GRRRRR so frustrating, IVA passed 1st time, DVLA check 2 wks later and the guy said reg number + tax will be posted in a week, its now 2 weeks later, winter rain has moved in and still no docs through the door!!!

How long can it take! Anyone else had theirs quicker/slower?

Needed a rant, sorry!

Dammit, I was hoping for mine soon, although my week wont be up till Tuesday
If you ring them, you get to speak to someone if it's been more than 10 working days, I.e 2 weeks

That's quick you should count yourself luckly..

One the same note do follow them up you could end in the difficult pile never to be uncovered I kid you not.. They only reason my doc's came through was when I started to complain..

If anyone is browsing this thread, we called DVLA today and apparently we should have had our docs by now (been 11 working days, can't ring up before then), so they contact our local office (Chelmsford) and they have to call us back within 2 hrs. If not, we call again and they escalate and Chelmsford have to call back in half hour this time. So by 10am tomorrow we should have an answer. So I guess anyone who is waiting for DVLA stuff, at 10 working days ring them up and complain!!
