Why is that not a surprise? Troll online, antisocial in real life.

Thanks for your reply. I looked at the Southwark website and noticed that the 12 month period runs from March to April. So you still pay the same amount for 1 month or 12 months. That is ludicrous.

To be fair to Southwark (and I very rarely write that) in the first fiscal year of operation when they started very late they did reduce the fee pro rata. For most people, having signed up once, the council expected them to sign-up again at the start of the fiscal - so having just one price (for 12 months) made bureaucratic sense (they didn't have to build in software for a sliding scale - as logic would always start the 'year' at the beginning of the council's fiscal year). Remember any price changes are implemented then following council votes for the budget.


I think paying pro-rata for months left to April would certainly be fairer - but might be overly complex for a council who are signally poor at their own CPZ charge management.

    • Yet another increase, its absolutely disgusting. I was charged £7.95 to send documents recorded delivery last week. I asked for the Signed for option that only costs £2.50 but the Post Office refused & said they would only send them recorded delivery. 
    • Thanks Admin for clarifying - I’ve now found the post they used to scrape my telephone number from. So it wasn’t a data breach from EDF, rather my foolishness posting it online 15 years ago…    Still leaving this thread here if that’s ok so that people are aware of this scam and don’t fall foul of it (also to think twice before posting phone numbers here as it can be used by any one as I’ve found out!)
    • There is deliberately nowhere to enter your phone number, name, address etc anywhere when registering an account on this forum. There never has been. There is no way to attach this sort of personal information to your account.  If someone says that EDF has given your phone number, then this is a lie. No personal information is sold to any third party and it is not collected in the first place.
