driving licence renewel

Post by silly suffolk »

any one out there got the business to pay the £20 to renew their photo driving licence after the 10 years when it expires? i expect the days of rm paying for this type of thing are gone but its worth a punt to try perhaps?

Baring in mind your previous punts,I think you can guess the answer...

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

At the risk of being dubbed pedantic and of leading this topic further off track I would suggest that they are both 'solved' and 'stopped', although 'prevented' might be a more precise term than 'stopped' for those that don't need to be 'solved' because they've not been committed. :Very Happy

I stumbled upon a free way of updating a driving license photo, mine was due to be updated and as i had just moved house sent off my license to change the address so popped in a pic on the off chance, when they sent it back they had updated it, saving me £20. I know its a bit long winded but if you can swop it to say your parents house and then swop it back to your own, just pop a pic in and hopefully this will work.
