About this app

To improve air quality, an Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) now operates in central London. It covers the same area as the Congestion Charge zone.

With the Pay to drive in London app you can:
- Pay for Congestion Charge, ULEZ, and LEZ charges
- Pay charges for the previous day, today, or the next charging day
- Pay Penalty Charge Notices
- View map of zones and check if a postcode is in a charging area
- Sign up to Auto Pay and save on the daily Congestion Charge
- Manage your account, vehicles, and payment details
- Review your payment history

This official TfL app makes it easy to pay the Congestion Charge, ULEZ and LEZ.

I wish I could rate it lower! I paid for a visit into the congestion charge zone, via this app. It wasn't picked up by the tfl and I spent the better part of 2 months arguing with tfl that I had made a payment. The payment shows on my bank account but tfl say that they can't find the payment! No receipt was sent when purchased from the app. Rubbish! DO NOT USE!!!

Confusing app, should be a lot simpler. Why can't i just set it up so that if I go into the congestion charge zone it just charges my card and sends me a receipt? What's all this 'ten pounds per vehicle per year' stuff? Why should I have to pay extra to set up auto pay? Even with 'auto pay' there's still no way of telling if your vehicle has triggered the congestion charge until you get billed at the end of the month (well I assume that's how it works). Clunky government paid from-my-taxes app.

Pretty useless! There are NO notifications, so you have no idea if your vehicle has been picked up and if the payment was successful or not when using Auto Pay. You have to go into the app itself, login online, or search through your emails to get any info at all. So you might just as well just pay manually and put your mind at rest that all is in order. You might otherwise end up with a huge fine and at the very least waste precious time finding out if your payment went through or not👎🏼👎🏼
