dvla

I am just about to pop down to the local office in order to have a v750 processed to put a mark onto a vehicle I own. If I do this in person, some of the blurb I have read implies that it is a while-you-wait service and unless they are busy, you collect your documents which, I assume, comprise a...

Renewed my Road Tax on-line on Sunday afternoon. I am now holding the new tax disk Well done DVLA and Post Office

After buying my Merc almost 1 month ago, I am still waiting for the DVLA papers to arrive and confirm I am the new keeper. I also need desperately to show these papers to the Merc Dealership in order for them to issue me a new car key (I only got 1 key :doh: ). From your experience guys...

I had to visit my local DVLA office last week and noticed a poster there regarding plans by the government to close all 39 local DVLA offices. I have used this office a couple of times in the past year and always found them helpful and efficient, as opposed to the service provided by DVLA...

:DDecided to change from my 1980 green paper driving licence to the current card type. Given that I moved house a few years ago (the licence was still registered at my parents home) it was time to change the address in the process. Also, all my points have expired and I fancied a nice...

Just came across this article on the BBC website, looks like there are plans to shut all of the DVLA's regional offices and centralise services in Swansea. I know a number of offices were reduced a few years back, and can see how further savings / cuts may be needed: BBC News - DVLA...

Visited the DVLA in Sheffield on the 21st of November (One week ago) to retain my private plate and within two days I received my new MOT & tax disc and have today received the V5 with the original plate! It normally takes about 3 weeks in my experience, so they must either be getting better...

Hi, Anyone registered to bid on the dvla auction this week. I am after a plate.

Has anyone had, or is having problems with the dvla? It dosent seem to matter what is, be it a logbook, sorn reminder, or anything else that I have to deal with them over. They allways make it a drama. The latest in their long line of cockups, is to fine me for not sorning a car that was...

Alan Clarke told to surrender 'obscene' number plate after DVLA sold it to him | Mail Online Make your mind up DVLA?

Any idea on the average time for a refund? It used to be about a fortnight. I'm waiting 8 weeks for one at the moment. Normal?

The RFL on my W204 expires on 31st December so, bearing in mind the lack of post that can be expected over the Christmas period, I like to renew as soon as I can. Now, last year I actioned the renewal notice as soon as I received it on 11th December but this year I still hadn't received the...

I run a second car (which is currently garaged and not in use). I just realised my tax should be up for renewal (end of November) but I had not received any reminders. I just checked the tax disc on the car - yup expired 30/11/10 so thought I'd better SORN or tax it to avoid the automatic fine...

Anyone ever requested that a particular registration number be included in a future auction? If so, do they contact you to let you know before they auction it?

Hello Just had the retention certificate back off the A class we had and also have part of the V5 off the new to us car we bought (Sections 10 and 11). Question please..... Can I take the retention certificate and this part of V5 to transfer plate onto new to us car. Or do I need to...

Hi All, Some advice if you will please: Today I received a letter from the DVLA saying that I failed to notify disposal of a vehicle and therefore have to pay a fine. However, the registration mark on the letter isn't one I recognise. The letter states that the transfer took place on...

The subject of non functioning public services is always guaranteed to make my blood pressure rise but today it's hit new heights because two of our money grabbing non performing "services" are involved, DVLA and our old friends The Post Office. I am not totally blameless in this in so far as I...

My dad has put a deposit down on a very nice V70 D5 SE LUX. It has just had a private plate taken off and it's original plate put back on. It was also registered for disabled tax(or something ) When i did an online HPI check it said neither they or DVLA had any records of the registration...
