Application / Regulation advice Seeking help/advice

I recently renewed my RPAL. (took forever to get back)

I thought nothing of it when I received my licence. This is the 5th time renewing. Stuck it in my wallet and carried on with life.

Yesterday when I went to use it to aquire ammo. I realized they removed the RPAL and only renewed my PAL. I own restricted firearms.

How do I go about fixing this problem the Cheif firearms office is no help as I can't even get through to a human being.

Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.

I called them on Tuesday. The call lasted 2 minutes and 20 seconds. They answered all of my questions that quickly. I find this quite surprising.

You're clearly cursed. I should probably hang on to your collection for the time being.
