I think the rules changed in Sept 2012 ONLY for INITIAL class 2 applications. Don't think they apply retrospectively..... BUT for me.....
I had my initial class 2 done in Jan 2013, and now it is my renewal with a different AME who is saying I need to have done what I should have had done back at my initial in 2013.
Thereafter, for each renewal I won't have to repeat these tests as they are a one off for Class 2's.
But I have no idea where to go. AME referred me to my GP. My GP says I need to source it privately. Called a local clinic who want £205 for initial consultation, not including any tests... downgrading to a LAPL might be the way forward here.
