I sent a BMW logbook to the DVLA , together with another change on another bike , they made the change on the other bike in about 6 weeks but NOTHING for the BMW. I contacted them and they said they never received it. Although I pointed out the BMW book was sent in the same envelope as the matter they had dealt with they continued to assert they had never received the BMW logbook, and I should send them £20 for them to issue a new BMW logbook. I told them I would see them in hell before I paid for something they had lost, and that I would contact my MP the press and anyone else I could think of. There was quite a lot more agro for a while, and then as I was cycling through Reading on holiday (Don't ask why we were holidaying in Reading!) my mobile rang, and when I answered it a girl enquired what colour I would like on my replacement logbook (No apology no admission they had the logbook all along etc) I told them the THREE colours of the bike only to be told they will only put TWO colours on the log. I said put whatever you like, and they sent me my ORIGINAL log book back a few weeks later.
Like my local council, the HM Revenue and Customs, and one or two other organisations, who have A LEGAL RIGHT to extract money from you, and who HAVE NO COMPETITION. they can, be, and are totally inefficient. but what the heck it keeps someone in employment,
