TFL ULEZ charges
Hi all
Hope this is easy and quick for someone to answer although I may get laughed at for posting about something so parochial on a site like this!
I live in the ULEZ and have a car that I only use occasionally, mainly for trips down to Cornwall and back as I walk / use public transport in London no problem. I am concerned that some of the £12.50 daily ULEZ charges on my Road User Charging account seem to exceed the number of times I have driven in the ULEZ and also don't seem to correspond to the days I was using the car.
You hear these stories of cloning number plates - is it possible to find out from TFL what days I have been charged for driving in the ULEZ, and where the cameras picked me up? And, if so, is this via a some sort of Data Protection Act Subject Access Request or is there another procedure?
TIA
Mark

If you rarely use the car, in your position I'd delete the user account and pay ad hoc. If you get fines coming in you can challenge them and demand pictures in supporting evidence. Cloning has happened, don't know how common it is though.

Have a chat with them on 0343 222 2222 and explain your concerns.
But from now on you should have a notepad and pen in the car and record all your usage.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
