com was first in the hit list because the people who made this website employed google adwords... thereby making themselves first. Similiar phrases to put in google "book your road test", "book ontario road test"... effective because its first. After signing into this my wife said who had previously booked her test... the site has changed and they charge more. I thought about it and immediately got suspicious. In my earnest to get her back into taking her exam I had obviously been careless on not researching the website first.

My haste got me in trouble and I immediately started investigating minutes after this had gone through and had her contact the bank. Although my wife got a charge later on her credit card, she did not end up paying the charges. But... you can imagine i was pretty angry. Yes, and I wanted to get even.

I contacted google... they would do nothing. Said they could not monitor millions of websites but I thought, yes, I gave them proof it was a scam.
I contacted tucows.com who issued them the domain... same thing, would do nothing. i contacted the UK media company that hosted their domain "WESTMIDLANDSMEDIA.CO.UK" who did not respond to my email. In short they are all getting money from these people to continue their domain, to continue their scam so indirectly they are profiting by it too. Despite the fact one can come up with proof through the various links and "prove" beyond a shadow of a doubt, you can't shut them down without the cooperation of any one of these business entities. I can't fault google or others so much but I wish there was a entity in place to report on them. So here we are in forums doing what we can.

I often wonder if the police in Ontario who know of this have pursued the same avenues.

For those who would defend them, they are misrepresenting what they do. Misrepresentation is a criminal activity. In short they are criminals. If a criminal hands you a document to sign, it doesn't unconditionally make it legal. If they actually provided a service
for your purchase, they may have legal precedence.

The one gratification I have is keeping such talk about bookyourroadtest.com = scam website alive on the web, so when google provides the links, hopefully people also see scam as well with respect to their website.

www.bookyourroadtest.com is 100% a SCAM

If they were not a scam, then police reports could not be found on the web about them.

any updates?

This was shown on PBS when I was DOWN A LITTLE and wanted to get a laugh. I enjoyed the same on that day. HOPE IT CHEERS YOU UP TOO.
