Payments of Fines and Fixed Penalties

Fines and fixed penalties can be paid at the public counter in the main courthouse building.

Visitors to the public counter are required to go through security screening upon entry to the courthouse building.

The opening hours for the public counter are:

• 9am to 5pm Monday to Thursday; and
• 9am to 4.30pm on Friday

The public counter also provides a telephone payment service through a dedicated payments line:

(+44) 01624 686423

Although the telephone payments desk is not always staffed, callers are able to leave a message to request a call back to enable a telephone payment to take place.

Callers should have their debit card or credit card to hand and details of the fixed penalty or fine reference available but should not leave these details on the voicemail message system.

Customers should note that a 2% charge is added when paying by credit card.
