DVLA tax reminder

It really doesn't matter. Being liable for your vehicle tax is not dependent on them sending you a letter. For as long as your car is on the road you are liable for the tax. No exceptions.glentoran99 wrote: »Yes because that's the only way they can provide evidence...0 -
I assume it is beyond possibility to set up a paper or electronic reminder? With my memory these days I might well miss some of these things if I didn't get my calendar to remind me.0

That's terrible -how on earth does one budget for payments like that?
I couldn't - my account could well land up overdrawn.
All my DDs work well to within a day or so of the expected date - so i would be in a right pickle with unexpected payments.
Its only £57, so it isn't a hardship when its a surprise.0 -
I never rely on reminders for tax or insurance (car and home), I write them on a calender at home.
May want to check when your mot is due.0 -
