Tamper Proof Disks

[dalymount]

I spoke to my broker last night  on the phone what he told me was, while he is aware that the NTA want drivers to return the discs, there is absolutely no circumstances in which either he, (the broker) OR  the insurance company would reveal details of who sought to reduce cover to the NTA, or anybody else. He said in conjunction with the insurance company, the only requirement they have is, that you remove the roof sign, and break the link

The only possible issue would arise if you were involved in an incident, then insurance companies can get fiddly about the intricacies, however I'm sure that provided you weren't trading you would be in the clear. Couldn't give a toss about what the NTA want us to do in this instance

[dalymount]

Yes , I'm inclined to agree with that, I'd say that is also what the rat thinks

[dalymount]

I'm just wondering though, when you go to re establish the link, will they not ask why did you break the link in the first place ?

I hope for the sake of those that  sent back their stickers that the NTA are efficient in replacing them when the time comes, history suggests they may not be.

The woman from the NTA that I talked to yeserday, said I think the cork and sligo test centres are open. then she checked and said they werent and a compliance officer would put the discs back on, i asked her where? she said she didnt know. she didnt fill me with confidence to be honest.

Do any of you ever think about thinking .You have been told that the Covid money wont last for ever or it might, you have been told you need to apply for jobseekers or you might not .Send back the fucking discs you wont be missing much if you are delayed by a day or two when you decide to go back to work but you could be pushed to the back of the que if we need to claim jobseekers if you still hold an active taxi licence .Thats the choice prepare to fail just in case you fail then you wont fail when you go looking for the Failure money .

Regardless of whether you sent the discs back or not(i did)....and you decide to lift the suspension will they(with their process in place?)not automatically schedule an appointment to have new discs fitted with the assumption that they were removed in the first place as per their instruction in their email?

Keep it simple stupit I suppose .I would think you reactivate you get an appointment to go to your local SGS test center where probably a fella from the reg or the crowd who run the center will refit them or they could post them out registered post and you refit them yourself .Some of you make it more complicated than it needs to be .

The woman told me not to send mine back yet, to email the NTA and see what they say. it all depends who answers the phone when you ring them, they all have different versions of the rules it seems.

Thanks John....but it's my favourite organisation the NTA we're talking about....they kept it far from simple!!

you're having a laugh, they'll send you an email telling not to operate without the stickers under any circumstance and give you a number to ring to organise an appointment.
