Update:
I called TfL and explained the situation. They have now offered to let me pay the original amount of £80. Thank you!

Contravention code and description: 46: Stopped where prohibited (on a red route or clearway)
Contravention date: 05/02/2025
Location of Contravention: O/S 353-355 EASTERN AVENUE IG2
A Penalty Charge Notice or a Notice to Owner was sent to you on 18/02/2025 which explained that as the person believed to be the owner (or hirer) of the above vehicle, you had 28 days to pay the penalty charge or to make representations as to why you believe it was not payable.
This charge certificate has been served because one of the following applies and the penalty charge was not paid within the period of 28 days beginning on the date of the relevant event.
1. No representations were made in response to the penalty charge notice or notice to owner
We issued a notice of rejection of representations made against the notice to owner and have not been informed of an appeal having been made to the Adjudicator
We issued a Notice of Rejection of the Adjudicator's recommendation
An appeal was made to the adjudicator but was either rejected or withdrawn
5. The incorrect sum has been paid.
As a result, the sum due has now increased by 50%:
Penalty Charge Amount: £160.00 Amount Paid: £0.00
Charge Certificate Increase: £80.00 Payment now Due: £240.00
Full Charge Amount: £240.00

Is the address on your V5C Registration Certificate for your vehicle correct in all detail ? Have you had any mail delivery problems recently ?

That'll be a charge certificate. Not getting a rejection allows you to get this reset but we need to see the materials:

PCN
Your challenge
Charge certificate.

Only redact name and address.

“I challenged a PCN from TfL, but my appeal was refused. However, I didn’t receive any notification about the decision, and now they’ve sent me a letter demanding £240. What should I do now?”
