Hi everyone,
In February my job took me to Strand, London.
It was an eventful day (too longwinded to post here) and I recall entering the congestion charge zone. Oops I thought..
I never heared from the authorities and assumed, because of this, (although I'm not sure of the congestion charge rules) that I was in the zone at a time when no charge would be levied.
However, I recently recieved an "Order of recovery of unpaid penalty charge" requesting payment of £185.00!
I gather the fee for entering the C/C zone is £7.00 which I would have willingly paid had I known it was due.
Now the intesting bit..
My S210, Sprinter and Omega are registered to my company which is RINGWAY ******.
In their infinite wisdom the DVLA listed the S210 as being owned by RINGHAM ******!
I did visit the DVLA office to have their error corrected and received the V5 with the correct details.
I'm sure the RINGWAY vs RINGHAM error may have a lot to do with me not recieving the initial penalty notification, but I fear that I may struggle to get the penalty down to the original £7.00 fee.
Does anyone know where I stand in relation to the above?
Thanks in advance.
Paul.
