Road Tax

[glochessum]

I get standard rate mobility which apparently entitles me to 50% off my road tax. Have any of you applied for this and if so how did you go about it? The information on the web is somewhat sketchy, almost as if to make it so hard you give up and not bother.

Morning I get the full road tax paid for as I am on higher rate mobility I did not know about the 50%.

I HAD NO PROBLEM APPLYING IT ACTUALLY CAME FROM DISABILITY !

Hi,

Same as Ginsin for me.

My Post Office did for me (someone else can take for you with the paperwork).

Hello I am entitled to full road tax and my hubby is entitled the 50%. We went with the 50% as he is the driver.

His tax was due so he waited for the reminder to come through from Swansea and then sent all the paper work that they asked for.

He had no problems at all.

This is the link to where we had our info from. It is under the heading.`Vehicle tax reduction`.

I got the impression that they were deliberatley not letting people know that it exists, I got a letter with my enhanced rate PIP telling me that i was entitled and how to claim.

My husbands standard rate came through in the same post and there was no mention of the reduced rate any where in his letters. I only found out about it when looking up blue badge entitlement. It is quite well hidden.

It is not something that I have done, but I wanted to wish you all the best of luck.

All my hopes and dreams for you
