A tax-funded govt office, there to serve the public (so long as you don't mind paying extortionate fees for stuff that should already be covered by your road-tax and gasoline-tax), charging premium-rate 0870 for all calls.

They really are scum.

What number were you trying to ring?

Have a look on https://www.saynoto0870.com to find the geographical number.

I looked them up on the net, tried both the local Brighton office and the national office, and both show only 0870 numbers. So I asked the bird who eventually answered (funny how the robots keep you on for ages, while that old premium rate keeps ticking away) and she confirmed that it is a premium rate call. Wasted another minute telling her what I thought of the criminal filth running the show, poor cow.

The british public are hostages to one of the most monumentally criminal gang of scum, filth and vermin to have ever 'governed' this country. And that's a simple fact. Over-run by immigrants from some of the most desperately vile countries and cultures on the planet, taxed until we bleed and mega-corporations allowed to perpetrate financial atrocities without so much as a shred of restraint.

This country is an utter sewer, and there is not one single thing we can do about it. Democracy? Two gangs of the exact same crooks. No other choice, no proportional representation, just a sham.

I can hardly wait for the whole rotten lot to come crashing down. I hope it's in my lifetime.

Just had a quick search through, this number seems to work - 01792 794200 it's what the 0870 8500007 (local offices) translates to.

I can find nothing in this statement with which I disagree.

I don't know how that makes me feel Thinking

DVLA online is a good service tho - well as good as any can be which is designed to take my money.

0870 aint premium rate..... Its only 8 to 10p a min....

premium rate is the 09 and 50P+ a min....

The 0870 started off as a good idea, one number to call from anywhere in the UK rather than the old system where there could be 3 diffrent dialing codes depending on where you lived compared to where you were calling. Then somone cottoned on to the fact that it could be a good money spinner.

If you cant find the std number via sayno site try yell or BT online and do a address search. Oten works to find anotehr number. Although there are a few where you will never find a 01/02 code as they use voip.

To be fair, they have to fund their "over 50% throw a sickie" culture somehow...

I hate the DVLA already. But now ive got to ring them up tomorow to get my licence fast tracked as theyre putting my points on. And i need it back to sort this producer malarky out.

Which raises another question, i sent of my photo card licence and paper counter part to get said points endorsed. Now, the letter that they sent me had a tear off slip at the bottom explaining that, untill i got my licence back from the theiving cunts the slip was now my licence. Now knowing the DVLA this could be sodding weeks or months providing they dont lose the fucking thing. I digress, when i get given a producer by a very friendly policeman who let me off with some questionable riding, i ask him if the slip would be enough as i dont have my licence to which he said yes.

I go into the local cop shop, hand over my details which were in a big folder with everything in them. I explain my situation and she says she cant accept it because i could of stolen this slip. I told her the DVLA said this was my temporary licence and even made her read the slip which explained this. She still wasnt having any of it. Asked for my bank card and still wouldnt let me get the producer checked off.

Now seriously what kind of fectard robs someones details and then goes and clears up a producer any way. Fuckin useless cunts that run this country.

And hetzer, i completely agree. I want this country to colapse and get re built. Because its fucked as it is.

Seriously, what kind of fucktard gets himself a producer while his licence is away getting re-pointed?

Okay i left myself a bit open there. But still its the principal of the thing. 2 Sectors of the government that should be in cooperation having a disagreement about a slip the other ones provided. Laughing

And no, i did pay my road tax. I just got caught doing 89 in a 60. So i had to send it away for my 5 points.

I wish I was alive in the times of the poll tax riots and the minors riots etc.

I'm getting truely sick of how this country is going. As a kid I posted leaflets for Labour through doors in my area with my dad who was affiliated with the party. Now they are selling us down stream just as much as the tories.

Is it sadistic for me to want to be involved in a massive political movement / riot. I envisage 1000's of people heading down the M1 from the forgotten wastelands of the old mining / manufacturing towns of the north and the midlands and just going around trashing Canary Wharf, Central London and the government offices.

Sounds bad, but I would imagine that a lot of others have the exact same dreams!

BURN BITCH BURN!!!!!!!!!! The problem with this place is that its the minority making descisions for the majority. Now i know the majority will not always get along. But surely a majority vote would sort that out. Because at the monent its the fat, rich, in it for themselves minority that are taking liberties and fooking this place up. We need a complete overhaul of the system and the useless c*nts that are in control of it.

From now on, all proposed laws should be held to a public vote, twice. To make sure its what we want. Get rid of all that EU bullshit. And legalise weed for fucks sake.

another 1215 moment eh? , the problem is the government would deploy machine guns against those people in the same manner as in '89 massacres (China).
