Blackwall Tunnel - Tfl - First time using
DIR By: theeagleman

Hello!
I have been struck with the Blackwall Tunnel PCN!
My first time using the tunnel.
Furthermore, I was actually going to pay, but as I was setting
up the account late at night, the website kept timing out (which
I did not take screenshots for).
I set up the autopay service, but they sent the validation email
well after midnight, so I missed the cut off.

Is there anything (besides asking poliltely and showing attempt
to pay by way of their own automated emails) that could be done?
Thanks!

First off, have you now established an autopay account ? If so
then be sure to emphasise this when writing your reps. Also
mention the website timing out. Be sure to mention that you are
willing to pay the unpaid toll.

Yes, the autopay account has been established.
Will stress the timing out and proof of trying to pay!
I assume there is not much to go on really is there?
I know in the early days, they exercised discretion, but not
sure if they will now though.

Did you try and pay the charge within 3 days or were you setting
up autopay in the hope it would pay a retrospective charge (it
won't).

Tried to pay within 3 days, but when going to set up the account
(after 11pm) it kept timing out and by the time i set it up, it
went over 3 days.
So after midnight, I could no longer pay for the day I went
through :(

TfL accepted the Reps.
Did not ask to even pay the £4, which I did offer. :)

You have done very well, congratulations ! I think the fact you
set up an auto-pay account probably swung it, plus the new tolls
on what was once toll-free.
