This is how the points get added to your licence apparently - I would welcome comment if anyone else knows if this really is how it works … and if it does - how long before the loop hole is closed.

If you get a fixed penalty notice through the post which also carries penalty points the computer system first sends you a demand for the cash .
When you have paid, it then sends a demand to return your licence for endorsement.
It cannot handle the licence endorsement and the payment at the same time, and it cannot process the points part of the system until the financial section is complete.
If you overpay the fixed penalty, it must issue and send a refund cheque for the overpayment. Therefore, overpay the fixed penalty by sending a cheque for the full amount plus £1.
The computer will then automatically generate a refund cheque for the over-payment and send it to you.
Do not cash this refund cheque - DUMP IT.
The system then remains ‘open’ and cannot generate the ’send your licence for endorsement’ demand part of the programme.
It does, however, record your payment of the fixed penalty, so it does not trigger the ‘follow-up unpaid fine’ stage.
As there is no human intervention, the system will leave you alone, since it has got your money, which is the primary objective!

Pity it isn't true then I could really f**k the system.

But from - Paying a Speeding Fine | Speeding Fines

Is it true that if I overpay my Fixed Penalty the computer system will not be able to endorse my licence?

No. Before a Fixed Penalty is processed, you will have to submit your driving licence. If you do not do so, the payment will be returned. If you pay the wrong amount, again, it will be returned. In both cases, the matter will then be referred to Court as you have failed to comply with the terms of the conditional offer. This could then result in a higher penalty.

Thanks Kev I could not find anything on it whether it was true or a hoax.

Usual things apply: If it sounds too good to be true...
That story's been floating around for a good few years now.

It's on Snopes BaZa; has been circulating for a few years now.
I find Snopes the most reliable for urban legends...

Shame though...

I'd not heard of Snopes before, looks really good, on me favourites now. I'll be giving that a good scan over later.
