G Dog 7 Posted July 22, 2020 I was trying to get through to these people for a licence check code the other week. Nearly 3 hours pre-recorded nonsense and the line went dead. I felt driving down there to give them a large chunk of my mind ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Halfpenny 114 Posted July 22, 2020 1 hour ago, It's me said: from 1 till 2 mon to friday gis a job To be fair its not like they work 9-5 with an hour for lunch. Its 8-1pm and 2-7pm so they open 10 hours a day. I guess there is basically two 'shifts' of staff. We always moan about DVLA but overall I find them OK. I have had a lot more problems with other organisations. The worst ever was Npower, absolutely shocking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In this case, the gentleman had his middle name on his driving licence and no middle name on his passport. Hence, you have a digital mis-match and you will not get a check code. You will then require to call the DVLA for said code. This will also happen if there is a discrepancy with a National Insurance number. This documentation is digitally cross checked all at once to avoid fraud. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JDM1983 28 Posted July 24, 2020 Can’t say I’m surprised, even the website gets the evening off to chill out - sold, transferred or bought a vehicle website closed every day from 7pm to 7am - what possible good reason could there be for that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know but I assume i's so if they need to do any maintenance they can do it whenever they like at their leisure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
