We established a new business and were looking for help with a few items and they came through. I would recommend Riverbend Registry to any business for corporate searches and registrations. read less

David not only highlighted my strengths but, more importantly, provided insightful guidance on improving my weaknesses. His understanding of the specific areas requiring attention contributed significantly to my journey toward success. Together, David and I collaborated on refining my skills, and I am genuinely grateful for his exceptional role as the best examiner. read less

I arrived early to the registry and was welcomed by friendly and helpful staff. Mr. David was my examiner, a respectful, patient and well-mannered fellow.
I will definitely recommend Arrow driving school and visiting this registry to transact business.
A very pleasant experience all around. read less

After getting into the city I notice a police cruiser follwing me for a couple blocks.

He pulls me over and tells me my license has expired. Totally forgot my license expired in April. Doh!

Luckily he lets me off with a warning as long as I get it fixed right away.
A quick google search and I found the Riverbend Registries a couple minutes away.
Worst part, the registries was closing in 2 minutes.

I got there a couple minutes after 6 and I asked if they can help me. Without hesitation they smiled and said “absolutely”

The friendliness this location gave me was just splended.

I write this review today as I wanted to express my gratitude.

If I ever moved to Edmonton, I will definitely come back to this location for all my registries need. read less

I went in and asked them to look over my car about a week early to make sure that it was acceptable to use for my test, which gave me some peace of mind. The cost of the test was less than expected, only about $93 (I had read that some locations charged about 150 for the test). For the test itself it was about 20 minutes long and was pretty straightforward, mostly just following directions as they're given and then you make choices about right of way and navigating to follow the directions. I practiced driving in the area several times before the test to get more comfortable and know what to expect from the roads and found the neighbourhood to be beautiful and have lots to play around with. The neighborhoods around the registry have good curbs and lots of good spots for parallel parking practice if you want to practice beforehand. The hills in the area are a mix of fairly shallow and steep in terms of hill parking, so you will have options to practice different kinds of slopes. There is also both angle parking and perpendicular parking spots in the parking lot so you have some good options before and after the test. In the debrief discussion after the test, the point deductions that I received seemed fair, and the examiner gave feedback for each of the deductions and listened to my explanations as well. The examiner explained what to expect from the test process, answered all my questions before we started the test, and did not seem rushed, so ask as many questions as you need so you feel prepared to start. The registry was a bit busy (but comparable to other registries that I have been to, so this is as expected) and the staff all were very nice and friendly regardless. After you book your exam the system suggests you arrive half an hour early to your test time, and I do suggest doing that as you will need to wait in line and don't want to be stressed about starting late. Overall I had a good experience, and it was one of the registries recommended by my driver school instructor in terms of being a good location (lots of residential areas and not too many major roads). read less

They helped me get my registration renewed, address updated and helped my son get his road test. One star off for the additional charge for paying with a credit card. Just bring your debit card and you’ll be good. read less

I am very impressed by the staff’s reception. The examiner Devid is an excellent examiner. He helped me to calm down during my test. I have a severe test anxiety that made me fail several times with several examiners. But the way Devid approached to me that relieved me 70%. I am very thankful to him!! read less
