Single Justice Procedure Notice & fine refund

Hi,
I have recently received a Single Justice Procedure Notice letter (12/10/2024)from Metropolitan Police, for a speed offence - going on 35mph on a 30mph road.  About a week after, they sent me an email saying ''This e-mail confirms a refund requested for your order placed with MoJ-HMCTS Fixed Penalty Office on 17/06/2024'' for the amount of £100 which is a speed fine I paid on the 16/06/24, for the same offence.

I called the court and they can't tell exactly why I am getting a refund and why they've now change it to a SJPN, they have suggested possible reasons why that happed, and one of the common one was that they haven't received my details and driving license back, but they did for sure, as they have included copy of the signed response from me. 

I've had  -3 points taken in November 2023 and did the course already.
I've had 3 fines this year and all of them from the same road and I am mad at myself because I always use the app Waze to go everywhere, as it shows speed limit, and I believed I stick to it especially when it shows cameras, so I don't get why I still get fines for it on that same spot. Could it be that Waze speed limit on that area is not accurate?

In case someone else got a fine in the same spot, the named road is A40 nr Terrick StW12 to A40 nr Paddington Grn W2 E/B

Has anyone had a similar experience?

Any suggestion on what might happens? points? expensive fine? suspension?

Thank you

  • looks like 30 to me (on the section I checked)  You should not be relying on Waze or any other app for speed limits.

    Use the signs at the side of the road, along with the knowledge you gained in the previous speed awareness course to determine the speed limit

    As this forum mainly deals with private parking company charges, I suggest that you post your query over on the FTLA website in the appropriate section there.  That is where any "experts" can possibly help you

    Thanks for the advice, I'll do that now.
  • You have to supply your licence details twice, the first time when you name yourself as the driver and the second time when you accept the conditional offer of a fixed penalty. Did you do it the second time?

    Just followed the OP's thread on FTLA and they did indeed fail to supply their DL details when attempting to accept the FP.
  • Yes that's correct, I didn't send it the second time unfortunately
