Paying a speeding Ticket

We have  just received a speedy fine of 100 Euros when we were travelling to Jerez in September .

Has anyone any idea  how or where we pay it?    We went  on the web site but we could not make head not tail of it.   My husband speaks Spanish but his written Spanish is not too good .

Will be grateful for any help . I hope this is not one of these fines that keeps going up and up the longer you  fail to pay.

Go to the post office and pay in cash

the online system rarely works

There should be the name of a bank where you can pay it on the form - if you get there quick enough, you may only have to pay €50, as they discount it for quick payment!

 I paid one online last year. It arrived by special delivery just before Christmas from a trip in October. Got to admit that it was a bit trial and error as to which numbers to put into which boxes but got it work eventually. Combination of google translate and guesswork

Think you have to pay it within a monthof the date on the fine, not the date of the offence, to get the discount.

Trouble is we live in the UK ???

We have tried on various occasions this week-end to pay this fine on the web to no avail. We tried every single number we could  find . In the end we had to ask my husband's brother in law to pay the fine for us.

Lucky for us  he lives in GIb and is retired - but how do other people manage ?  We hate having to ask the family to constantly help us out. and try and sort these things out ourselves, but we find web sites in Spain so bad . Where are all the good web designers  ?

Thanks for your help .

During your internet searching did you try this...

This is the definitive method of payment when you dont have an electronic DNI or digital signature and the procedure is fully described in English here

Do the same as the Spanish and forget it !

(When in Rome ..etc .)

Hi,

We had the same thing a few years ago when we hired a car, the only way to pay it is in Spain, I know pain in the bum.

We sent it to a friend of ours who lives in Spain. It CAN NOT be done in the UK. We even asked the advice of the police here,they said if your not going there again done bother with it, but as we go every couple of months, didnt want to risk being stopped at the airport.

Even the Brithish embassy couldnt help. So my advice would be send it to a friend and forward the money.

Hi.

Yes when you are in Spain it is easy. As long as you pay the fine within 1 month of the date on the fine you get a 30% discount {unless that has changed}. So i just took the form to the Correos {post office} and the lady filled it in for me, took my €70 and gave me a receipt. Jobs a good-un.

As far as I understand from previous posts on other threads you CAN pay your fine online from the UK.

Trust this helps.

 You can definitely pay online from uk, used my mastercard last December to pay it as already mentioned without a digital  certificate and we managed to get the 50% discount.

Sorry, I meant to post this too.

I have recently paid 3 on-line and got the 50% discount.

 Speed merchant? We only ever hire the smallest car (gets very noisy above 120km/hr!) as there are only 2 of us and begrudge paying for a full tank of fuel that we never use. I still can't believe that a little Daihaitsu takes 50€ worth of fuel!

Great news that we can now pay online, saves a lot of worry. BUT lets be honest we shouldnt be speeding

And yes I agreed the fuel price on a hire car is awful, that why we brought our own car, no more being had for every cent.

I was advised by my solicitor to pay at the Post Office (Correros) as you get a receipt to prove you have paid. Hope this helps.

In Tamsin's 2nd post she explained they were in the UK though.

Ii also found this, excellent I think. Take a look.
 

No I think there main home is in the UK, so cant pay at the post office, but people have said you can pay online??? didnt work for me, but maybe things have improved over the last 2 year, I thought they had to be done at a bank or post office IN SPAIN, but if the online one works......... Good luck Tasmin

Best answer is DONT GET CAUGHT SPEEDING

Parking offence paid now by his brother in law . 50 Euro fine  and 2 Euros for not paying iat the Police Station ????

Thank you everyone for your replies .

One thing you can be sure of he won't speed again but sometimes it is so easy to do .
