Yes, it was that time of year again for me, my tax needed renewing. a month after Christmas as well that was all I needed.

I must say though that the DVLA have got onto a good idea here, renewing online.....YES, no more standing in the dreaded post office queue for an hour at the same time as everyone else getting their tax.

So how does it work, well first wait for your reminder to pop thrrough the post which is usually 14 days before renewal and on the right hand side of the leeter in big bold black writting is "Relicense or SORN online or by phone and a 16 digit refernce number which must be quoted. Of course you can still go to the local post office if you wish and details are on the form telling you what to do.

The website itself was very easy to navigate : www.direct.gov.uk/taxdisc takes you straight to where you need to be.
You enter the reference number in and hayho your details come up.
You confirm your car details are correct then it proceeds to check if you have a valid MOT and insurance which only takes literally a few seconds.
Then the worst part comes....Payment. This can be made by credit or debit card. If paying by credit card they do charge you an additional £2.50 but this is like most companies.
Onto confirm and your given a reference number and told your disc will be with you in 5 working days. Mine actally took only 3 days to come which was great.

This is a method in which I will continue using as it is very quick and easy to do

I've done mine online twice now and would never go back to going to the PO unless I had an internet or computer problem!
