  1. I've wrote a letter, here is what i wrote: "Dear Nick Fairholme. I am writing to you in response to a letter I received from your department, The letter was sent to an old address that I had when I owned a Black Saxo VTS (Reg: T25VTS). So I received this letter later than it was delivered because, I no longer live there. It says that I have failed to pay a congestion charge of £120 and that it was increasing to £180 pound, there was no other letters at the address stating the £120 fine. The fine was for a congestion charge in London, I have never been to London in my adult life and the car associated with the fine I no longer own and haven't done so for nearly a year. At the time of sale I filled out the appropriate documentation and sent it off and never thought anything after that. But now I understand this fine is linked to me because the car is classed as still mine. I trust under the circumstanced and I ask you kindly to please agree to waive the penalty on this occasion as I was clearly not the driver of the vehicle on the date in question. I understand I can provide little evidence as I sold the car on gumtree to a guy called Ashley who lives in Nottingham, all I've been able to provide you with is a bank statement of the sale date and emails I received from the buyer stating the date he was going to collect the car. I really cannot afford this, we are all going through tough times and I'm living with my mother At the moment and I am currently unemployed trying to pay off an overdraft. Please find in this letter attached is a bank statement and emails which from the buyer. Thank you, i hope you can help me and i appreciate you taking the time to read this letter." Anything i should change, Thanks guys.
  2. Ok thank you so much, very helpful. Only proof i have is emails from a guy called Ashley who says he was coming up on saturday to buy the car from nottingham and i'll get a bank statement where i deposited 1700 pound into my bank. You have any advice on how i should sound in the mail, like do i say, i sent the V5 doc away and i understand if i swear under oath that i sent it that's the only proof the judge will need to believe me, or do i plead with him and be as nice as possible.
  3. I've emailed Transport Of London with a complaint. hopefully my fine won't increase while i await their reply.
  4. Cant accses the gumtree ad, its not an order of recovery either. it doesnt give me a date in which i can appeal to just says my fine is going up because i haven't paid it. How do i appeal? Who do i email?
  5. Lol im not doing good so far, it was on gumtree ebay charge u a fortune
  6. Unfortunately he gave me cash and i put it into my bank on the day. i will check the letter to check the appeal cut off day. Thank you for the advice.
  7. Hello there good people, i am hoping for some solid advice on this matter. I had a saxo vts, i sold it filled in the v5 and im 99% sure but can not say for certain if i ever sent it off. The car when i had it was registered to an address i no longer live at ad the other day i visited that house (It's my GF's brothers house) and i was greeted by a letter from Transport of London for a congestion charge that hasn't been payed and the charge was issues for the offense in December. The letter was saying that since i have not payed the fine has increased, this is the 1st Ive heard of it and there was no other letters there either from transport of London. I called the them and they asked for proof that i am not the owner of the car but tbh, i don't have any and the only thing i know about the buyer is that he is called ashley. i have emails from him saying when he will buy the car. I've called the DVLA and they say it is registered to me and that if i want to change ownership of the vehicle i need to send them a letter which is what I'm in the process of. I don't live anywhere near London and Ive never been to London in my adult life. The fine is 180 pound, do i have any chance of appealing it or do i just bite the bullet and fork out the money. Thank you very much any advice appreciated.
