Include also the fact that the PCN was served out of time and is thus unenforceable.

Date of alleged contravention = 13 December 2025
Last date for service = 9 January 2026
Presumed date of service = 12 January 2026

I think the PCN misstates the period after which the council may increase the penalty charge from £160 to £240.

Under the LLA 2003, the PCN must state (amongst other things):

(iii)that the penalty charge must be paid before the end of the period of 28 days beginning with the date of the notice;

(iv)that if the penalty charge is paid before the end of the period of 14 days beginning with the date of the notice, the amount of the penalty charge will be reduced by the specified proportion;

(v)that, if the penalty charge is not paid before the end of the 28 day period, an increased charge may be payable;

Your PCN states that the date from which an increased charge may be payable is 28 days from date of service of the PCN, instead of 28 days beginning with the date of the notice.

Looks more like a TFL PCN to me - in which case, yes, there's no automatic access to the video footage.

You need to asap given TFL a call to request access to this - they will post it to you on a DVD.  They usually offer to put the PCN timeline on hold while they do this so make sure to double check about this when you call, especially with the slower post at this time of year.

The OP asked for my help to share her documents - please see below:

That link won't work without the PCN number and vehicle registration. Best for you would be to link to a copy of the PCN so it can be checked for errors which would render it void.  But if that's beyond your ability, just provide the PCN number and registration for now.

I think I managed to access it without the code a couple of days ago (hope I'm remembering the right case!). I couldn't see anything helpful in the video if so
