Well, the DVLA came up trumps!!!!

Yes, hear the shock in my voice. Licence sent 1st class on Wednesday 13th, returned to me on Friday 22nd.............with everything correct.


So I have to take it all back, my skepticism was undeserved, they came up trumps.


Though if I am going to moan, my old licence expired at the end of August, but as we will be in the Southern Hemisphere then, I did the renewal when the reminder came through. My new licence is valid from the day they issued it, for one day less than ten years............so in effect I have lost a month. Now as the passport people can give you up to nine months credit if you renew your passport early, I don't see why the DVLA can't do the same. Now I know my entitlement to drive has not changed, but if you have to pay £20 every ten years for a new licence, and you renew slightly early, then you aren't getting 10 years are you...............if you see what I mean.????
