Border Force Fines

Good morning all I am hoping to pick someones brains.

Had a bus with a trailer on coming from Tilburg to London on November 9th 2018

This morning I received border force fine for 1800.00 for the 3 that managed to get into the back of the trailer while the driver had to pee over 70km from calais - they were discovered as he checked in at calais. It was a sleeper bus and the trailer was secured when it left the venue in Tilburg.

does anyone know if the border force can leave it this long?

Thanks in advance all!

£1800 is not bad for three, you could appeal it but it will probably work out more in the long run, at 70km from Calais I am guessing it was the last services in Belgium an illegal hotspot, if coming from Tilburg then stopping anywhere after Antwerp is taking a risk.

Considering you can fined £2000 per person, possibly best not to rock the boat

Tell them to knock it off the amount they should be fined,for letting seven n half thousand land on s coast this year?
Has there been any previous contact,seems bit long to wait,not like they’ve anything better to do these days?
