You will then get a bill plus penalties for not paying previously. 19.20 pm last night I got a reply Thank you for contacting Dart Charge. Your reference number is .................... We have added the vehicle to your account as requested. 'Checked my account and there it is. OOF! http://www.car4play.com/forum/post/index.htm?m=689403&v=e car4play689402 Sun, 07 Jun 2026 02:23:39 +0100 >> Why not just leave it as exempt….. >> Well, It is only OUR taxes paying for it. >> >> At some point they may well get themselves organised and realise that you owe them a backlog of fees.

It's nothing to do with Motability - they're just a lease company. DVLA correct the tax class and eventually Dart's system will catch up. In the meantime you've found the manual over-ride. http://www.car4play.com/forum/post/index.htm?m=689401&v=e car4play689399 Sat, 06 Jun 2026 19:10:58 +0100 Why not just leave it as exempt…..

You're not as useless as you thought you were ORB.. Yes I am..but sometimes even I surprise myself, Just don't tell youngrovergirl. http://www.car4play.com/forum/post/index.htm?m=689393&v=e car4play689392 Sat, 06 Jun 2026 16:09:49 +0100 I think I just waited until the information about Seoras no longer being taxed as 'disabled' found its way to DART. But then living in the South Midlands, other than going to Chunnel/Dover or CAMC Black Horse Farm, I've very limited scope to need the crossing. http://www.car4play.com/forum/post/index.htm?m=689392&v=e car4play689389 Sat, 06 Jun 2026 15:07:14 +0100 In the space of 1 hour 2 minutes you've not only answered your own question but also had time to write a useful summary for others. You're not as useless as you thought you were ORB. ;) http://www.car4play.com/forum/post/index.htm?m=689389&v=e car4play689388 Sat, 06 Jun 2026 13:56:03 +0100 From the horses mouth. Open your Dart Charge account (log in) Go to Account management. Select Contact Dart Charge Select General Enquiry Select Account management. On the next page in the provide more detail box add your new reg number and an explanation, then upload a photo of the front page of the V5, Go to next page and check details and add phone number and follow on continue. Very nice operator from Dart charge explained and talked me through it. That's after giving a wrong answer on the phone so it would put me through to a human. Motability don't do anything. You have to request a manual override of teh Dart system. http://www.car4play.com/forum/post/index.htm?m=689388&v=e car4play689387 Sat, 06 Jun 2026 13:23:39 +0100 Presumably now you've had a V5 the disabled status is cancelled on DVLA records. It make take a further period of time for that change to 'percolate' through to DART. ISTR having something similar with Seoras the Superb which was previously taxed as Disabled. http://www.car4play.com/forum/post/index.htm?m=689387&v=e car4play689386 Sat, 06 Jun 2026 13:11:58 +0100 Presume you know or have checked whether it's in the DVLA Disabled tax class - as, if it is, it is exempt. Check here https://www.gov.uk/get-vehicle-information-from-dvla http://www.car4play.com/forum/post/index.htm?m=689386&v=e car4play689385 Sat, 06 Jun 2026 12:54:52 +0100 Finally got my V5C after 22 days.. Same day as I got the slip for No longer owner of the old car. In spite of attempting to call Motability and not finding a way to get through the telephone maze.. I did email Motability more than a week ago, but saving taxpayers money is not apparently high on their agenda. I am unable to register the car to my Dart account or pay for a one off crossing as each time it says exempt. Any Ideas ? http://www.car4play.com/forum/post/index.htm?m=689385&v=e
