keep receipts when u pay a fine !

[Messenjah]

just got a letter thru saying ive now ogt a £45 fine for not paying my £30 fine for not wearing my seatbelt ...

 

 

I King PAID IT !!!! on the 26th of january !

 

so i went down there to complain they said weve got no record of you paying it well obviously King not if you had a record of it i wouldnt have got this letter would i

 

they dont seem willing to help they could look aty their King CCTV and see me going in to pay the fine if they were willing to help couldnt thye i did notice that cunningly they have to camera in the little room where you hand over the money.... hmmmm

 

 

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR im gonna pay the £45 but theyre getting a very stroppy letter with dates and times tht i went into pay etc and im gonan fight this till they refund it

[negri]

dont pay it mate .

 

stand your ground . if you have paid for sure , no way would they be getting a second payment from me .

Think youve done the right thing mate, pay it and then fight to get your money back. I know and agree you should'nt have to pay the £45 but things will only get worse. Good luck with it

i had similar with a parking ticket...i paid cash, didn't get a receipt, then got letters threatening me with court... they didn't respond to any of my letters... in the end i went to the office in person and didn't leave til i'd spoken to the manager...

 

in the end i had to pay the original £30 fine again, but that was better than going to court and paying a massive fine

 

in future i will pay all fines on my credit card so i have proof of payment

this is the exact reason i pay my fines/endorsements and such like with a cheque, a cheque is tracable whilst cash isnt, half the time in this twisted society we live in the cash goes straight into someones pocket and gets forgotten about.

my dad got a ticket over a year ago now for not wearing his seat belt, he got back in the car and looked at the ticket, the copper who wrote the details forgot to take his name (its a company car, and he owns the company!) and they put the wrong road down radford road instead of radcliffe road, so when the fine came in my dad said that vehicle wasnt driving down radford road, and asked them if they could give him the drivers name, well that was about a year and 6 months ago and we havent heard a thing
