Free Traffic Legal Advice

The only avenue to getting the matter reverted is to submit an Out-of-Time Witness Statement, or a Statutory Declaration.  Which one depends under what legislation the original PCN was issued, but the contravention is for failing to comply with a prohibition on motor vehicles, so it looks like you were in London and passed a "Flying Motorbike" sign. The legislation used would be the London Local Authorities and Transport for London Act 2003. This means you will need to submit an OOT Statutory Declaration.

Because this will be OOT, the council are allowed to object to it, and invariably do so, so you need a bullet-proof statement on the SD on why you didn't receive the PCN. It is here that I get a bit puzzled, because the bailiff letter says the contravention date is the 13th Oct 2023, but you moved house on 23rd November 2023, well over a month after the contravention date. They only have 28 days to issue the PCN so it should have arrived before the 23rd, I reckon.  Is your vehicle leased or hired ?

Here is the TEC website forms page
https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/traffic-enforcement-centre-forms
The forms are PE2 and PE3.
PE3 is the actual Statutory Declaration, and PE2 is to apply to submit the SD out-of-time. This is what the council can obhect to by stating all the statutory enforcement documents were sent to the address recorded by DVLA for the V5 for the vehicle

And finally, the above procedure is totally independent of whether you have paid the bailiffs or not, so with the amount outstanding being the minimum amount before bailiffs visits, I would recommend you pay them, because it is now well known that TEC are taking much longer than before at processing SDs, and in that time the bailiffs could make a visit to you and add on a visit fee. If you win your OOT, the matter is reverted to the PCN which you can then pay or appeal. Any surplus you are entitled to get refunded.

Pay the debt before the date stated on page 2. This caps your liability.

The next stage would see them add a further eye-watering £275 to the debt.

Give us their reference number and your VRM, we can then look at the PCN log on the council's website without which you and we would be blundering in the dark. In practice you get one bite at the TEC cherry so get all facts - essentially dates and notices- in play.

Also, tell us exactly:
the date stated on your new V5C;
the official date for the end of your occupancy and provide proof.

As you've probably guessed, there's a world of legal difference between you choosing to stay with another person at a different address and ignoring correspondence sent to the address where you were the occupier and not being the occupier and there being a delay in DVLA updating their records.

Not good enough apparently if you just pay and don't submit an OOT! 

WE'll do the detailed stuff, all we need is info.
