DVLA being efficient?

I nearly fell off my chair!

I lost my licence and counterpart thanks to an internal mail foul up at work, so had to order a new one. Did it online at 9pm on Tuesday, and it plopped through my letterbox today, complete with all my entitlements (yay!) and all my points (boo! And I did like the old-school charm of the points being written in biro with really poor handwriting).

I can only assume that, as I verified my ID electronically, no humans were involved in the process!

Printed them on - it's quite feasible for that to be produced from the driver record automatically.

I sent my pass certificate off the other day to add my car entitlement with a D1 form after the examiner had fucked up sending my licence away.

Within a week I have a shiny new licence with the updated address with all my categories. Is this a new trend we're seeing?

Maybe, they have some holiday cover people working in the offices who aren't down to the usual standard of DVLA wonk.

I had 2 tax reminders in 1 envelope. I thought there was a mistake with them wanting £16 for 12months on my car! Sad

Bastards got my hopes up!
