    Well day 14 and no letter, so looks like I’m off the hook.

    often wonder how I’d prove it didn’t arrive in 14 days if it comes through next week though. Feels like post is a bit hit and miss atm

    I've just re-read the whole of this thread.

    Five people so far have suggested posting on Pepipoo.
    Did you do that?

    As long as your V5C has the right address on it?  Many people overlook updating the logbook address when they move.

    Not having the V5C log book up to date with the correct address etc can leave you with  a very, very, very nasty set of surprises
