Valid postcodes for congestion charge consultation

BoJo has launched a consultation for opinions on what to do with the
Western Extension zone of the London Congestion Charge area
(Kensington/Chesea etc.) :

https://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/roadusers...-your-say.aspx

He wants to know whether to keep it / scrap it or change it.

"Have you say" provides (allegedly) an on-line form to comment.

Unfortunately it responds to my home and work postcodes with a message
"Invalid postcode" and refuses to listen to my views.

I would be grateful for news of any urc'ers who have a valid
postcode !

On a second attempt, it appears to have changed to wanting an email
address and not a postcode (or was it that I needed my specs on the
first time).

It rejected my email address, regardless of which browser I used, even
when I changed it from "mayor@..." to "london@...".

Anyone managed to work it? MAybe I should try my postcode where it asks
for email address, and v/v.

It worked for me just now - it accepted my email address and was happy for
me to provide my Cheshire postcode.

It all worked fine for me.

I commented that the Western zone should be extended to the entire
area within the M25.

But with the discount for residents within the CZ, that means far more
people will find it relatively affordable to take to the car again within
the Zone - thus increasing congestion - AIUI, there are quite a lot of
people in Kensington and Chelsea who are looking forward to cheap access to
the CZ once it is extended.

Abolish the discounts, then.

Or split the zone in different areas ...
