How are Devon & Cornwall doing on renewals?
Put in my renewal online this week and curious how they are performing.
 
I've just renewed mine with them, and I have to say they were outstanding. 3 weeks and absolutely no nonsense at all, couldn't have beem more helpful and competent.
The GP, on the other hand, a complete, multi-layered shambles.
A monumental improvement from the previous time. The online system is obviously a much better way to do it.
Although they said they use a different system now involving using their brains and triage, with obviously simple cases dealt with quickly and more complex or dodgier prospects given considerably more scrutiny.

That's good to hear 👍🏻
 
I got my gp report and had my renewal application in within a couple of weeks of my renewal letter coming through. From memory that was Nov.
Got an automatic 8 week extension as my cert ran out on the 10th Feb.
Ive had a visit and inspection. Extremely thorough. Phoned my referees and all permissions.
Now I'm waiting.
I was impressed with the thoroughness. But it's taking a while.
 
Looking at the stats just out, if I were about to renew I would make sure you get legal insurance in place now. D&C are on knee jerk reaction with refusals and revocations at very high level.
 
Renewal due mid February - highlighted the commercial need for the ticket to be in place by renewal date and was delighted to have my documents in my hand a MONTH before due date. Congratulations DCC - online application had my referees contacted the day after receipt at Middlemoor. Feels like a return to the good old days when I could march in with a packet of chocolate Hob-nobs and leave with four visitors permits an hour later! :) Colour me impressed!
 
New certificate arrived today. With extra slots for 6.5 Grendel and 7mm PRC. Well within the automatic extension period.
Im pleased. I thought they were thorough and fair.
Now the mulling over of what to get will really make my head hurt.
