As my work was extended I didnt fly back to Manchester where my is registered and I found a full 105 plus toll had been issued in July. This whole set up is a total farce and I feel sorry for any visiting tourists who get caught out by this. Hello I would certainly appeal on the grounds you could not have resonably been expected to pay on time. The amount they have demanded in this case therefore exceeds what they are entitled to demand. Furthermore to avoid this happening again we have now tried to pay in advance for a further trip (due 17th /18th January). It is a crazy system and amounts to Highway Robbery but they do seem reasonable if you talk to them. I agree Dave, I live in Switzerland and was caught out like yourself and I am currently finding out how and if, I can appeal. There doesnt seem to be any way of checking that the toll has been paid. I didnt even know about those charges as it was my first trip around London. In France motorway tolls are collected by automated credit card readers, why an earth does the UK have to be different? At the bottom of the next page is a button with Make a representation written inside. The last time I crossed, I noticed the big C on the road, which I had seen in London. The first time I did have access to WiFi was after the payment deadline. If you use the M25 Dartford Crossing and dont pay the charge by midnight the day after you cross, youll be liable for a 70 Penalty Charge Notice (PCN). Appeal to the independent adjudicator: If your appeal is one of the few that are rejected, you can take it to an independent adjudicator. What can i do? I therefore find that the decision to issue PCN was not a properly exercised discretionary power as allowed for by the Regulations, and therefore procedural impropriety has occurred. Mumsnet carries some affiliate marketing links, so if you buy something through our posts, we may get a small share of the sale (more details here). we can found a tollbooth open, with no barriers and no charge, only in case of some strike or dismission, Since this is a huge money, I think some good solicitors can do something. So I look forward to receiving my 2.50 back from the 22/05/2015 payment plus compensation for all the inconvenience you have put me through, plus I wont go to the press with this display of total incompetence by your dept, staff and the equipment used. I have never had a speeding fine or parking ticket in my life but this is just ridiculous. You should be fine. Just to check, the DVLA gives the details of my address for the PCN letter? I hope the agency wakes up to reason and to making the best use of modern technology- to the benefit of all. Unofficial siteswill simply take your money, pocket the admin charge and pay the outstanding toll on the public Dart Charge site regardless of vehicle details. As we have very often in our country the toll booths are open when the traffic is to dense, which we believed was here the case too. Although it says I can pay the following day until 12am. I didnt receive any notification as I have been staying in a bed and breakfast since leaving my last abode but thats irrelevant anyway asGuess what? It is a huge amount that youre being asked to pay for a system that is flawed. The 14-day rule should apply as long as it was the first time you havent paid in that actual car. It is still free to use the crossing 22:00 to 06:00. I have just written to them and I was wondering if you have received some sort of reply from them? Hi Pete, What should I do? I have just today received the warning noticea day after my fine which I posted about yest.Ridiculous! They were really helpful and told me to appeal and as its my first offence the chances are the appeal will be successful. 2. the nearest PayZone point to us is 4.9 miles away from me in a direction we never take so if we didnt want or have the ability to pay on line it would be nearly a ten mile round trip thats good for the ozone layer isnt it! Sure enough the appeal went through and I was let off any fines. I totally forgot to pay the charge until I heard an advert on the radio the following Tuesday 28 July. If you forget to pay the Dart Charge payment before or on the day of crossing you have the option to pay by midnight the day after you cross. Decision: The Ride Concepts Women's Vice shoes are my current favourite flat pedal shoe, so I wanted to give the Mid version, with raised ankle, a go. I have been hours going back through credit card and bank statements as I was sure I had made payment. I would suspect youll be charged the 2.50 crossing charge as its your first offence when the penalty is sent out, however your hire car company will still charge what is clearly a very high admin charge. Do I stand a chance in hell of succeeding if I appeal, or will they just say no and add another 35 onto the fine since it will take me over the two-week period when the fine is 35 instead of 70? Anyway, Ill be paying, just a case of how much. I called them and appealed but appeal was rejected and they said my payment will be held it on account of future crossings. The petrol is more expensive.. Help help help..just received a letter from Dartford this morning with a pcn of 70 or 35 within 14 days but the incident happened in july my friend was driving and his english is not very good and didnt realise he had to pay passing charge. WebSimply pay the charge online at www.gov.uk/dart-charge, over the phone by calling 0300 300 0120or via a Payzone retail outlet such as a Post Office. My memory is rubbish. If you believe you should not have been issued a penalty charge notice, you can challenge it by making a representation. The signs are appalling as you can see from our drivers-eye video. I have received a Penalty Notice from Dart Charge after using the crossing not knowing I had to pay for it on my holidays this summer.
