Car tax issues!

I've recently moved house and decided to renew my car tax online.
I realised that the tax disc would be sent to my old address but I had Royal Mail re-direction set up and running. With the idea that the tax disc would be re-directed to my new address, I then sent off my registration docs in the post.
Here's where the problems started! My car tax has not arrived and I've even checked my old address for post, but no luck.
How on Earth can I tax my car now???
I contacted the DVLA and they said it could take 6 weeks for reg docs to arrive!

Has the money gone out of your bank for the tax. If so, your car is taxed but you just haven't got the disc.
Ask the dVLA for clarificationmake the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
and we will never, ever return.0
