Paying a fine
How do I pay a fine?
The PCN will be issued to a vehicle, or to the person appearing to be in charge of a vehicle, that is believed to be in contravention of a bus lane or gate.
Please note that the registered keeper or owner of the vehicle, not the driver, is responsible for the payment of the PCN.
The PCN for an illegally parked vehicle is £60 and full payment must be received within 28 days of issue. However, if payment is received within 14 days the charge is reduced to £30.
PCNs can be paid by the following methods:
In Person:
First Point
Howden House
1 Union Street
Sheffield
S1 2SH
Opening hours are 8.30 to 5.30, Monday to Friday
By Post:
Payment may be made by crossed cheque or postal order (made payable to Sheffield City Council). Please write the PCN number and your address on the reverse of the cheque / postal order.
Send your payment, together with the completed slip to:
Sheffield City Council

PO Box 3830
PO Box 3830
SHEFFIELD

Please enclose a stamped addressed envelope if you require a receipt.
By Telephone:
The Council uses an Automated Telephone Payments (ATP) system that allows you to make payment by Debit Card over the telephone, day or night, 365 days a year.
To use this service you will need your ticket reference number, your Debit Card and a pen and paper should you wish to record the receipt number that you will be given at the end of your transaction. You will be asked a series of questions and in order to respond you will need to press the appropriate keys on your telephone. Your payment will be credited to your account the same day.
To use the automated service please telephone (0114) 273 5249.
If you would like to make your payment over the telephone during normal office hours, but would prefer to speak to someone rather than use the ATP service then please telephone (0114) 273 6158.
On-Line via the Internet:
Credit / Debit payment may be made via the internet by visiting the Billpayment webpage and then following the on-line instructions.
