Obligations to provide us with certain information
If you are the driver, but not the registered keeper, of a vehicle for which a PCN was issued then you may elect to transfer the liability for the PCN from the keeper to you. In this situation we will require your name and address for the purpose of transferring the PCN liability to you. If you do not provide the required information then we will not be able to transfer the liability to you and the liability for the PCN will remain with the vehicle’s registered keeper.
If you intend to pay a PCN fee then you will be required to provide us with your address and payment card details for us to process the payment. If you do not provide the required information then we will not be able to process the payment. We do not retain payment card details.
