I'll be in London tomorrow morning (Friday 6 Aug). I'll be headed into London for a business/holiday trip. How do I pay the congestion charge to get into London? All the previous times I've been I rode the tube into the city and never had to pay it. This time I have a hired car.

Thank you! I carry a gun because I can't carry a cop.

You can set it up to pay by text. I set it up, never used it and I think I've lost the card....

You can pay by phone as well... Hi Darling, I'll be home in 10 mins. If I'm not back, please read this message again...

How do I know which phone number to call? I carry a gun because I can't carry a cop.

Too late for Tex (sorry mate) but if anyone else is looking at this, do check that you actually need to pay the charge. The area is small and it only applies 0700-1800 weekdays. I live in London and I've only ever had to pay it once. All details on TfL website. No need to pay in advance either. You can pay up to 24 hours late.
