They've Got My Money!

[YellaBelly]

Rang VOSA this morning after they left a message yesterday. Made my payment and was a bit miffed, when I said I assume all was well with the form the guy said he didn't know as they don't process it until the money is received! So there was me thinking the next step was the letter from Bristol Test Center but I've now got to wait hoping I don't get a phone call from VOSA saying there is a problem with the application

This is worse than having teeth pulled!

The joys of the Civil Service, don't forget to remind them that we pay their wages.  I'm sure that will help!

sounds about the norm, just hope the person dealing with it doesn't go on holiday or worse go sick with all the stess they incure during their working lives
I think there was a survey done comparing private to public sickness at work  - think it turned out 3 times as much in the public sector - might have something to do with the full pay that goes with it
I wish you well with the application and hope it all goes to plan
see you on the road soon

Hi Pete,

Rang them up yesterday (Friday) and they said "it's still with technical, should be seen in a couple of days" 

Starting to get P'd off now! They took the cash on 18th May and yet they're still working through a backlog! Trouble is, if I get stroppy then they'll probably take even longer, just have to bite my lip I guess

Just keep pestering them but in a nice pleasant way with a smile on your face, that way they will get annoyed by you chasing but not get knarked off that they mess you around. worked for me

( try Mark (dot) Vickers (at) vosa.gov.uk )
