SIA licence holders forget to claim back licence fee refunds 
(14/09/2007)
The Security Industry Authority (SIA) is urging thousands of SIA licence holders to claim back their share of over £400,000 waiting to be returned to them in licence fee refunds.
Operatives holding more than one valid SIA licence can claim a 50% refund on their second or subsequent licences, that’s a refund of £122.50 for each additional licence granted.
Thousands of operatives have obtained two or more licences but have failed to claim back a refund on the full £245 licence application fee. Applicants holding licences obtained at the old application fee of £190 may be entitled to a refund of £95.
The SIA is advising licence holders to act now and make a claim. To claim applicants should:
· Hold more than one valid SIA licence
· Hold a full price licence that has more than four months left to run
· Write to the SIA with their full name, address, phone number and licence numbers.
Applicants should write to:
Finance Department (Licence Refunds)
Security Industry Authority
PO Box 49768
London
WC1V 6WY
If a claimant applied for their licences through a company Bulk Application System, then the company needs to apply for the refund.
