Hi folks ,applied for a provisional licence for class one, just had my driving licence back today , and the entitlement is exactly the same as my old one , the only difference is it is a different colour.
Been online to look at the DVLA booklet and still none the wiser

I suggest you find a comfortable seat and have a drink as the wait will be some time.
When you say your licence is a different color, what do you mean?
I exchanged my licence (full UK) to add Cat. C provisional, and it was the same color but just a different issue number.
If you check your licence online at www.gov.uk it should show Cat. C provisional at the very bottom of the list of entitlements.
The plastic licence does NOT show provisional entitlements anymore, but the issue number (two digits after your licence number) should match the website.

By different colour I’m assuming he had the old pink licence and now has the new version
