    Found them quite helpful. Sometimes they even suggest that if you ring back often you might get a cancellation slot at very short notice (same day/next day).

    They usually do but are under no obligation to do so. The letter is sent as a courtesy. The registered owner of the vehicle is responsible for ensuring that it has a valid NCT.
