Lost Licence

[toby1]

Ordered a new car (Audi) on lease hire (distant supplier JCT600 group). Part of agreement process was sight of my original driving licence. Me not happy but assurances of registered post etc do 100's a year, all assurances and a blue chip Company so I sent it in registered post and they acknowledge receipt.

So they've lost it. Many apologies from up high Management meet all costs compensation etc.

I haven't applied for replacement yet. I have heard of nightmare situations where replacement licences come back with lost entitlements particularly A motorcycle. So my situation is, it may all run smooth new licence with all endorsements delivered and OK. Or the doomsday scenario.

In preparation, is there anything online about my current entitlements I can copy / download before a request for a new licence wipes this?

I didn't photo copy my licence before I sent it but would this be acceptable evidence in any case?

Am I just paranoid and the DVLA will always help in this situation?

Guess I'll just have to go for it with fingers crossed, stupid you also have to pay for the possibility they cock it up.

The only thing they officially accept to restore lost categories is a copy of your test pass certificate. You can get them from your original test centre if a) It's still open and b) You can remember when you did it.

I'd like to think the three driving licences I didn't send back when I had them replaced would stand up to a fair amount of scruitiny.

I've used the old phone service many times. It cost ~£20 and usually arrived within the week.
