Did you know you can now renew your tax disc online or by telephone? Well, you can. I received my notice from DVLA earlier this week stating that my car tax was due. With reminder came a helpful little leaflet telling me that I didn't need to root around (well, not that I have to root since everything is nicely filed) to find my insurance certificate, MOT certificate and then find a Post Office. Instead I could simply ring a number (or go online), enter my reference and then my credit card details and all would be done. I was slightly puzzled as to how I would then print out my tax disk, bearing in mind I don't think my printer can cope with perforating circles. It seems my fear was misplaced: they will send my tax disc within 5 working days. So there we are. Just one easy phone call, a few details, a few number punches and all done. Fantastic. At the same time, I don't suppose this does much for supporting the local Post Office. I was actually in Kent with my parents this morning and so had planned to go to our local Post Office. Instead, I rang the DVLA from the comfort of my bed!
