Is that an actual fact that you know?
VWE are currently having an issue with DVLA which they hope to resolve shortly.

I wont be uprating until October at the earliest and Dee is bunging me an email when ready to rock and roll which I will update on here (but I only read emails every few days on holiday)

I've just completed the up plate with SvTech on a Ford Transit chassis. I already had Dunlop rear suspension and Falken 121/119R tyres fitted. Now up plated to 4,100kg overall from 3,500kg. 2,430kg on the rear and 1,850 on the front, but with a 4,100kg overall limit.
Absolutely more than what I require, but it puts a stop to DVSA shenanigans (adding on weight for passengers not present etc, etc, see previous posts) if pulled over for a weight check.

In my case, DVLA took about 2-3 weeks to process the paperwork and to issue a new V5C. The tax refund came in yesterday.
