The supporting camera picture showed Louise Matz's car on a vehicle transporter in Enfield, North London.

The Mayor of London's money-making Ultra Low Emission Zone has gone down like a lead balloon with many motorists since it was expanded in late August last year.

In January, she decided enough was enough and sold her Ulez non-compliant Kia for a compliant Nissan Micra. The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency duly notified her that she was no longer the owner of the Kia. Unsure as to whether she had any outstanding Ulez charges, she kept open her account so they could be paid from her bank account.

But, bizarrely, TfL said she was still liable for the fine. This is because she had not removed the Kia from her auto-pay account at the time it was caught on camera. I have taken up Louise's case with TfL and will report back when I get a response. Hopefully, TfL will see the madness of its ways and refund Louise the money it had no right to take from her.

Although space prevents me from showing all these splendid examples of architectural banking excellence, three caught my eye. The first is Royal Bank of Scotland's flagship branch in St Andrew Square, Edinburgh – put forward by 49-year-old actuary Kirsten Watt who lives in Perth. The former home of merchant Sir Lawrence Dundas, the building was acquired by RBS just under 200 years ago. Its beauty means it is an integral part of walking tours around the new town. Whether it remains integral to RBS's ever-dwindling branch network, only time will tell.
