WhackyWill Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 October! Thanks Bradders. How does that work as I need to renew mine in Sept ..Does that mean I have to tax it for a month and then use the new system ?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Bradders- Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Im assuming it will just state that you no longer need to show the disc in the window? as its all electronic now but we still keep the disc on show! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilogikal1 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 October! Thanks Bradders. How does that work as I need to renew mine in Sept ..Does that mean I have to tax it for a month and then use the new system ?. No, you tax it for the year/6 months as usual. In October you can bin the disc from your window, then the next time after that, that it's due you just have more payment options. The system itself isn't changing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDON Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 yeah I got the brown envelope today! so its 500 for me before the end of the month ;( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean_1983 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 So mine is also due in September ... That mean I can't opt to pay it monthly ? Till it's then due again ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Pay as normal. They will give you the option to pay monthly (which costs more, so don't be in a rush!) when it's time, ie 6 months after. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMballistic Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Got my tax to buy this month as well. £156.75 for 6 months. Can't wait for the new system to start though as my eBay special tax disc holder keeps falling off the window. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait for the new system to start though as my eBay special tax disc holder keeps falling off the window. I can't wait for the discs to be abolished purely so that I no longer spend hours getting the disc exactly level in the holder, curse my OCD. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetSet Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I just ordered the 370z RIchbrook tax disc holder!!! What a twit!!.. Completely forgot about the changes to the tax disc.. :-( . It's a real pain taking the tax disc holder apart, started off with 5 micro screws, now I'm down to 3 and it has to be wedged between the window and the dash now.

Pete That's funny Pete ~ I used to have a "Racing" anti-theft tax disc holder where you needed a blinking spanner to open it which was a major pain. Funny thing is as well if someone did want to steal your tax disc then they'd have just taken the whole thing anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chubbster Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I like tax discs I shall miss the challenge of trying to tear the perforations perfectly, to make a perfect circle without cheating by using scissors. No lumps, no torn bits and no portions missing. Takes a while, but it is do-able. Yes - I'm OCD too. And what I don't understand is why you guys have got a demand for £500. Mine plopped through the letterbox today too - and it's for £485. Is it because I have a 370? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
