Wales v Rest of UK

Is it my imagination or do those living in Wales get a better service from DVLA. The reason I ask is that over the years whilst living in England I have had a pretty poor service from the DVLA. Last year I moved to Wales and all of a sudden I am getting the service I should have had all along.

Last year on 25 November I sent three documents to DVLA and also notified change of address online. On 28 November I received my updated driving licence and over the following fortnight received two V5c’s dated 1 & 4 December. They did however mislay the other item for three weeks but that had an English address, this was finally completed on 9 February 2016, 76 days later.

Fast forward November 2016 and I sent my Digicard renewal application on 11 November second class and received new card within a week and on 23 November I sent my licence renewal application, again second class, the day after my medical and received my licence today.

Did you send your stuff off to dvla Swansea?? That’s a city in wales and I’m guessing it’s quicker to post from there lol

wales is like the rest of the british isles,and the world in general…they despise the english persay for being english… :slight_smile:
