Fixed penalty paid, but still received letter saying not been paid

Basically i got fixed penalty on the 8th december 2013. the payment was taken out of my account on the 13th december 2013.

I have received a letter dated 22nd January 2014 saying that they have not received payment and they have not received request for court hearing.


My bank statement clearly shows them taking the payment 5 days after i received the penalty.


My question is, can i use this as an advantage to get my money back which i payed?

interested in hearing your views, ideas.

    Write back to them saying it has been paid , enclose a redacted bank statement proving that. Check that the money hasn't been refunded because it hasn't been allocated properly
