DVLA - Licence query
 
I had to renew my photocard in Jan - duly took all photo copies and checked for my bike entitlement on its return no problems thre photocopies out.
Now I find that my bike entitlement start from 20/50/07 not 05 when i passed my test.
Becuase i was on a restricted licence they took my entitlement from my when my restriction came off.
I've spoken to DVLA and they won't change it but surely that's not right
I tell plods that I've been riding for 5years but licence says otherwise
Does that mean I'm going to have to carry my test cert around as well??
I'm well:smt013 but:confused:.com too

AAARGH!

No the entitlement is right, whilst you were restricted your entitlement was A2 - after 2 years, your entitlement changes to A so you have only held the A entitlement since 07.... make sense???

It's just how the DVLA works. If any plod disbelieved you then we have access to the DVLA Database which details when you passed tests CBT, etc etc etc so it will show that you held a retricted licence for two years.

The DVLA are right on this one. It's just because of the change of entitlement.

which month is month 50?! :p;)

so it was 20/05/05 but now is 20/05/07?!

Does it say anywhere about having an A2 licence?

I didn't know that. But then why would I? There was no such thing as a restricted licence when I did my test a million years ago. :lol:

Lily, it won't show the A2 on her photocard, it might on the counterpart, not sure. The photocard only shows what entitlements you currently hold and as she no longer holds A2 there is no need for it to be shown.

That's the same as LGV as well. I used to have class 3 on my licence until I passed class 1. Now it just shows class 1 entitlement.
