Dart Charge False Vehicle Record
Hi, I'm a northerner so don't use the Dart crossing that often. However, the last three times I've used it, the Dart charge has designated my factory-fitted motorhome on the payment page as a bus, van or coach even though I've entered the reg correctly and the initial gov.uk search has acknowledged it's correct…

At the time I appealed on the basis that the Date of Contravention was 3rd March 2023 and the Issue date of the PCN was 20th March 2023, so 17 days later. From that time there was a catalogue of mistakes.... I received an acknowledgement of my appeal but no decision.…

Do I appeal a APCOA fine for Stansted drop-off zone?
I received an APCOA fine for using the drop-off zone without paying. Slightly my fault, but it was my first time there, and was mainly focused on the road as it was quite busy. I saw a sign saying 'express drop-off', and a road leading to the terminal which I assumed was where you would drop someone off. I was there for…
