At the moment we have had a Gold Licence, which expires in December. We had thought not to renew this in January, but keep the boat in the marina Jan-Mar and just get a BW Licence for the K&A starting from 1 April.
However, on reading one of the revisions to BW's licensing terms and conditions, I am now not sure whether we can do this, without incurring a late payment charge. We have done it in years' past but...
This is what the revision says:
6.3
Late payment charge
A charge will be applied for the renewal of a licence that expired more than one month previously.
To strengthen the incentive to renew the licence promptly and thereby reduce our administration and enforcement costs.
Anyone have any thoughts?
