Title: DVLA Post by: Sippo on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 13:52:16 I've looked on the dvla website and I'm a bit confused...
When you need to change the address on your driving license do you need to send a photo, or does the card/paper part suffice? Title: DVLA Post by: DMR on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 13:54:07 With mine I just filled a form in, didn't send anything back to them, and mine came through pretty quickly.
Title: DVLA Post by: Samdy Gray on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 13:55:20 I did it about 6 months ago, had to send both parts because they've both got your address on.

If you already have the photocard bit then just send that and the paper section back with the D1 application form, no photo required. If you only have just the old paper license then you'll need to send a passport type photo as well. Title: DVLA Post by: Sippo on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 14:02:28 Cheers guys.
Title: DVLA Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 14:34:24 God I need to change mine - I gave it over as ID at the sorting office to pick up a parcel and it still had my old address on so they wouldnt accept it
Title: DVLA Post by: Ralphy on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 14:36:49 Shit I haven't changed mine since I moved in January!
Title: DVLA Post by: Sussex on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 14:37:47 Ooops. Nor me.
Title: DVLA Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 14:46:02 I moved 5 years ago!! :shock:
Title: DVLA Post by: Samdy Gray on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 14:46:05 Don't forget to update the V5 for your cars as well...
Title: DVLA Post by: Sippo on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 14:49:31 V5 is the easy part. If you don't fill that out you can't get a tax disc reminder don't forget!!
Title: DVLA Post by: herthab on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 14:52:28 Engrossing, exciting and informative.
Thanks guys! :D Title: DVLA Post by: neville w on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 16:18:14 You can actually be penalised if the address isn't current and they find out.
Although from Bushey's experience looks like they're not too diligent about it. Apparently if your mail will be forwarded its probably ok, if risky. Best not to take the chance though. http://www.dvla.gov.uk/pressoffice/pressreleases/archive2006/20060310_17.aspx Title: DVLA Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 16:23:32 When I sent off my licence for pints I did get a nasty letter back saying please change your address - but I kinda forgot :oops:
Id just like a whole new licence really - the picture is absolutly repulsive - its ten years old now!! Title: DVLA Post by: Bogus Dave on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 16:28:45 Your driving liscence gets you alcohol now hmmm....
Title: DVLA Post by: Spud on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 16:29:31 Whilst we're on the subject of driving....can anyone recommend a decent driving instructor/company in swindon?
Title: DVLA Post by: DMR on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 16:48:54 I'm sure someone on here was touting themself about as a new instructor.
Title: DVLA Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 16:53:35 Kevjoycreed!
Title: DVLA Post by: DMR on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 16:58:33 Sound - Kev, 10% commission sound fair?!
Title: DVLA Post by: Barry Scott on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 18:13:44 I'm extremely bad at this sort of thing and at some point, someone or something will bite my arse.
I haven't lived with parents for years, but everything that can be, is always directed to the old dears house! My car's V5, insurance, drivers licence, mobile phones, banks, you name it it's my Mum's house. I give it out by default and never, unless i have to provide my own address. It just seems far easier, i obviously have household bills coming to my place, but sod changing everything over. I don't know how long i'll live in any one place, so everything, that can be, remains addressed to my Mum's house. Easy peasy. Title: DVLA Post by: Bob's Orange on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 18:16:45 Pants, I never did this after moving to Lux
Can you download and print off the form you need to send off? I just have the photocard liscence. Title: DVLA Post by: axs on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 22:26:21 i've got an old paper license still with a ten year old address on it.
i don't have a car mind. Title: DVLA Post by: Fred Elliot on Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 22:40:27 Driving Licence ??????

Title: DVLA Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, December 3, 2007, 22:52:57 You'll have to ring up and say you lost your license and pay for a replacement
Title: DVLA Post by: Sippo on Monday, December 3, 2007, 22:55:21 Arh ffs. can i really be bothered?!
Title: DVLA Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, December 3, 2007, 22:57:48 I would mate. Dunno about changing address but when I lost my license (actually lost it, not got it taken off me I mean) all I had to do was ring up, quote my license number and they sent me a new one within a few days. Really quick.
Title: DVLA Post by: Sippo on Monday, December 3, 2007, 22:58:59 How much was it though? Think I can order a replacement on the D1.
