My photo was due to expire last year, two months before the expiry I passed my LGV test and asked if I could update the photo early as they would be sending a new card anyway.
‘Yes, but you still have to pay the fee’!!!
No thanks then, I’ll let you sent me a brand new photocard, and then send me a reminder, and then I’ll grudgingly send you the cash with a new photo! And thats what happened…if I have to pay, I’m not going to waive two months of my license!
In the last five years, I’ve think I’ve had seven new cards, one change of address, 2 provisional categories added, three categories added, and the photo update 🙂
