	I know the new no tax disc thing is now about two years old, but I've had the same car since it came in so haven't really dealt with it before. My car got written off before Christmas, handed ownership over to insurance company and am still waiting for a tax refund (I'm owed about £130). I waited the six weeks like DVLA says, contacted them today, and they've said I need to wait another 6 weeks while it's investigated! Should I be worried? Anybody else had problems with refunds?
	If at first you don't succeed........ ....Don't try skydiving!

	I declared my car SORN at the end of the summer and got the partial year refund through within 9 or 10 days. I thought they seemed to be a lot more efficient of late with getting logbooks/refunds processed but perhaps I've just been lucky.

	My modern got written off in May last year, and that took a few weeks, although assuming the car was properly signed over to the breakers you should have had the refund by now. If you do a DVLA check on the registration, what info do you get up on the reg? It should tell you when the car was scrapped (I believe if the tax due date is shown as mid month, this means it's been scrapped and thus processed by the DVLA - happy to be corrected if I'm wrong though). At least this will show you if the scrappers have completed the paperwork and sent it back.
