I suspect it is a case of 'letting sleeping dogs lie'!

BUT, in case some muppet decides to blow dust off old cases (we've seen it before)

Preserve all the paperwork - PCNs, printoffs of reps,acknowledgements, status history screenshots, etc. and keep it all safe somewhere.

I'm afraid Bristol are complete Scheiße when it comes to admin of representations. There was a phone number issue and it seems instead of acknowledging this, they just let matters slide as you have found out.

See Regulation 8 (9) & (10) of the regulations here: -
https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2013/1783/regulation/8/made
As you can see they are way over the 56 day limit to respond

All of them £69 outstanding still.

Thanks for your interest!

What is the online status of each PCN on Bristol's website?

Good evening kind folk,

What are the time limits related to the PCN process?  These are all related to the same vehicle HT05FNN (where they seem not able to identify the make of vehicle).

I have 5 (five) PCNs from 2023 where the representation / appeal has simply not been acknowledged and the PCN remains frozen at £69:
BS55274696, date of offence 31/7/23, date of posting 22/8/23, date of appeal 2/9/23
BS55675675, date of offence 19/8/23, date of posting 12/9/23, date of appeal 21/9/23
BS55996511, date of offence 6/9/23, date of posting 3/10/23, date of appeal 15/10/23
BS56005394, date of offence 7/9/23, date of posting 3/10/23, date of appeal 15/10/23
BS56780074, date of offence 20/10/23, date of posting 20/11/23, date of appeal 23/11/23
All appeals where based on the paid phone number issue, and many others have been dealt with from a similar time period.

The sixth is slightly more interesting.  BS5133782A offence date 11/1/23. First communication was a charge certificate posting date 17/3/23.  Order for recovery due date of 15/8/23, no date of posting.  TE9 submitted 10/8/23.  Then PCN for same from BCC posting date 4/10/23.  Appealed 18/10/23.  This is the complete correspondence list.  Nothing heard since.

Surely these are all outside of time limits now?  Can somebody please clarify where I stand with these?

Many thanks for any help,
R.
