I am slightly confused, has your van already been registered or it is waiting to be registered?

Just had confirmed from DVLA that my refund for £1,580 will arrive in the next 10 days. :bananadance2
You are confused? How about me :) She was registered at the end of July 2020. The dealer gave me two choices. First was register her electronically with DVLA and pay £1850 (then apply for a rebate) so i could take immediate delivery, or register her by post and pay the new fee of £270 but wait another 4 weeks for the paperwork to be processed. Having ordered her last Christmas, I went for option 1!

Ok, you did exactly the same as me, and for the same reason - fed up of waiting. Send me a PM and tomorrow I'll send you what I did in detail to get reclassification and the £1,580 refund. :thumb
