Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Notice of enforcement sent 2 years after the alleged contravention date
« on: December 28, 2024, 09:53:42 pm »
Hi all,
I am looking for some advice regarding a Notice of enforcement I have recently received from Newlyn for money I allegedly owe to the London Borough of Hounslow.
The notice, sent to me on the 20th of December 2024, states that a warrant of control dated 15/11/2025 for Non payment of Penalty Charge Notice has been obtained. The alleged contravention is that of failing to comply with a sign indicating that vehicular traffic must pass to the specified side of the sign. The alleged contravention took place almost two years ago on 05/01/2023.
I am now being asked to pay £280, of which £205 is the amount I apparently owe and £75 is the compliance stage fee.
As the alleged contravention took place two years ago, I have no recollection of it. I can’t remember if I paid the PCN, as I certainly can’t seem to find any evidence of payment as of right now.
The only thing I can think of is around the time that this contravention allegedly took place, I had moved to a different house. While I understand that this may have somehow cause the letters to be sent to my old address, I fail to see how that would have caused a 2 year delay.
I have been given a deadline of 02/01/2025 by Newlyn to respond.
Any advice around this would be much appreciated. Many thanks in advance.
