No need for C1 medical for 12 months

I suggest you go straight to the DVLA online formal complaints procedure. Several Funsters have found they get a quick response from this system, probably because it will be logged as a formal Government complaint. Don’t bother with letters, emails and phone calls.

Tried that a week back, not even had the decency to respond to that, apart from automated email with a reference number.

Earlier in the year I got a proper response a couple days after receiving the automated response and reference number. New documents arrived a few days after this (V5C rather than C1 application).

Thanks, can only hope, but won't be holding my breath,

I know doctors will charge different amounts for full Medicals but what sort of price have you been charged to have your own doctor?
I will try to phone my doc tomorrow (if I can get through) to ask but look forward to hearing from you.
I will be 70 at the beginning of April and will hopefully be applying to keep my C1 soon.
thanks

I paid £80 which did not include the sight test. As my eye exam was due anyway they did the form for free.

I am not 70 but have underlying medical conditions. The DVLA really messed up my entitlement and my license says I have B, C1+E, C+E and full motorbike license plus the usual road roller etc etc. No +E for a car though! As I am covered for the B and the C1 (which I am entitled to) I wasn't going to rock the boat having waited over a year for the go ahead.
