Hi all,
Have read this thread with interest, as i find myself in the same position. Details below:
Banned: 15th March 2019
Ban: 20 months
End Date: 14th November 2020
Course: Yes
New End Date: June 14th 2020
I was a bit unsure on the process or re-applying especially being a HRO, but after completing the course i was advised, they would inform the court of the successful completion, who would in turn inform the DVLA, then they would contact me by letter with details of the medical / application.
As of today, i have obviously found out; a) Can't speak to anyone at the DVLA b) they aren't accepting any applications for non-key workers c) no one to talk to at my local magistrate courts d) i was majorly behind the curve anyway by the sounds of peoples experiences of the medical and application taking 3/4 months+ anyway.
Whilst checking my licence online .Gov / DVLA service, it still shows as my end date being the 14th November 2020, so i don't think i have any hope of things resolving themselves anytime soon.
Unprecedented times, and just have to suck it up. I am assuming, i will just have to aim for the official end date of November this year and forget about the discount, by then potentially the DVLA will be back to some form of normal, but with the medical and forms i may be looking at 2021. Which is gutting, but in the grand scheme of things nothing.
Would like to keep any eye on here to hear your stories & updates, and i hope every one stays fit and healthy.
Thanks
