Just received my shiny new class 2 licence back through the post and I only passed my test on the 6th Dec 
- hats off to the DVLA & Royal Mail 
First class 1 lesson this coming week - can`t wait 
Will keep you posted 
come on own up, how many people have you showed it to 
I never thought I’d see the day when the DVLA actually did something impressive…
Saying that, I got my provisional licence through in 4 days!! I thought it must have been a one off, but obviously not
Even though they are capable of great service, I doubt I will see my new licence this side of Crimbo 
Actually, I have always found the DVLA to be very efficient when it comes to processing licenses.
Got to give them their due…they aren’t totally useless at everything!..most of the time.

when I passed the examiner sent my licence off given that it was a friday afternoon and I had my nice shiny new one on the following wednesday now thats service
I got my driving licence back 9 days after passing my Cat. H test - the longest it’s ever taken. This is probably due to the fact that it was a Home test and not done in the Driving Test Centre so it slowed things down a little bit…but not that much.
They’re quite on-the-ball actually,

If you live near DVLA you can take your licence/paperwork to them and collect the new one the following day.

The Drivers’ Medical Group aren’t known for their swiftness Ang…You just need to ring them a lot and make a thorough nuisance of yourself. Works for me.
