You qualified for a registered Oxford ZEZ discount or exemption (Blue Badge, resident, disabled tax class or business)
The Oxford ZEZ offers discounts and exemptions for groups such as Blue Badge holders, residents of the zone, vehicles in a disabled tax class, certain businesses and health or care workers. Most must be registered in advance (around 10 working days). If you were registered and entitled, the charge should not have applied — quote your registration.
