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.

Their email was quite clear with the three steps outlined(which i posted)....it's the usual from the NTA,we're in a pandemic and the only thing they can do is make things difficult when it didn't need to be,removing the roof sign and unlinking from the portal should have been enough,that's all the insurers required but the NTA...instead of looking further than their noses decided to do something instead of doing nothing in this particular instance.

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?

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.

Havin a laugh?
Drivers on here saying they're not removing the discs and sending them and the licence cert to Galway as requested.

This is puzzling, it seems they are having afterthoughts.

I have to say I've never placed any value in the taxi licence cert.Once I get it after my suitability I've never used it again.It's all nonsense.

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 ?
You broke the link because you were off the road. Don’t think they’ll be that nosey. But you can unlink online or by text.

you'd have every right to tell them to fuck off and mind their own business

I agree.....they've probably realised all the work involved(at no cost to the licence holder apart from maybe having to drive to the nearest centre) and that maybe some drivers will return to the streets before their centres open.....the process they have in place..whatever that is... might fill that void.

How did you tax your car before we could do it online with a pin number?

I probably put it in with the application but it's not useful for anything else.Goes into the glovebox and that's it.I think mine is still in the glove box since my last suitability test but haven't needed it so it could be anywhere.

When your insurance is cancelled it's just another piece of paper for the green bin.I wouldn't be framing it or anything..

If you work with a trad despatcher they will need a copy of it. If I remember correctly a photo of the window stickers will do FN.

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 .
I ask social welfare what the rules are around working while on the covid 19 payment. She said your not allowed work on the covid 19 payment but you are allowed work while claiming the job seekers allowance.

I think Rats interpretation of "business being diminished to such an extent that you would accept full time employment elsewhere" is flawed, everybody in receipt of job seekers allowance must be "available for work", this doesn't mean they can be fully employed but willing to go somewhere else if offered, it simply doesn't make sense that a self employed person can claim the payment just because their business is down a bit
