Whereabouts did they clamp your vehicle - work, home, street parking? |

I always do mine at the end of the month due to pay day. You have 7 days to renew after. |

Not sure you have that luxury anymore, I believe they changed the rules. If it has run out, thats the end of it. |

Apaarently they're not issuing reminders anymore, so a note to everyone.
I parked mine on a road near where I work. No idea how they would have seen that, no wardens round here.
£100 release fee, another £160 cos I have no disc, although they'll refund it when I show them I have got one.
seems a bit harsh. I'm not one to avoid paying for things, just had no idea!
£100 just before pay day rules me out of orient saturday though. cnuts.

They issue renewal notices though as that gives a reference to renew on line. I didn't think they ever issued reminders.

I guess there'll be a form to fill out, but not all post offices do road fund licenses now. You'll need registration document, Insurance certificate and MOT certificate(and these days probably ID as well) Have you changed addresses in the last year and not notified them ? |

It so much easier to pay for your tax over the phone these days and doesn't cost a penny more if you are using a debit card, there is a charge for a credit card.
