Law / ZUS taking tax and insurance from my UK pension [4]

Every month ZUS takes money from my UK pension which is paid into my Polish bank account, they take tax and insurance which is about 800zl each month, the bank takes it directly and passes it on to ZUS.

I can't open an English bank account as I don't have a UK address as I've lived in Poland for 26 years, I also get a Polish pension which is not taxed, has anyone had the same problem and if so how to get round this problem? The bank said, even if I opened a new account in another bank, they would still take money

Sensible answers would be great fully received

Law / Lost my Driving Licence [5]

OK, here is the problem, last month, i lost my wallet in Poznan, it had my card of permanent stay, my UK driving license and the usual bank cards, Bank cards, no problem, new Card of stay, no problem but my UK driving license is a problem, i went to the local city hall with all the paperwork only to be told they must have the original driving license, but i have lost it, i have a copy of my license but they said its no good, i can't get another UK driving license because i don't have a permanent address in the UK, you must have been at a UK address for more than a year to be classed as permanent. I've been in Poland for 25 years.

Any advice would be grateful
