Default Re: Photo licence renewal - send in the old one?

Have sent mine back for change of address a few years ago, also just sent mine back for the photo renewal.
Went to the post office, they sorted it and it arived withing a couple of days, I did copy it both times to be on the safe side.

I noticed on the form that if you have a passport <5 years old then you can do it online...mine wasn't but I'm assuming that they use that photo and you don't need to send in your old licence just destroy iy (as you can do with passports...when the wife 'lost/didn't look properly' hers). It begs the question though, if you can use a 5 yr old passport photo, why is the photocard 10 years and not 15? I assume that the photocard will still be valid for 10 years once you get it?

They tell you to cut it in two & send the bits in.

Applied for mine online middat Monday & got it back this morning - with all categories!
Used the 'passport' method, which was painless.
S'pose I'd better send old one ( 35 yrs) back now.

My plan too, send them the old one when I get the correct new one.

Used the passport method too, so hopefully this will go well. I'll report back when I get post.

New one arrived today, all entitlements intact. A good service to be fair.

Didn't know you were 70 yet, Mike - you've worn well.
But . . those cakes'll be the death of you!
