Hi all. If anyone has any advice or has encountered this problem, I'd be grateful for any feedback.
On 9th April 2007 I was caught speeding by a mobile camera doing 62mph on a 50mph stretch of the A1. The following week I received a notice from my local Court asking for my license to be endorsed. I gladly sent it with the appropriate fine. I didnt dispute it at all. My license came back the following week with the endorsment hand written.
In June 2007 I moved address and sent my license to DVLA to have my details ammended. It came back changed and the endorsement was printed. All good so far.
Last week I received a letter from the DVLA saying that Bedford Court has notified them that I have had my license endorsed (issue 28 , however that wasn't the most recent license issued.
The point is, at the time I had my license endorsed issue 28 was the most recent license. I had this license for 2 years after getting my HGV entitlement. They sent me license issue 29 after I moved, and that was returned by them, endorsed. They are asking me to return my most recent license (which is already endorsed) or if I have lost it, apply for a new one and pay the appropriate fee.
I can understand why they do this. I'm sure alot of people would surrender an older license to get endorsed then drive with a clean one etc.
Another point quickly. The court told me I was caught speeding on the 9th April (which is correct). I didn't ask for evidence as I knew I was guilty. But the date of offence is listed on my license as 02/09/2007, two months earlier. Should I tell the DVLA that or leave it. In theory it will be off my license two months earlier.
Thanks for any one that can help or offer an explanation.
Re: I only have one license, what are they on about?
Well I sent my license off to the DVLA with a covering letter.
This is the problem now. And please, I really would appreciate some advice, or an opinion from someone who can help me.
I got caught speeding on 09/04/2007. I had the letter come through, and I sent my license back to the central ticket office with the fine. My license came back but the ticket office has wrote the date of the offence as 09/02/2007.
The DVLA wrote to me to say that I didn't give the ticket office my most recent license. I did, but because they wrote the date wrong, the DVLA think my license hasn't been endorsed. I sent the DVLA my license with a letter saying this is the only license I have.
The DVLA have entered the 09/04/2007 offence on my license, but left the 09/02/2007 on there too. Now my license reads I have 6 penalty points, when in fact I only have 3.
This is a right old mess. I have the central ticket office number and I will call them on Monday, however I would like to know where i stand.
I only have one license, what are they on about?
