Driver hits out at Birmingham City Council bailiffs over ‘error’ Clear Air Zone fine
  • last year
Steven Ward was shocked when bailiffs attended his home demanding £500 for a Clean Air Zone fine in Birmingham when he had been in his home town of Oldham

A man was hit with a £500 fine and woke to find bailiffs knocking at his door - after a W on his car registration was mistaken for another letter.
Steven Ward, 41, was disturbed at his home by workers from enforcement firm CDER Group.
They slapped him with a notice and warned if he didn't pay they'd take his car - so he stumped up.
Steven has since got his money back from the debt collectors.
