DVLA update 7:46pm on 04 May 2009 I passed my test 3 months ago. Ive still yet to recieve my new licence. Turns out they sent it to my old address and they claim i never informed them of the change of address details - it was on the bottom of the paper licence at the point of taking my test.

I now have to apply for a replacement licence - lost licence according to them and being told it is entirely my fault......(how can i lose something ive never recieved?)

I do have proof i passed my test luckily but still, I WANT MY LICENCE!!

Do they keep the original licences that are sent to them so that they can be shown up for the incompetent fools they are?!
DVLA removing licence entitlements 7:35pm on 04 May 2009 I passed my driving test 3 months ago. As i had moved prior to my test i filled out the information at the bottom of my paper licence and duly handed it to the examiner at the start of my test. He confirmed id moved at that point and again at the end of my test.

6 weeks after passing my test i still hadn't recieved my licence. Turns out (after 5 phone calls and being passed from pillar to post) that my licence had been sent to my old address - information i didnt find out from them but from knocking on the door of my old home. I complained to the DVLA and asked them if they could reissue my licence in my new address. I recieved a letter last week stating that i had never informed them of the change of address and that the lost licence was my fault entirely.

Im writing to them to ask if they can trace my provisional paper licence whereby they'll have concrete evidence they did make a complete balls up!!

Im loathed to send this one off to get it reissued, who knows where it might end up. Timbuktu perhaps?
