Car Tax Refund takes too long Should be immediate from the day car sold

Petition Details

There is no period of grace buying a car to taxing it The DVLA obtain immediate monies
Refund from selling a car takes up to 6 weeks.
You only get the refund from the following full month. That means there is an awful lot of surplus cash sitting somewhere.
This practice needs to be stopped.

Additional Information

If a bank held onto our cash without letting us have our money there would be an outcry. Why should the DVLA hold onto our money.
As soon as a car is taxed online the DVLA must be made to give an immediate refund on the car that has been sold. Money is taken electronically therefore should be refunded electronically.
