    Thanks.
    Must admit, I thought they'd bin my email as being too forthright :D
  • Hi ALL new boy to  MSE, fzbob welcome to the club.  4 days ago I to filled in my application for my 70+ licence on what I thought
    was DVLA web site 2 days later I was charged £79 by our friends! "Licence safe .co.uk"  I am in the proses of trying to get a refund.
    I have not contacted DVLA but I am confident that others have. the application form send to us dose remind us to make sure we use the official GOV.UK website, that I did and still got charged.  by now DVAL should have made their web site more secure bye having a OFFICIAL DVAL WEB SITE that applicants can trust to open.

    They do.

    It's part of gov.uk - how much more "official" do you need?

    The problem is that you followed an ad for a commercial operator, instead of actually going to DVLA's website.
