SORN - Fined FFS :/

Desmo · 26-02-2009, 11:17

Had letter through the post this morning saying that my bike wasn't declared as SORN. Fair enough, it wasn't. I received no reminder through the post about my bike (didn't get one for my car either for some reason). My bike is in bits at my parents house too so it's not exactly on my mind to declare SORN.

I know it's my fault, but it's still annoying that I now have to pay out £40 for a bike that's sitting in pieces because I didn't get any type of reminder through the post like I normally would

You're not doing too well with the road side of things lately are you

Doh!

Have you tried giving them a call saying there has been no reminder? Don't know if it will help but it might.

*hugs*

Boo to bills.

Silly question, do you actually have to pay for a SORN in the first place?

Burble · 26-02-2009, 11:35

Nope.

It says on the letter that not receiving a reminder can not be used as an excuse for not declaring SORN, so no joy there.

No mate, doesn't cost a thing.

Once we get our new uber shed in the garden, she'll be coming home

Ok I must admit I wouldn't have given it a second thought :/

I need to set a reminder somewhere just in case I don't get a postal reminder next year. I think I'll stick it in Piggy's diary.

My sis got fined and clamped recently as she hadn't noticed the tax had expired - she got no reminder either.
