I passed my full test a couple of weeks ago and have been lurking on here, absorbing some knowledge and with one eye on the classifieds......

Imagine my surprise when I double checked my newly returned license to find that some of my offences have dissappeared (SP30, SP60 and an IN10 - 2002,2003 and 2004 respectively) to be replaced by an TT99.

As I've decalred my IN10 ever since I got it (got caught 45 mins after buying a car without insurance - comletely own fault, total kn*b) I didn't think too much of it - did some insurance quotes and found out that it's all doubled because of this! Aaarrrggghhhhh!

What I don't understand is - is that the day of the court case (I got 7 days ban and 100 quid btw) The court took my license and endorsed it with IN10 = £100, 0 Points.

The DVLA says I was banned under totting up, if that was correct, why didn't the court endorse it with TT99 from day one.

For the last 4 years I've been driving around with a license endorsed with IN10 - declaring that to the insurers - and now the DVLA says "we've always had it down as a TT99".

I wouldn't be bothered, but I've spoke to my existing insurers and now my car premiums are going up - and the nice 749 I had my eye on has just doubled to insure.....

Anybody else had anything like this?

Gaaarrgggghhh!

Anyhoo - Howdy all!
