Have used their Tax online system 3 times now. Worked perfectly each time and tax disc recd in post 48 hours later.

Looks good but unfortunately it doesn't work if you need to renew your photo (after 10 years).

That would have been a nice feature since I live abroad and posting things back and forth takes weeks!

I use it months ago 06\08 to replace my old paper licence to the new photo licence. I had put it off when I saw the paperwork and did not understand half of it.

On line was easy they even took my photo off my passport from whoever holds the details and I received it in 3 days.

Cool! You don't have to send your passport away then??

Nope they somehow are able to get your photo from the passport office and use it.
A bit of a worry they are able to do this but it sure makes it easy.
