So what happens now that you've got an A license, mainly;
1) Did the insurance company ask what on earths going on since you've already declared full license but here you are on the phone saying you've gained it today.. or did you not do that?
2) Does the A license wipe the slate clean and the fact you've held an A2 license for two years count for nothing?
3) DVLA website still state that you've held A2? (that updates a lot quicker I think so might be worth checking back once it's been updated for A)
4) Push the insurance quotes up by much stating you've just gained your A today vs declaring a two year old A2 license?
I ask out of interest as I've got this brilliant whirlwind ahead of at some point.

They never asked me to specify if I had an A2 or A, so I assume they just think I have A. Fuckit, got away with it anyway. AFAIK "length license held for" is from the first time you ever get the pink license.

Doesn't wipe clean the slate, I still have two years no claims to prove I had a full license to ride the Ninja. As above, how long you've held your license counts from the day you get your pink license. In my book that means since I passed A2.

Not sure if they'll state I held A2, probably just A.

I declare my 2 year old A2 license. Unless the card comes back showing a different date of when it was issued. Gotta wait and see about that.
of course I'm just answering these with no actual research/background at all, just how I interpret all this confusing bollocks
@grr666
Yes I have my shiny certificates and surrendered my license. Waiting for the new one in the post. |

If they only distinguish between "provisional" and "full" so I don't see how else you could answer.
The question of how long you've had your license is trickier. You can put in the date of your first pass (whether that's A2 or A1 or even conceivably AM) but Careful Now.
Self, I now put 2010 when insuring the Enfield and Ninja (because that's when I got a 25kW license that covers those bikes), but 2012 for the Nazi Tractor (because that's when it automagically upgraded to full A). The difference between 4 and 6 years appears to be minimal anyway, but between 0 and 2 you're likely to see a big jump.
Best of luck. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.
