Newcastle City Council Issued me with a farcical PCN in early November 2025 and to be fair I just ignored it, I so wish I could get a judge to look at the video as it is so pathetic, I intially thought I made a mistake in Newcastle city center driving as it is a nightmare and designed to make you fail - but it was not - my problem is I completely ignored the letters and it is now with the Bailiffs and my research indicates that there is literally nothing that can be done now which is sad as like Croydon council - Newcastle are trying to use the motorist to fill the void in the budget overspend with outrageous PCN claims - I cant use the T7 form as I dont meent any of the criteria, so unless anyone knows a potential way round this, it looks like I will have to pay these criminals £190.00 - I did contemplate letting the bailifs keep coming out and telling them to f-off and hope the council then try to get a CCJ which would then hopefully give me the ability to show the court the video one concern i have regarding this is that I own my flat outright and dont want them to put a lean on the property

£190 now, then another £235 if they have to visit. As regards your suggested plan, this would work out as an additional debt of approx. £33 per letter.

These Regulations make provision for recovery of fees and disbursements from debtors by enforcement agents in relation to the procedure for taking control of goods under Schedule 12 to the Tribunal...
legislation.gov.uk
    (and Schedule)


The matter has already been reviewed by a court, the Traffic Enforcement Centre who authorised the warrant of control.

IMO, your best bet is to see if the £75 Enforcement fee, which was added when the Notice of Enforcement was issued, could be saved. We need to see the Notice of Enforcement.

But as per John U.K post everything.

Just to add that a CCJ is not possible under the legislation. Do also be aware that bailiffs can seize goods standing on the public highway. Essentially, this means your car, which they can sell to get the money.

I have enclosed images of the latest letter ( front & back ) from the Bailiffs, and video of the exact incident that the PCN was issued, as previously mentioned I assumed it was from a mistake I had made in Newcastle town centre, but upon viewing the video it was actually on the ourtskirts of Newcastle, I recall the incident and my vehicle made an almighty bang noise and lots of warning lights came on the dashboard and my immediate reaction was to pull to the side of the road ( as can be seen by my severe swerve to exit the main road ) as soon as I stopped the warning ligths went off and I drove back on to the main road appox 13-15 seconds later as can be seen in the video - when I called Newcastle City Council ( I had not viewd the video at this point ) she was watching it and said ohh yes you pulled right outside of a school, but the incident was at 19:40 pm so am not sure how this is even relevant - a terrible council to deal with, they said I can only use the Te7 Form but it is completely pointless as I do not meet any of the strict criteria - I am prepaired to fight this if I have a good chance of stopping this council stealing money from motorists who did nothing wronng so your opinions are very much welcomed.
