Brent parking ticket chased bt Newlyn
« on: »
Hi,

I had a PCN from Brent Council on 26 Oct 2024. I appealed against the ticket and the notice of rejection was sent to me dated 20 Jan 2025 which reset the penalty to £65
However, we were on holiday in Dec 2024 and when we returned on 7 Jan 2025 our home had had a pipe burst and we were given temporary accommodation by the insurer while they progressed our claim and start the restoration work. We had been living in hotels and apartments since 7 JAn 2025. So we never received the notice when it was delivered.
Another Form TE9 which increased the fine to £205 to pay by 15/04/25. We did not receive this either.
I only received a Notice of Enforcement from Newlyn dated 6 May 2025 when I went to the house to check in May and the postman gave us a bundle of old post.
I emailed the council on 23 May 2025 explaining the situation and requesting to revert back to the original so I can pay off.

I received an email this morning dated 5 June 2025 (today is 15 June 2025) saying thats its with the enforcement agency and asking me to deal with them. In the interim the enforcemnent agency Newlyn visited my property on 11 June 2025 and left a letter asking for £515 else will remove my goods from my property. there is nothing ouside my property as we are not living there. What options do I have now. PLease help.

Are you resident at the property now?

What was the PCN for, we need to know in order to determine which legislation and procedures apply.

All procedures ultimately lead to the Traffic Enforcement Centre in the form of an Out of Time application to submit a Witness Statement/Statutory Declaration(depending on the legislation).

Let's be clear: your insurer would have accommodated you locally so exactly why you didn't manage your mail is strange at first glance.

So, in addition to the above:
When were you relocated;
For how long;
Are you the registered keeper of the vehicle?

No I am still not resident at the property but hoping to go back later this month or early next.
The PCN was for a parking ticket
Our insurers initually accomodated us in hotels which would change every week depending on prices and availability of the hotel by the time the authorisation to extend would come through. Sometime in Feb they moved us to a rental property. However because they were unsure how long this could take and the short rental prices in my local area being very high (£8000/month) and they had a £25k cap on the policy for accomodation they moved us to an accomodation 6 miles away.
Yes, i am the registered keeper.

It's a shame you didn't pay before the bailiff visit as that added £235.

I suggest you contact https://bailiffadviceonline.co.uk - for a modest fee they may get you out of this with a well worded out of time statement as you do have extenuating circumstances.

???????

Why would the postman have anything other than that day's mail? They can't enter your property to scoop up unopened mail. And what a coincidence on the first day in 4 months that you'd visited the property.

Why did your postman have 'old post'?
