TFL letter
Are they sending out ULEZ letters to everyone in the country, even those
of us with the good sense to never go anywhere near Londonistan? Bill |

Not sure about that but there seems to be enough, from what people tell me
about it on Twitter and facebook too. I guess nobody can then suggest they were not aware of it. Brian -- ----- -- This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from... The Sofa of Brian Gaff...

I wasn't aware of it before reading this thread. I would guess that the
majority of those living outside London haven't heard of it. When was this letter Bill was referring to sent out, and who was it sent to? -- Jeff On 13/01/19 08:29, Brian Gaff wrote: Not sure about that but there seems to be enough, from what people tell me about it on Twitter and facebook too.

Yes of course, they are sending to businesses in the main. Of course I do
not know if it says or not but also they are removing the exception of private hire vehicles from paying the charges. This is supposed to reduce traffic. Of course the private hire industry are not happy, saying they are making the black cab drivers a monopoly. Brian -- ----- -- This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from...

No it was sent to a retired schoolteacher who hasn't been to London since 1965. She has two cars but the letter didn't mention a reg no. or anything. Bill |

Bill q When ULEZ operates A daily charge runs from 00:01-midnight. If you drive within the ULEZ area across two days, for example before midnight and after midnight, you will be liable to pay two daily charges if your vehicle that doesn't meet the ULEZ standards. /q If you have to pay, it's £12.50 per day. Big incentive to not overstay the welcome. |

Big incentive to not overstay the welcome. Useful to hear this (I didn't get a letter). My son will need to pay (or his company will) but my car is Euro 6, so OK. -- My posts are my copyright and if @diy_forums or Home Owners' Hub wish to copy them they can pay me £1 a message.

Well best make sure the cars she has have not had their numbers cloned or
later in the year loads of fines will descend. Brian -- ----- -- This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from... The Sofa of Brian Gaff...

I don't know how you can check your registration number has _not_ been
cloned (unless you have access to the data from all the ANPR systems). You only find out if it has been cloned when the parking charges, penalty charges, notices of intended prosecution, police etc start to arrive. It may well be that the letter has been sent because the number has been cloned and picked up by the congestion charge (CC) cameras. TfL have been writing to the registered keepers of such vehicles to warn them about the ULEZ. If so it should indicate TfL got the address from DVLA. On the plus side, that means the driver of the car with the cloned plates has been paying the CC and may well pay the ULEZ charge. They may be using the cloned plate to avoid insurance, road tax and MoT; and as insurance should they need to do a runner. That said, it'd still be sensible to let TfL et al know - though there's not much they can do about it. And to put something on the back and front of the car to distinguish it from the bog standard.
