Thank you all for your help. It is indeed the V5C that's incorrect so I think I'll give it a shot with the fact I didn't receive the PCN/NTO. Just to add, this site is a great resource with a wealth of knowledge of how to deal with the parasites, cheers!

OP, I suggest you:
Check the V5C for the vehicle. If it's as per the notices then the mistake regarding names is the company's;
Ask the accountant why correspondence has been left lying for over a month. 

IMO, if the V5C (and therefore the DVLA) address is as per the notices then the company may not distance themselves from what appears to be their accountant's* c**k-up by claiming that they(the company) didn't receive the NTO.

OP, other than the above checks there's nothing that the owner can do at present. Except reinstate the street name which has been redacted.
The Witness Statement (TE9),  has the reason "I did not receive the PCN", there is no box for NtO. Now this may be that TEC did not understand the difference between PCN and NtO, but the OP would not be lying if this box was ticked, would he ?

I don't think you can do anything apart from pay, looking at your narrative, and the documents. The Notice to Owner has been ignored, so the council have, after the statutory interval, served a Charge Certificate. The option to submit reps against the Notice to Owner has expired, (you have 28 days from its service to submit them).

You can submit a Witness Statement when the council register the debt at the Traffic Enforcement Centre, (the 'court') and serve an Order for Recovery. One of the reasons on the form is "I did not receive the PCN" which seems to fit your circumstances.

The OfR and CC will be cancelled, and you can then appeal or pay the NtO.

Hello everyone and thanks for your time. Today, my accountant emailed me two letters sent to the company's registered (the accountant's) office. This is the first I knew about any parking issue, no ticket on windscreen ever seen; the first letter is dated nearly 6 weeks after the alleged offence. The second letter (dated a week ago) states the time as 1811 but the first says 1812. Both have the company name wrong, e.g: Mycompany Limited is spelt as Mycodpany Limited. It would be easy just to pay it but if it's possible to have a go back, I'm game! Any info gratefully received.  ;)
