Hi everyone, just a heads up about renewing road tax if you or your partner are exempt.
This applies if you change vehicles and need to tax your new one, your certificate is only valid for your old car, you have to apply for a new certificate, They dont tell you this and its not mentioned anywhere on the exemption form.
We changed cars 3 weeks ago to accommodate his new chair, my hubby took the certificate and documents to the post office and was told he had to re-apply, we still have no certificate or road tax so my Husband is virtually housebound. I rang them last week and was told another one would be sent out but were still waiting.
So if your changing cars please keep this in mind, they say it takes 5-10 days but dont bank on it. I dont drive and my hubby wont drive as he says his insurance will be invalid without road tax.
