August 7, 201411 yr I've been quiet recently due to work but still have the scooby which (for me) is good news. Today I passed my A test and kept license as I need it for Hire car next week whats the process when I get back for getting this glorious category added to my license. Im a bit nervous about sending off the proof of me passing the test to never see it again and only gamble on it coming back with an A on the back. help pls!!
August 8, 201411 yr Hi mate, congrats on passing your bike test. I did mine 2 years ago, best thing I ever did Send your licence and proof of passing to dvla, you'll get them both back and you'll have A added to your licence. Think I got mine back two weeks after sending them.
August 8, 201411 yr Author Cheers! do i need to send original or can i send a photocopy of my pass certificate
August 8, 201411 yr You'll need to send the original. Check this link. http://www.nidirect.gov.uk/claiming-a-driving-test-pass
August 8, 201411 yr I'm sure the instructor sorted mine. Check this link https://www.gov.uk/motorcycle-practical-test/your-test-result
August 8, 201411 yr Author Haha not looking forward to sending it off nervous It's not going to come back with all 3 on it
August 8, 201411 yr Author Bus, but I wouldn't be given that while I'm in would just end up me having to do all the night out runs in the mini buses and coaches
August 8, 201411 yr Whens your due to expire ? Soon may as well tick the renew box and pay your twenty quid. Saves a job for later
August 8, 201411 yr i understand your fear as they made 3 times mistakes by taking one of the letters (class) of my licence when i needed it to send to Swansea. this was needed when i got my ADR licence and needed to exchange my Dutch licence into a UK licence years back. first i lost my A after sending it back i lost my BE and A was back, and finally after sending it back for the 3rd time they still took BE off as there wasn't space enough on the plastic card to put all my licence classes on it! after talking with the Supervisor they agreed to make a notice in there system incase the Police was calling in verifying if i had indeed BE. the logic behind their decision to take BE of was that i do have CE / DE and if you do have CE / DE you diffidently do have BE anyway i still have a scan of my original Dutch licence with all the letters (AM/A/B1/B/BE/C1/C/D1/D/CE1/CE/D1E/DE/f/k/p/q classes) on it B) so make sure you make copies / scans for the originals as you will need to send only the originals to the DVLA clowns @ Swansea
August 8, 201411 yr Author Oh no haha no am, wouldn't worry about the B+E bits you're def covered with C+E
August 31, 201411 yr I'm in a similar situation. I have grandfathered C+E rights for wagon and drag; I'm also qualified for BE and C1E by the same rules - but if I lose or give up my Class C, then I lose the right to haul a full sized (7500kg) trailer with a C1, but can only haul 750kg. What it does to my BE I'm not sure - will it mean I can no longer tow my caravan? As usual, a bunch of semi-ignorant bureaucrats have done a half-assed job of rewriting a set of rules that were perfectly all right as they were... Don't you just love government?
September 1, 201411 yr yep, yep, they are. i asked the DVLA supervisor who at DVLA designed the foto card while not fit for purpose, well no answer of course
