I have done some googling, and it seems that most Halfords do give these out to forces peeps. We need some bits from there and my hubby is RAF AMM so will let you know how we get on tomorrow! Hope this info is useful for someone, I know its been mentioned on the motoring board before, but I dont think its been on the forces one. xx

From what ive seen on the net some stores just take your ID card as proof and dont bother asking about your trade, and some want to see eng/ mech certs. Will take NVQ certs just in case. xx

i went in to Halford's and asked for a trade card. They accepted my forces ID card as proof, no questions.

Rainbow_Butterfly

Yep we managed fine with just ID card too. xx

Rainbow_Butterfly

As far as I know, and from the looks of their website yes. xx

i got mine using my id. you save an absolute fortune on halfords own brand car parts. up to 50% off some stuff.

the card can be used in any halfords.

not on bike stuff or car polish though.

tools and parts - yes

My husband also has got one , although his id card on it's on was not enough. he needed his NVQ certificates etc that stated he was a qualified technician
