After up-plating my campervan (with the excellent help of Van Weight Engineering), I received an amended V5C with incorrect entries in Section J "Vehicle category" (Empty, should have been M1) and Section E1 "Max permissible mass" (recorded as 6500 kg, should have been 4500 kg).
I sent an email to DVLA pointing out these errors and requesting an amended V5C in October 2021. Other than an automated email acknowledging my email, nothing was heard for 5 months. Not an unusual experience when dealing with the DVLA, as evidenced extensively on this forum.
So on 14 March this year I submitted a complaint using the DVLA's online Complaints Procedure: https://www.gov.uk/government/organ...e-licensing-agency/about/complaints-procedure.
After two weeks I received this letter by email and a few days later a corrected V5C. If you've been having problems with the DVLA it's worth giving this Complaints Procedure a shot.
