hairnet Posted September 22, 2021 Author Share Posted September 22, 2021 No v5 Without opening it I could tell it was a letter telling me something else ( had dealings with them previously over other things so know when it's a letter of disappointment They have rejected the kiwi v5 which is ridiculous as it's the one parky sent me They will get another copy printed on better paper and be told that's how they are from kiwi (truth) Ho hum tobyd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
busmansholiday Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Tell the twats to read AS and the thread about it and you'll accept their grovelling apology and a V5 plus £50 compensation for their incompetence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hairnet Posted September 22, 2021 Author Share Posted September 22, 2021 its a bit insane as they have the bill of sale from parky to me the bill from turners paying for it that and the kiwi v5 have all vin/id details - its not like they dont have them/know what to do with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave_Q Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 PS I hope as they are now "dealing with it" when you write back you are still at the front of the queue and not the back? Waiting another 6-7 weeks is not the one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting another 6-7 weeks is not the one. if un-scrapping Invacars on the DVLA are anything to go by the moment things go off course so to speak they generally open a case and you will be assigned a person, then you will always be at the front of the queue as you will be assigned to that one person handling your case so will gain a direct line to that person and they will generally respond within a few days there will be a reference string for example you include in any sort correspondence and if you notice that reference string contains the name of whoever is handling your case Dave_Q 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
