Will do, but I'll ask the DPRC office again first.
 
Thanks,

OK because this relates to E mail I shall be able to answer it being
still technology as such. Yes, I get an e mail reminder when my rail
card is due for renewal.
 
Take it up with david sindell at ATOC if you have a problem with the
DPRC office.

        My wallet didn't come with Braille on it.
         
        By the way, does anyone get correspondence from DPRC, such as
reminders of renewal due dates in alternative formats? I've never got
them to agree to supply anything but print.

        Yeah! why not place the railcard in the wallet supplied, you
know the one, the one that came with braille on it!

                Hello all,
                 
                Last year, I renewed my disabled person's railcard.
Because they are the same size as the train tickets, I asked for a copy
with a Braille label, saying "Railcard".  I got one. Then they said that
the cards they'd been sending out had a fault which meant that before
the end of the period for which the card was valid, the print on it
would have faded to illegibility. So they kindly sent a replacement
card, but without the originally requested Braille label.  When I rang
to request that they replace like with like, they said
"unfortunately..." I've had to put my own braille label on the card, but
needed sighted help to make sure I didn't overwrite any crucial printed
information.
                 
                Has anybody had a similar experience or a more
satisfactory outcome?
                 
                Regards,
                Clive
