Don't know if it true, but......

Avoid points on your licence! I have never tried this.

 

                 

Only accountants could come up with this one; Pay your fine, but, NO POINTS DEDUCTED, !!

 

Read on :-

 

 

This is how the points get added to your licence:

 

If you get a fixed penalty notice through the post which also carries penalty points the  computer system first sends you a demand for the cash.

 

When you have paid, it then sends a demand to return your licence for endorsement.

 

It cannot handle the licence endorsement and the payment at the same time, and it cannot  process the points part of the system until the financial section is complete.

 

If you overpay the fixed penalty, it must issue and send a refund cheque for the  overpayment.

 

 

Therefore, overpay the fixed penalty by sending a cheque for the full amount plus £1.

 

The computer will then automatically generate a refund cheque for the over-payment and send  it to you.

 

**** Do not cash this refund cheque - DUMP IT.

 

The system then remains 'open' and cannot  generate the 'send your licence for endorsement' demand part of the program.

 

It does, however, record your payment of the fixed penalty, so it does not trigger the  'follow-up unpaid fine' stage.

 

As there is no human intervention, the system will leave you alone, since it has got your  money, which is the primary objective!
