Duckandswing Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 When I did my licence in 2015 with Gwent police, it took just 14 days from start to finish. My licence is full at the minute so I’m sending it back in for a new one this weekend. I hope it doesn’t take too long to come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lloyd90 Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 It’s no good other people telling you how fast their forces are... ... when I first applied for SGC with South Wales it was atleast 6 months and FAC was over 9! Ive had renewals that we’re much quicker and at times variations that were less than a week. Regardless there isnt much you can do a bit it!

My first application for a FAC back in 1983 took a total of 6 days with South Wales police (Bridgend) I’ve always had good service with them during the many years of renewals and variations. They are not so quick now which is mainly due to severe cutbacks in man power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daisyrob1 Posted February 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2018 Ye cutbacks seems to be a big factor the phone lines are only open for 2 hours on a Tuesday and Thursday,plus the renewals are taking priority Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
