Horatio Caine Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 I have recently done this and it was relatively quick and easy. Got my new licence yesterday. However - Mrs Caine also has to renew hers and every time we go to the DVLA web site for renewing your licence, when you click `Start Now` - the legend that comes up is `This site cannot be reached`. It can't be my laptop - hers does the same. It can't be a router setting cos I managed to do mine. Just found out my daughter's partner had the same problem and ended up having to go to the Post Office to renew. Anybody any advice to offer? (helpful advice!).

jb102 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 I just got straight in to DVLA and through to renew your licence with no problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inspector Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Is it definitely the DVLA website you are on? There are a lot of copycat sites which look very realistic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samgolden Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Clear your history on the tablet pc you are using it maybe taking you directly to a page loaded before and is caught in the loop redirecting you to the same page error Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had been on the scam site but realised, got off it and did my application on the genuine one no bother. Now it won't let me in. Raging.
