UK motorists warned as TfL's £18 plans unveiled for anyone driving in London
Plans to spike the London Congestion Charge to £18 per day has sparked outrage, with many branding the proposal 'day light robbery' - but TfL says such measures are necessary Brits could soon be stung with £18 fees for driving through central London - following controversial proposals to hike the Congestion Charge. Transport for London (TfL) has unveiled bold plans to increase the £15 daily fee for drivers in the Big Smoke by 20 per cent from January 2, 2026. The increase marks the first rise since 2020, when the fee cost just £11.50. In place from 7am-6pm Monday through Friday, and 12pm - 6pm on weekends and Bank Holidays, the charge aims to 'manage traffic and congestion in the heart of London' at the busiest times of day when road space is 'most constrained'. TfL states that congestion in the capital cost London £3.85 billion in 2024 alone - averaging out at £942 per driver. Its fee increase attempts to curb the additional 2,200 vehicles that would otherwise join the weekday traffic. TfL has also proposed that, from March 2027, and for new applicants only, the Residents' discount will be available only for electric vehicles. A public consultation on the changes started on May 27 and will end on August 4. Drivers who don't pay the charge within 48 hours will face a penalty of £180. However, this is reduced to £90 if paid within 14 days. Motorists with electric cars (EVs) will receive a 25 per cent discount if they're registered for Auto Pay - while a 50 per cent discount will be offered for electric vans, Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs), light quadricycles and heavy quadricycles registered for Auto Pay. From March 4, 2030, these discounts will decrease to 25 per cent for electric vans, HGVs, light quadricycles and heavy quadricycles registered for Auto Pay - and 12.5 per cent discount for electric cars registered for Auto Pay. TfL is also consulting on some proposed changes to the Mayor's road user charging guidance, which would allow the Congestion Charge to be increased each year in line with Tube fares, inflation plus 1 per cent or a lower amount. Drivers of older, more polluting vehicles are already subject to paying £12.50 to travel anything within the Ultra Low Emission Zone (Ulez) which was expanding in 2023 to cover all of London's Borough. This means cars that don't meet the Ulez requirement will have to pay £30.50 a day to drive through central London. "The congestion charge has been a huge success since its introduction, but we must ensure it is fit for purpose," said Seb Dance, Deputy Mayor for Transport. "Sticking to the status quo would see around 2,200 more vehicles using the congestion charging zone on an average weekday next year. "At the same time we must support Londoners and businesses to use greener and more sustainable travel. That's why I'm pleased we're proposing that substantial incentives remain in place for Londoners who switch to cleaner vehicles. We encourage everyone to have their say and respond to the public consultation." The proposals were also welcomed by environmental charities including Clean Cities Campaign and Possible. Sophie O'Connell, Senior policy adviser at the Green Alliance said: "It's great to see London continuing its leadership in encouraging the switch to cleaner vehicles through the proposed changes to the Clean Vehicle Discount. "With larger incentives for electric vans and delivery vehicles, which have further to go in decarbonising, these changes target the right areas. The new measures send a clear signal: driving a polluting vehicle through central London should not be cheaper than taking public transport, making the cleaner choice the obvious one while supporting both public health and the environment." However, the announcement has riled swathes of commuters - who have branded the proposed charges 'daylight robbery'. "Jeez, how to rinse every pound out of the ordinary working man," one person complained on X (formerly Twitter). Another scathed: "Another reason not to visit London anymore!" A third added: "Worked in London in the 80s and I wouldn't visit the capital now if you paid me," while a fourth dubbed the charge a 'pure money-making scam'.

Looking for Consistent Phone Plan Pricing? Save with T-Mobile's 5-Year Guarantee
Wouldn't it be nice to have one of your monthly expenses remain stable for a while? Phone plans have seemed tumultuous recently, which is why T-Mobile's 5-year price guarantee with new Experience plans was such a surprise when it was announced earlier this year. With costs increasing on everything, and knowing that phone plans often come with strings attached, we've looked into the details of this deal so you can start saving on your next phone plan. T-Mobile's price guarantee applies to the Experience plans, but not the Essentials plans. The first tier is Experience More, which starts at $90 per month for a single line and includes Unlimited Premium data and text. It also offers 60GB of high-speed hotspot data (then unlimited at 3G speeds), Apple TV Plus, Netflix (with ads), Hulu (with ads) and is upgrade-ready every two years. If you need three lines, you'll get the third one free. This plan includes 5-year price protection and is $5 less when you sign up with AutoPay. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. Experience Beyond is the next tier, which starts at $105 per month and offers unlimited talk and text, plus 250GB of high-speed hotspot data (then unlimited at 3G speeds). Every streaming service listed above is included, as well as smartwatch and tablet lines starting at $5 per month. Beginning July 2025, Experience Beyond customers get T-Satellite service included in the plan (Experience More customers can get T-Satellite free through the end of 2025, then pay $10 a month as an add-on). Other perks include upgrade eligibility every year and 30GB of high-speed data in Mexico and Canada. T-Mobile will knock off an extra $5 per month when you sign up for AutoPay, which means you'll pay just $100. Families can sign up for two lines and get the third line free, which can save them up to 20% when switching from other carriers. A quick reminder that the 5-year price guarantee applies only to the Experience plans and doesn't apply to other T-Mobile plans. Looking for more ways to save on your phone bill but aren't sure if this deal is right for you? We've rounded up a list of the best phone plans so you can view all of your options. Why this deal matters T-Mobile's 5-year price guarantee is a great way to have a consistent phone bill that can also save you extra on data fees and subscriptions. Both eligible Experience plans are an extra $5 off when you sign up for AutoPay. With so many price increases on other basics, this is a great deal for anyone who wants to save on a recurring monthly expense.
