hi new here, just received my license after a drink drive ban it still 5 weeks till i can drive:) but i went to the DVLA website to check my license details and it says my details are unknown and in fact as changed the number just wonder if this is normal as in my new license there is a start date shall i contact DVLA?
 
When you are disqualified for more than 56 days (as will be the case for a drink driving conviction) your licence will automatically be revoked. This does not mean you have to re-sit your test but it does mean that you need to re-apply for your licence before you can drive again. You should visit the DVLA website for guidance about how to do this. The DVLA would usually send you a D27 form by post. As you have not received this you will need to complete a D1 and send that by post. For the sake of completeness you should contact the DVLA to check if they have sent a D27 form to you or if they intend to do so.
