Hi. Looking for some advice please.

 

I purchased a 2nd hand car on 14th March 2017. Once the purchase has been sorted I paid 6 mths Road Tax before I driving the vehicle.

 

At the end of May I learned that in fact despite paying the garage the road tax the vehicle was actually not taxed.

 

Obviously I immediately taxed the vehicle before driving it.

 

I have phoned the garage to ask for a refund (have receipts​) of the road tax I paid them.

 

I wonder if there is any other options available?

 

I'm concerned that I've been driving a car with no road tax which apart from invalidating my insurance had I been involved in an accident, I could have been pulled by police too with serious consequences.

Taxing a car on line you should have received email notification from DVLA that the Garage completed for you...using your details?

Garage accepts they didn't do it. I just don't find it acceptable that's what they have done. Although haven't received it yet they SAY they will refund the £.

Just an aside, not having VEL on a vehicle does NOT invalidate insurance thumbup.gif

 

I've seen this mentioned a few times on here (not just this thread) and it's simply not true.

Please note that my posts are my opinion only and should not be taken as any kind of legal advice.
In fact, they're probably just waffling and can be quite safely and completely ignored as you wish.
