This may not be an option anymore. In October the DVLA failed to confirm or deny whether the Post Office would continue to act as a portal for people to get their tax discs and their driving licences.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The institution of the post office along with the rival bidder and \u2018internet payment service\u2019 Paypoint must now wait until the end on November 2012 to see who has won then ten year contract which is worth six hundred million. Along with the foreclosures of many more local branches of the Post Office only some of the larger branches are staying open which would put the bid possibly in favour of the Paypoint bid.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">George Thomson, General Secretary of the National Federation of Sub Postmasters revealed:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The DVLA contract is essential to the future of our Post Offices. The ongoing delay in announcing a decision on the contract is having a highly unsettling effect on the national Post Office network and on individual sub postmasters\u2019 ability to plan for the future&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He concluded:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Certainly, if the contract isn&#8217;t awarded exclusively to the Post Office it would be catastrophic for the UK&#8217;s Post Offices \u2013 thousands of branches may be forced to close&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many of us are used the convenience of nipping down to our local Post Office branch and renewing our tax for our vehicles.
