Is Merseyflow run by the council?

Official body

Merseyflow is the toll on the Mersey Gateway and Silver Jubilee bridges, charged by Halton Borough Council and run day to day by a private operator, Emovis. With no booths, each crossing must be paid by midnight the next day, and a missed one becomes a Penalty Charge Notice issued for the council.

What we checked

  • Tolling operator registered in 2008
  • Operator part of the Abertis group
  • Walk-in centre in Runcorn
  • Ratings on other review websites: 1.5/5

Watch out for

  • A resident discount not renewed in time, so your account switches to pre-pay and each crossing is charged.
  • A new car not added to your discount before crossing, which leaves the toll owed for that trip.
  • An unpaid penalty charge passed to enforcement agents, where costs can grow into hundreds of pounds.

Penalty charge for a crossing you paid?

We help you write it, it gets its own public page, and you can have it sent to Merseyflow as a formal letter.

Common customer service questions about Merseyflow

How do I file a complaint about Merseyflow?

Do you have a dispute or a bad customer experience with Merseyflow? Report it through our website to maximize the chance of getting it resolved.

How do I contact Merseyflow customer service?

The Merseyflow call centre number is 01928 878 878, and the general email address is info@merseyflow.co.uk. Merseyflow also has a walk-in centre in Runcorn and an online enquiry route on its website, where you can mark a message as a complaint. Merseyflow says representations against a Penalty Charge Notice cannot be accepted by email, so a PCN challenge goes through its online representation page instead. Have the vehicle registration or your account number ready, and for a PCN, the PCN number.

Penalty charge or account problem to raise? Start your complaint here as well, and we push it out to Merseyflow by email, social media and printed letters.

What happens if I forget to pay the Merseyflow toll?

If a Merseyflow crossing is not paid by midnight the day after crossing, a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) is issued, and an unpaid PCN can be passed on to enforcement agents. Merseyflow takes payment online, in the Merseyflow Quick Pay app, by phone or at the walk-in centre in Runcorn, and crossings can be paid up to 12 months ahead, so a regular driver can avoid missed payments with an account.

Keep the confirmation for each crossing: the payment reference, the date paid and the registration it was paid against. A payment made against the wrong registration or date can lead to a PCN for a crossing that was paid.

How do I challenge a Merseyflow PCN?

A Merseyflow Penalty Charge Notice is challenged by making a representation through the online representation page on the Merseyflow website, because Merseyflow does not accept representations by email. Give the PCN number and the vehicle registration, say why you are challenging it, for example that the crossing was paid, the vehicle had been sold or stolen, the plate was misread or cloned, or the vehicle is covered by an exemption or discount, and attach the evidence.

Do it as soon as the PCN arrives, and keep a copy of what you sent and the date you sent it.

PCN for a crossing you paid in time? Take the challenge through our complaint process: our trained AI opens a case for you and keeps coaching you on what to send Merseyflow next.

Can I appeal a Merseyflow PCN to the Traffic Penalty Tribunal?

Yes: in England, the Traffic Penalty Tribunal decides appeals against Merseyflow Penalty Charge Notices for unpaid crossings of the Mersey Gateway Bridge Crossings. It generally expects Merseyflow to have had the chance to put things right first, so keep a record of every payment, representation and reply.

PCN challenge to put together? We help you write it in minutes, with your payment proof and crossing dates laid out properly.

What do people complain about most at Merseyflow?

Nothing has been reported about Merseyflow here yet. Our research shows what typically goes wrong with free-flow bridge tolls like Merseyflow: crossings that drivers forgot or did not know they had to pay, Penalty Charge Notices for a crossing paid against the wrong registration or date, PCNs that reach a previous keeper after a car was sold, account top-ups and resident or Blue Badge discounts not applied, and enforcement agents chasing a PCN the driver disputes.

Penalty charged for a crossing paid against the wrong date? Be the first to report it and your case opens the record the next Merseyflow driver with the same mix-up can point to.

What happens after I submit my complaint?

Your complaint gets its own public page on Complain.biz and we get to work: we bring it to the attention of Merseyflow through emails, social media, paper complaint letters and other tools at our disposal.

And we stay with it after you file. Our trained AI opens a case file for you and keeps coaching: what to reply, when to push again, and how to escalate if nothing happens.

Can other consumers help me with my Merseyflow complaint?

Yes. We have an active community of consumers, and complaints here are public: people who ran into the same problem with Merseyflow can give you advice or back you up with their own story. A complaint with a community behind it is much harder to overlook.
