Road fund Licence by direct debit

[cotty]

I am just about to go and buy my monthly car tax stamps from the post office and will probably have to wait ages to get served. I was thinking why not allow people to pay by direct debit like say a TV licence. You pay a set amount each month and once a year they send you a new licence.

Any ideas why this would not work

Because the more time you spend in a queue, the less time you are in the car killing ickle children.

Its a conspiracy and you aint seen me

Because you have to show your MOT, insurance and V5 to get it. Can't do that by DD

Edit cos I didn't read the post properly. Ignore me

OK thinking about it, it was a stupid idea I was just thinking there must be an easier way to pay.

ps you could send your documents off once a year rather that going into a Post Office

I can see why you need to be there in person but the bastards don't take switch or CC which can be a right pain in t'arse.


And there always shut on my dinner hour. Twats.


I don't like PO counters BTW.

You have to admire the good old Post Office logic, don't you. They offer cheque cashing, foreign exchange, high value postage and yet they STILL won't take a card!

And they wonder why Consignia were pissing money away like it's going out of fashion?

Ahh, but they will very soon. About time too, although they resent paying the card charges, it's about time
