It is something that could be looked at, the perfect place is on Riverside under the railway - seeing as they won't allow a nightclub there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am pipe dreaming of start up ideas, because I want to go out on my own. This seems like a low cost start up.

I'm booking into a Wreck It in Aberdeen and theres an Escape room set up a couple doors down so I might make a full day of it - I see theres a few in Dundee too so I might hold off and do it another week. The hardest one has a record of 20mins and you've got 60mins to escape. I'm a bit apprehensive that I pay £50 a head and walk out 20mins later as its aimed at raging simpletons. Scott and his pals went to one in Glasgow. Took them 35 minutes, and cost £18 a skull. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thistledo Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Anyone ever been in the position where they've traded a vehicle in and then received a fine for the vehicle you used to own? This just happened to me, Tyne tunnels are the mob chasing me for money, even though I've provided evidence I traded the vehicle in, it seems the dealer have not put the change of vehicle through until a week or two after. I've contacted the dealer to sort it and sent an appeal to Tyne tunnels, who say I need to get a letter from the DVLA to them prior to the 14th of June or the appeal is cancelled and the DVLA's automated phone line say I need to write to them about this and it can take 6 weeks to respond. Basically an impossible deadline. Now I'm a reasonable person, who's taken the appropriate action and it seems no one gives a f**k. Getting pretty angry now, tempted to drive through to the dealers and have a go at them tbh. I'm also tempted just to leave it until court actions appears, but tbh I've too much going on in my life for that sort of aggro right now. Anyone have any pearls of wisdom on such matters? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happens all the time with things like car tax fines where the vehicle has been sold but the relevant form hasn't been sent to the DVLA. Advice is usually "that it's up to the owner to inform DVLA of the change of ownership and you've got a fine so nae luck". I suppose you could always take the risk of waiting until they take you to court for non-payment.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd do that, it's clearly their fault, how much is the fine? If it's not huge they might just hand it over to get rid of you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I get taken to court that's alright, I'm not paying it regardless. Been told I can be stubborn at times. 20 hours ago, welshbairn said: I'd do that, it's clearly their fault, how much is the fine?

Only £30, I ended up phoning the "Business Development Manager" yesterday, ready to have a bit of a go at him, but he seemed rather apologetic and said not to worry about it he'll either figure out who it was or they'll pay it. The person I spoke to before about it was the guy who sold me the car and probably just didn't care about sorting it. Shocked etc... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't it be easier all around to pay the fine and then get the money back from the dealer as they've already said they'll pay? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only it was that simple. Trying to get money off the dealer after would be like getting blood out a stone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
