Discounted road user charges (RUC) scam

Don’t trust someone saying they can get you a discount on road user charges (RUC) – they can’t.

These scammers use stolen credit cards to buy RUC for you, then keep your money.

That means you may pay twice: first to the scammer and then to us (because the scammer’s payment wasn’t valid, so there’s money owing in your name).

Please contact us if you have any doubt about someone offering to help you buy one of our products, especially if they’re offering a discount or cheaper rate.
