Getting a driver's license renewal with the NH-DMV, the New Hampshire Division Motor Vehicles, has become like trying to get a date with a very good looking, attractive woman, who simply does not want to communicate with me. It's like an impossible situation.

Since about March 15, due to the necessity of safety brought on by the coronavirus pandemic, the NH-DMV has closed their DMV office in Tamworth on Route 16. From the lakes region, the closest DMV offices for license renewal are in Twin Mountain, one hour north, and Concord, one hour south.

An appointment is required and one cannot just go to these two locations without an appointment. My problem is that I recently dropped my one and only telephone, a Tracfone flipfone into the lake and replacing it is not possible because there are no new phones to buy. Yesterday, I drove around to all three Walmarts in Pymouth, Gilford, and Tilton, plus the two Rite Aids in Meredith and Plymouth, and all five different stores are sold out of the $19.88 flip-fone and do not know when any new ones will be arriving.

So, with no flip-fone, I cannot call the NH-DMV, and these two offices in Twin Mountain and Concord do not accept walk-ins.

I sent the Concord DMV an email asking to get an appointment and explained about my fone situation and two days later got a return email telling me to phone them for an appointment.

Every four years, the NH driver's license expires and it becomes time to get it renewed and unfortunately, this pandemic year is my year.

Now, if only there was still such a thing as a pay phone where, once upon a time, you could drop a dime into the slot and make a call, or talk to that very helpful phone operator from New England Telephone ....... we're the one for you New England ....... New England Telephone!

If someone from the NH DMV actually sees this thread, please contact me via this thread so's I can get a date and a time for my license renewal in either Twin Mountain or Concord ...... thank-you. ......

....... like I said, my prospects are not too good, just like trying to get a date with a really good looking woman ....... lots-o-luck, buddy!
