HDAV Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Mine send a letter 8 weeks prior with renewal form (as long as you havent moved and not told them you get a letter) but if your close to 6 weeeks worth a call as most take this long to process renewals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSS Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 give them a call, best be safe than sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 As above. Don't rely on them reminding you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekers Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 I think the reminder is a regional thing, I can't remember ever having a reminder from mine, perhaps I did and I'm just getting forgetful, but regardless, get yourself stocked up with ammo, be it FAC or SGC and then send them in a good bit in advance of expiry! PS Make sure you retain a photocy as well!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
