cheers mate. i think most of the forum know its been off road for winter too.
i think ni will write them a letter stateing it has been down to their incompetance etc, they can see me in court for all i care, i sent it and i know i did!

mik - too true only because they hate their job doesn't mean they should be an ar*ehole to all the customers especially when so many people dont have jobs

All I can think of is there wise/strict to it all now as it was two years back probably.
First time I did send it off and they f*cked up like above.
Second I was just lazy and told them they messed up again.
Got away with it both times, I just do it online now if I need to.
It's all in the words you use in the letter, also tell them you phoned on such a date.

You think thats bad? They decided a friend of mine had never owned a driving licence when he sent it back to be renewed when it was out of date.

A cousin has been working on the database side of things for them for ages and says it is completely shit. Getting better, but really overly complicated apparently.


They know it's shit, they know it f*cks up so make enough of a stink about it in the letter and hey presto, just like I did.

Always helps when you write a letter in a way the manager would appreciate reading, professionally.

I've had one of these in the past and am currently 'discussing' another issue with them.

They lose massive amounts of mail but cannot tell you how much as they do not class it as lost unless you raise a complaint about it. They have previosuly lose items i know they have received as i got the signed for details from the royal mail.

Keep writing to them stating you sent it however they lost it and you will not be paying the fine as they have lost a couple of court cases over the same thing as this. Basically the judge both times said that the actual act of posting the letter is sufficient and you should not have to follow it up if you dont here anything.

fight the cnuts all the way!

Your Wrong,
The first time I did it I sent 1 tax renewal form stating sorn back, 1 letter of confirmation was sent after I got a warning then I phoned after the fine letter and after that I sent in a letter Complaining and got away with it, what more can you do that's 3 times I'd contacted them, that's enough in my half for a stupid rule anyway so get of your high horse I thought you were bored of 306s now and everything else on here anway, you just post up acting like mr righteousness all the time, your so good you've done it all everything else spoken of is boring or immoral to you isn't it?

Cheers Andy, it can be a sensitive subject when you do all that was expected of you yet they still try to shaft you!! I will definatly write a letter in fact im going to call and request the email address for the c.e.o or entitle the letter to him/he if they refuse to give me the email address. Like you say i have sent the letter, chased them and complained so i will not be paying a fine ive done my part they need to do their's. Plus ill be putting £240 in there pocket for 2 cars tax in the next month i will not pay £80 on top of that.
