    I am indeed a thick … I was entering the wrong identifier. The driver number on the new plastic card is field 4d.

    I was entering the alphanumeric identifier in field 5

    well Govt aren't letting something similar go, and still collect a levy for PMPA, don't they ?

    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    I've a feeling you might have replied to the wrong thread?

    Anyway, the insurance levy expired 01/01/2025 as the fund now has 200m in it

    If it goes under 200m, the levy comes back until it's restored. It was 800m underwater as recently as 2019 so the turnaround to 200m above is surprising in that time - but they were getting over 100m a year in levy in the last few years; and they finally got some money out of Quinn's auditors.

    All told, Quinn cost the fund over a billion, PMPA 139m and ICI 164m after all recouped from all of them. Loads of other "small" (for definitions of multi millions being small!) failures too
