hi is there any update on this please?
Hi Ray, read the message above posted by Hippocrates. Might be able to get out of it with that response. This also means having to most likely have the council deny your first appeal and going to the tribunal. It is also best to argue you did not see the signs due to a large van infront so there was not enough warning and when making the turn, there is not enough time to read the signage without stopping in the middle of the road or doing an unsafe procedure. Arguing also that you turned in due to a safety issue works too but most likely they'll reject it as the councils are trying to find ways to get money out of the working people.

(v)that, if the penalty charge is not paid before the end of the 28 day period, an increased
charge may be payable.
Clearly, this refers to Para. 4 (8 ) (iii):
(iii)that the penalty charge must be paid before the end of the period of 28 days beginning
with the date of the notice;
Therefore, it follows that the statement: "If you fail to pay the Penalty Charge or make representations before the end of a period of 28 days beginning with the date of service of this notice an increased charge of £240 may be payable” adds to the lack of clarity by its omission. Even on its own, whether the required information was included or not, it is also arguable that it conflates the two periods using the word "or" which many would view as being conjunctive. Furthermore, even if the statement were to be interpreted disjunctively, there is still no clarity due to the missing information. So, it follows that it cannot possibly be interpreted disjunctively."
If you follow the post you can see he won an appeal. He linked it with a GDrive too:
Have a read and see if your letter has the same exact wording
