Who is ace?Hi ace there isn't any,it got lost in the post,or at the dvla.
Hi I call everybody ace.am only guessing he has been banned or has had the licence revoked for whatever reason,he has not stated.i never handed mine to the court or returned it to the dvla and nobody asked why.Who is ace?
The ramifications of not returning your licence are not as straightforward as bob says. Legally the licence is not your property (not sure if technically property of the DVLA??), if you use it when it has been revoked for any reason is a criminal offence. Obviously if you use it to collect post from the sorting office etc., this would never cause an issue. However if you attempt to use the licence for proof of ability to drive, you are committing fraud and the consequences are quite frightening.
I really think you should be fine.It would obviously not be used for proof of my ability to drive....its just for proof of identity........as i have a car to sell...and they require photographic proof im who i say i am...! ...banned for 18 months, incidently....plus as stated..its my only photographic proof of my ID
You've already made your mind up so good luck! You think because you paid for the licence that you own it? LOL If you own it, why have the DVLA asked for it back? They won't refund you, they have revoked it (they are confiscating it as it is no longer a valid document)Thanks for the replies,guys...im still undecided what to do, as i have two cars and need to sell at least one of them, and i need photo id to do that... as for not owning my licence...I disagree...i paid for the photograph, I paid for that bit of plastic...i paid for that postage...and as long as im not using it to drive....im not commiting fraud...DVLA only own my right to drive....not my identity
