DVLA again
Received a letter from DVLA Medical Team that I have a sight test within 3 weeks of the date of the letter..Problem is the letter was dated 4 weeks before I received it. Wrote back to the sender and heard nothing more. Complained and no response. I know of one other case where this has happened but I suspect there are more. Are there?

Did you actually go for the sight test?

Similar, my partner had 3 days to get a test according to a letter dated a month before receipt, postmarked 3 days days before delivery.
Was just able to comply (and pass).

Just get the eye test and let the optician send the results - hopefully positive - back to DVLA. It's a slow process - DVLA was contacted by my consultant and it was six months before DVLA gave me the all clear.
Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill0 -
Conversely, following my partner's test, letter from DVLA inside 10 days.
Guess it's dependant on the nature of the notifiable condition.

Sounds like a Royal Mail issue, not DVLA.
But I assume your immediate reaction was to have that eyetest as soon as possible…0 -
No as the Specsavers window had closed

So how long now since the letter was dated?
Are you still driving…?0 -
No as the DVLA letter was specific as when I had to take the test, One of my fellow sufferers found that a batch of Specsaver appointment letters was lost, when found weeks later the date was not updated. So DVLA attached these letters to a covering letter without seeing the date was wrong. No thought given to the grief this would give the driver. As it is my application for renewal has stopped after a 6 monmth wait.

Not surprised. I applied for a renewal 6 months ago and still waiting for a sight yest.

For the sake of those of us having to share the roads with you, please do NOT continue to drive until your eyesight has been tested.
