Hi all
Many moons ago I acquired my provisional license, now as things happen I lost the two bits of paper which come with it. And moved house. I now wish to do my test, of course I need to update my license, but with these pieces of paper missing it affects me completing the full driving test correct?
How would I go about sorting this and how much will it likely cost me.

I would imagine if you contact the DVLA, you could get them replaced for around a tenner. Worth ringing and asking, but be aware you'll get through to a lot of people that will give you different answers.

I've had the run around before, hence asking online, I so far have been told to just re-apply for another license. Or I have to pay over £50 for my license to be re-newed.

If you have a mining helmet with attached lamp, you coul try their website. I would hardly recommend it though.

Is your licence a photocard one? If so you'll have to call the DVLA and get them to issue you with a replacement. You definitely can't do your test without both the photocard and the paper counterpart. You can book the test but the examiner will refuse to take you out.

I may be wrong but I thought a provisional lisence was only valid for two years???

The theory pass certificate is valid for only two years but the licence isn't.
