Hi there, question. My license has been issued as per the website. Am I able to call and get my RPAL number to initiate a transfer? Or will they not give me the number on the phone? Thanks in advance!

If you can get hold of someone in CFP you should get your number. Dealers only need your number and some personal info to initiate a transfer, however private sales needs both the seller and you to call the CFP. Do it at 9 am and grab something today before the transfer freeze come out ! There should be a few P10 left in some stores.
