Upon reviewing a TE9 form, it raises a pertinent question: if you were unaware of the fine, how could you be expected to know the details? The letter provides the penalty reference, which should suffice for the court to access the relevant particulars without needing to request them from you.

I have enquired about the regulations that permit the establishment of a payment plan to stop the enforcement. I will provide this information as soon as I have confirmed the specifics.

Thank you Pressman, that is very kind of you to take the time.

The Notices of Enforcement are dated 20/07/2024. These notices have to give you seven clear days to pay up. Yours have to be paid by 23:59 on 09/08/2024. Which is unusually generous from Marston. So let's make sure all is in proper order.

Please phone the Traffic Enforcement Centre (TEC) at Northampton County Court, Tel: 0300-123 1059, Monday am if possible.

For each PCN please find out the date the warrant was issued by the TEC, and whether the warrant was re-issued with a new address and when? Please report back. The TEC is open at 09:00 to 17:00. But phone earlier rather than later. The PCN numbers are the reference numbers beginning BS on the Notices of Enforcement.

It won't cost you any more money to submit Out of Time applications. So you might as well have a go. However it's hard to know what you can put on the OOT that helps explain why you are late. A six year out of date address for the RK is very hard to explain.

If Bristol object then your applications will be rejected. And it is likely financially unviable to try, or even if you might be able, to get that rejection reversed. So it's vital to maximise you chances of success with the OOT applications, which is why I referred you to Bailiff Advice Online. I still believe it would be best to get advice from them.

What's the value of the car?

To respond to your PM.

Posting on here won't damage your case. There's no need to be concerned. The only information you need to redact is your name and address.

This is about getting you back into the appeal process which will require successful Out of Time applications to get the warrants revoked. And if that cannot be done then how to minimise the damage.

Whether it's five years or six years since you moved is not really the issue. The bottom line is that when you moved you assert that you sent the change of RK address to the DVLA. But have you any proof?

The bottom line is that the change was not processed and it seems you didn't follow that up. From the Council's point of view they served their PCNs and associated documents on the person and the address held by the DVLA. It's not their fault that the DVLA info was out of date.

I think it might be best to  submit a late representation to the Council in parallel to anything else. They're no longer under any obligation to consider it, but they might so it's worth a try. A representation pointing out that that you did submit a change of address to the DVLA in month/year xxxx, that was before the alleged contraventions occurred. It wasn't your fault that it wasn't processed.

Had you actually received the first PCN for the 18th Feb 2023 contravention then you would have known about the Clean Air Zone and wouldn't have contravened it again. It's unfair to pursue charges against you when you have not received any of the statutory notices due to circumstances which were not within your control. Terribly, sorry, won't do it again etc etc. Please use your discretion and cancel the PCNs and please do not oppose my Out of Time applications.

Perhaps HCA might help draft something for you? He's good at that sort of letter.

Simply, the NoE states:

If you don't pay or agree a payment plan on time we will visit you..[and levy the Enforcement Stage fee].

Neil, there's been a notable change in the advice. What legislation makes the agreement legality binding?

HCA stated that agreeing on a payment plan stops enforcement. However, the current advice now indicates that such an agreement only prevents a visit from enforcement officers.

To support the OP, we need to establish an accurate legal position regarding the impact of enforcing a payment plan in this context.
