Great start to the weekend when I came home on Friday night to a letter from Northampton county court via a debt collection agency advising that I now owed them and Manchester City Council ~£200 for a bus lane fine and associated admin/collection costs. This was for driving in a bus lane in June last year. I've checked the images on the council website via the reference number on the court notice and I'm not disputing the fine. However, I've had no opportunity to pay the reduced penalty or the penalty minus admin costs as I received no previous correspondence from the council on this, so I'm not willing to pay the increased fine and bailiff costs.
Has anyone had any experience of dealing with similar issues and can advise what to do next? As I said, happy to pay the reduced fine but not the full whack.
