Hello everybody
I live in the Bromley (Kent/South London) area and I left my house this morning to find my car clamped with a big notice on the window.
Turns out I owe money to TFL for non paid congestion charge back in February. I acknowledge I owe it and this was an oversight on my part, I drove into London to pick up my son from St Thomas hospital after he had a procedure and being used to take the tube into London it completely slipped my mind.
Unfortunately since then I have moved house and informed my car insurance company of my change off address (and all other Institutions) but forgot to inform the DVLA I had moved (DOH) so letters have been arriving at my old address but I had no idea. Hence why I knew nothing about enforcement action.
So I called the number and spoke to ‘Mr Gray’ and I never knew there were such people in the world as this piece of shit I spoke to. I begged the man to understand my situation (I am in receipt of the care component of PIP for severe mental health issues for many many years and on universal credit with limited capability to work) and have a small income so I politely asked for a payment plan.
Mr Gray proceeded to call me a liar and an idiot and demanded I call around everybody I know and raise this money, I explained to him that I do not have 555 pound to just lay out in one go and his response was to call me a liar and hang up the phone. Every time I called back he would pick up and say ‘raised the money yet’ and each time I told him that I don’t have anybody to give me it, he would say ‘BYE’ and hang up again.
At this point I am crying my eyes out and he said ‘not interested in your tears mate, your a liar, hurry up and find a way to pay me or I will have your car towed today’
i have been going through a period of relative mental stability and this **** has set me back about 5 years, I am just about ready to kill myself, how can somebody be so vile and cruel and nasty to a person. I acknowledge I owe the money but all I am asking for is the man to be reasonable and accept a payment plan and I will pay as much as I can out of my disability each month (minimum 150).
I phoned Marstons office and they were not interested and said there was nothing they can do and it’s up to the bailiff.
Somebody please help me as he has ordered my car to be towed now so they will be here soon. I rely on my car
