Just checked, I am correct they do not send a V11 reminder if pay by DD just a schedule when your payments will be taken.

the fact you did not pay attention to the extra cost when going monthly is not really a cause for a general swipe at "the system"

apart from council tax I cannot think of any other instance that permits payment by instalment where there is no premium built into the instalment price

Water rates, sometimes car or house insurance, court fines, social fund loans,  interest-free credit offers etc

OMG this is the MSE website, do you really not understand what "interest free" means?

Interest-free means that no charges due to interest are applied, but you obviously knew that.

Doesn't mean that another charge (multiple payment supplement?) couldn't be added when instalments are allowed.

The V11 clearly shows monthly DD is more expensive

You dont get a V11 when you set up DD, so if you set up DD 10 years ago, each year its just been autorenewing without them providing the cost or price or any other method of payment.. 

I think they should send a V11 regardless of payment, making customers aware of the new price and options of payment, thats all 

Didn't you receive any communication from DVLA before you set up the DD?
