As for the ban, they are a con, as they never show how they detected the TV in the first place, as this would be contested in any court.

When i first started work, many many years ago now. I was in the accounts dept, and my boss always use to tell me never pay anyone until the red letter arrives, until someone sends a red warning, they don't really want the money.0

What a numpty - if everyone didn’t pay until the redremindernp - no wonder so many small businesses shut down.

I must be missing something even if you did pay late it ( which would be daft with car tax as it's a automated process now so a fine letter would be sent out within days as you still have a reminder sent before it actually due) the amount would still be the same over the year as they would just back date from the date due.0
