Please help me.

Im northern and dont know how it works.

I went to kent. I set up my PAYG account ages ago.

I went over the bridge. It clocked me. It paid automatically. Woo.

Now.

I came back. Through the tunnel yesterday.

It hasnt shown on my account and no payment been taken.

What do i do?! I dont want to get a fine. Does it just take its time sometimes? Or do i call and ask whats happening?

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

What time did you go through the tunnel? It's free after a certain time - I can't remember when as I always avoid using the Dartford crossings.

Sorry, I can't help then. Keep a record of when you crossed in case there is a problem.

Go onto your account and it will tell you if you have a charge outstanding

Kent

No charge 10pm-6am

If you have a dart charge account it debits £1.67 instead of the £2.50 if you pay via a mobile phone. On several occasions I've not been charged for a crossing and this is something other people have experienced too.

Even if you get a penalty through which I have a few times I’ve never paid more than the initial charge.

Just call straight away.

As others have said don’t worry as I’ve found them pretty easy to deal with.

You won't get fined as your a registered user ( Unless of course there's not enough funds in your account to cover a crossing )

Zero to worry about

I used to use the tunnel and bridge regularly and it used to come straight out of my account, once I think it didn’t show for a few hours, it will tell you on your account. X

I got a fine.. Storey goes

Went through, forgot to pay next day, but "the day after" went online, entered reg number, it said.. Balance to pay £2.50 or so.

Paid, and left it at that.

1 month later, letter comes, £38 fine, however seeing as first offence pay within 7 days and no fine

Thought, well I have paid,doubl checked banking and half looked at payment ref number..left it at that

1 month later, escalated bailiff letter now £250 fine

Phone dart charge explaining I paid what it asked me to pay... They explained what I paid was for a second crossing in advance and not the one in arrears.

It's crap.. I paid what ever it asked and appeal refused to paid £250 to bailiffs for nothing.

Before I met Ads I used the crossings 5 times (one was after ten so 6 times) and I forgot to pay, it wasn’t long after they took the tolls away, I didn’t get the fine letters for about three months after as they were paying catch up, by this point they had stuck charges on, I tried to fight it but ended up with bailiff letters and ended up paying over £800 over 8 weeks!! Most expensive fucks I’ve ever had...they wasn’t even that good either!!
