I found a tax disc in a scrapper years ago with a few months on it, knew they only reimburse the keeper but I thought I'd give it a go. | |

What legal action are they ever going to bother taking over 80 quid | |

Ffs YOU CAN'T CASH IT. It gets pid into your account and it has to be cleared. Can only cash YOUR OWN cheques, or some given with special information and if bank holds a credit open facility | |

Who's to say you actually received the letter asking for the money back? | |

If they ask im not going to deny I had the money, just not really in a position to be giving money away if theres no consequences | |

Yeah I only paid about 126 a year iirc so 80 seems a really random number, wasnt sent recorded, cashed it back about two months ago, are they expecting me to pay it back out of the goodness of my heart or am I legally bound to do so? | |

Were any of the letters sent by recorded delivery? If NOT Cash it.. See what happens.. | |

£80 for two months remaining on a 1.0 is obviously wrong | |

Do you know how much tax was left when you sold it? | |

Recieved a cheque from the dvla back in april after I sold my corsa with a note saying it was for a tax refund, so as it was the first car I sold after the new system I figured sounds about right and cashed it as normal. |
