I hope I understand correctly that I can, if I choose do the 35 hours with five different companies and also choose to mix PSV and HGV syllabus. However I am now being told that it is perfectly acceptable to do the same ‘lesson’ (eg. driver’s hours) five times and that it will count as 35 hours training. Is this really true?

Yes it’s perfectly true, find the cheapest course going and do it five times and you’re good to go for another five years

Only if you have both LGV & PCV on your licence - any D1 or D1+E with a 101 code does not count for PCV
