Hi all,
I'll be driving back to UK in my Spanish registered car and want to pay the Dartford toll. However, a few years back in the same car I forgot to pay and then got back to Spain 6 months later to see a fine of 200 and rather threatening letters from some debt collection agency in Leicester. Obviously was not going to pay that so just binned the letters and they eventually gave up.
So now, if I register my credit card with the same car and elect to pay the upcoming toll, can they use the card details against me to take the 200 quid fine from the past or is that completely seperate and it would be illegal for them to do so?
I want to pay but if it's going to result in them taking the fine I'll obviously have to risk some more threatening letters...
