Just cancelled SVA for tomorrow. Just for everyone else's info the guys at Derby said that I will lose £58 off the fee paid and will get a cheque
back for the rest.
They said that I will have to go for IVA now and that I need to do the following:
Download form IVA1
Go to www.transportoffice.gov.uk
Search for IVA M1 manual (which is for passenger cars)
Read paragraph 4 as it details the changes for IVA compared to SVA.
If I had cancelled 3 days prior I would have had a full refund.
Right, back to the garage!
what would have happened if you'd postponed it?
gutted for you
at least you're getting some of the fee refunded
is the iva manual just downloaded for free now? you don'y have to buy it like the SVA one?
how far are you off finishing?
.... but if you had dragged it to the centre, and they would have refused to test it, would you have got a 6 month extension for SVA retest ?
Nope i went to a test in december, engine decided not to play the day before, guy spend some of the test time looking over the car and giving me pointers, but i had to have another test from scratch

At the end of the day mate, you can't take the cash with you, but this way round you will have a safe well built car...

HI, had to cancel my sva on tuesday too, also at Derby on 27th. The tester will be able to have a bit of a rest wont he
.
The guy who called back said I would get a full refund as I let them know in time , but it would probably take 4 or 5 weeks. Ah well can put the
money towards the iva test.
