OP thanks for this, good to know. Quick question if you don't mind - I bought a new car and had to fill in the RF100F form including a period on non use. Taxing it now, it needs the Certificate of Roadworthiness Number - is this 100% necessary? If I don't have it will they reject it?

A cert of road worthiness is only required for goods vehicles

I find it staggering that so many people genuinely(?) didn't realise that paying tax before it increases would save some money. :pac:

I think it's more the case that people didn't realise that it's possible to pay online before you actually get the pin number in the post (well speaking for myself anyhow).

Lads, Just so you all know..you don't need to wait on your pin, your pin is the last 6 digits of your chassis number...

As we all know from the leaked budget, the government is probably going to increase motor tax (possibly immediately as they did last year).
If you go online and pay now (if you don't have the pin number you can easily retrieve online from the same log on page).
I did that yesterday and even if price increases I'll have paid the current rate.

Do the government out of euros? I know it's off topic, but Christ some people need to understand the concept of why you pay taxes.

Can we take it that you volunteer more than you are required to pay then?

15% increase, madness.. I drive a simple 05 1.9 diesel and if that 15% comes through its over a €100 increase :O Frustrating times, especially seeing spanking new Beamers driving down the road with their drivers spending a fraction of what I'm paying

Thanks OP. Got caught out with this last year as wasn't expecting an IMMEDIATE tax increase on Budget Day, thought it would be effective from 01/01 as most increases are. Had forgotten about it tho' so great to get the reminder, thanks again!

A 05 1.9 diesel is only likely to see a 7% increase.

It's the post-08 bands that will see the biggest percentage increase.

PIN Retrieval Unsuccessful

If I could Tax it now I would

I cant find my insurance company on the drop down menu. It is bestquote but the policy is underwritten by Sertus. Anyone else have this problem? Looks like I can't renew online.

select any insurance provider and a random number for policy details. It will process fine.

I'd this problem but there was a different name on my insurance disc and it worked fine after that.

Obviously you can't renew it, it isn't due for renewal for almost two months.

Thanks for the heads up lads i paid online just now for January. Cheeky feckers they are by not sending me notice of my renewal a month in advance they caught me last year but never again

So why do I get a different PIN every renewal?

killbillvol2

Cheers OP. Never realised I didn't have to wait for the PIN.

Just to clarify, i can just make up my insurance details? My insurance is up in two weeks and I will mnost likely be switching providers but dont know which yet.

I always just put in zeros for the insurance thing as I never have it on me..

Yes, select the first provider and enter any details you like for the policy number. It WILL work.

First PIN is from the VIN, then they give you a random PIN for each subsequent renewal AFAIK.

Thanks just paid there. Will save 53e if the 15% comes in. Thanks OP

I did not know that, thanks!!

Just paid there now. I got caught out a few years ago by this. My tax is up at end of December, I paid after budget and was charged the new higher price. I had assumed it would not kick in until new tax year.

Just bought a car today. It's out of tax. Garage man gave me the Log Book rather than posting it to Shannon, he reckoned they would let me tax it in my name in the tax office, any ideas?

Go to the tax office. Complete the form for tax renewal ( think its a RF100A ). They'll have them in the tax office. Fill out the details as per the current Reg Cert. ( i.e Previous owners name, address, yada yada yada ). On the insurance provider section, just enter your insurance provider and policy number. Select your tax term. 3/6/12mths. Pay the money. That should do it.

Then send that book to shannon with your details on it
