Booking Your Test with Construction Card Services

By booking your test with us, you fully acknowledge that your booking is for arranging the test and not for the selected date, as all bookings are sold 'subject to availability.' The fee you pay includes the £22 test fee and our booking and support fee. The details you provide when filling out the form will be used to process your booking. We are not responsible for any incorrect details you provide. If an error occurs on our part, such as submitting incorrect details, we will correct it at no extra charge. The Construction Card Services team reviews every booking for inaccuracies. If additional information is needed or we believe you've booked the wrong test or test center, we will contact you via email to confirm your details before proceeding with your test booking.

Please contact us at Support@constructioncardservices.com if you find any errors in your order. It is your responsibility to attend the test center on the correct date and time. We cannot accept liability for your absence under any circumstances. It is also your responsibility to bring the correct ID/documentation to the test center. Once we have confirmed the booking and sent the confirmation to you, we are not responsible for any actions taken afterward. Your payment fully covers the test fee and an administration fee. As a third-party booking agent, we charge a fee for the management services we provide, including:

Construction card services explicitly states that we are not part of, or associated with CSCS or CITB.

Reviewing each booking to ensure the details are correct and that the correct test is booked

Securing the requested date, time, and venue (or the nearest available option)

Notifying the customer of confirmed test dates via email and/or text message

Handling any rescheduling or cancellation requests

The price for our booking service is the amount displayed during the booking process on the website. Full payment is required before we can book your test. Your statutory rights as a consumer are not affected by these terms and conditions. You also retain other rights when placing a booking through Construction Card Services.
