Issues with some online forms

We are having technical issues with some online forms, which means a small number of customers may experience problems when carrying out some transactions, including renewing or buying parking permits.

Most forms are working, but if you have any issues please try again in five minutes or call Contact Islington on 020 7527 2000 (please be aware that the lines may be busy due to high call volumes). We are looking at this as a priority and hope to get this up and running as quickly as we can. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.
