My Provisional Licence is taking ages to arrive

I applied for my provisional licence back in July and sent off a form with my photo on at the start of august but it's been over a month now and I've heard nothing. The tracking says 'In Progress: Awaiting Application Return Form' which makes me think my form has been lost in the post? I don't know if I'm just overthinking it but is it normal for the DVLA to take this long? If not how could I sort it out without having to spend 55p for minute for a call?
