Hey,
My wife came back to our parked car today to find a fine for not having up to date tax. We received no notification via email or post. We had signed up for email and had received one previous notification since doing so.
I contacted the department of transport who say they sent an email. They definitely did not. I've asked did their system crash or is there another explanation. I am waiting on a reply.
Is there anything I can do about this?
Please don't write saying I was parked illegally. I'm aware of that but have always paid my car tax.
Thanks,
Nicky
In the case of vehicles eligible for online renewal, the PIN number is printed on the right hand side of the renewal/reminder notice form RF100B. You will receive this when the tax on your vehicle is due for renewal.
If you have lost or misplaced your PIN, have yet to receive it, or have recently purchased a vehicle and wish to retrieve your PIN, you can access the ‘ PIN Retrieval’ link on our homepage, submit the requested details and your pin will be emailed to you if your vehicle is eligible for online taxing. You will also be given the option to receive correspondence relating to the payment of Motor Tax on your vehicle via electronic means.
They have now said they posted out the renewal even though I signed up for email. We got no renewal either way. Thanks for the replies. You live and learn.
..... one day left on tax disc he pointed out ...... Car parked up now as no bank card to pay it online as got skimmed last week.
I am sure in practice there is a grace period of few weeks to cater for delays in receiving the new disk.
Urban myth, there is no grace period for motor tax renewalI am sure in practice there is a grace period of few weeks to cater for delays in receiving the new disk.
