Now i changed my UK licence to a Irish in November, unfortunately had to send back as surname was spelt wrong, still waiting for it, as article saids points will be added to a Irish licence on exchange, now in 2008 i received 2 points from what i remember also might be 2 from 2003 so could be 4 over the last 18 years, when my new Irish licence arrived i would have thought they would have been notification on transfer of points with it, now above article was news to me about this ghost system only someone told me about it, on renewal of insurance when asked if i have points on my new Irish i would have said no, not realising i have, has anyone changed there licence from UK to Irish licence and was made aware of the points added to the licence with a letter, because many might not be aware of this on exchange.
