Ok, that sounds the likely root of the problem. Are you able to confirm how quickly you updated the V5C address following that move (assuming you did)?

There is a route by which to get the PCN reset back to the start but it isn't an automatic right and will likely rely on you being able to justify not receiving the earlier stage notices. Moving address around the time of the contravention can be such justification but your case would be undermined if there was a significant delay before updating your registered address.

Pending getting the relevant forms completed sometimes we recommend paying the bailiff as this stops the charges increasing and the payments are refundable if your application is successful. Others are more knowledgeable on this bit so wait for further input.

I updated it in July I believe but I do not know exactly when

Was it correct on or around June 2024? And/or did you also move around then? The address held by the DVLA in respect of that vehicle at that time is where all the previous notices will have gone.

I moved address on 22 June 2024 and the alleged contravention took place on 27 June 2024. I believe I didn't update the V5C in this period of time

First thing to check, is the address on your V5C (logbook) 100% correct?

Yes it's correct. I moved address on February and updated it.

received a "Notice of Enforcement" letter from a company called Newlyn PLC saying I owe £280 (including £75 compliance fee) for an unpaid Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) from London Borough of Hounslow.

The alleged contravention is for “Failing to comply with a prohibition on certain types of vehicle (motor vehicles)” on 27/06/2024. They say a Warrant of Control was issued on 25/06/2025.

Here’s the issue:

I don’t remember committing this offence at all.

This apparently happened over a year ago, yet this is the first time I’m hearing about it.

I don’t recall getting any letters or PCNs about this before—this is the first notice I’ve seen.

Why would they send me this now, and can they really enforce this over a year later?
I’ve checked and Newlyn PLC seems like a legit enforcement company, and the letter looks genuine.

What should I do here? I don’t want to pay for something I don’t even remember, but I also don’t want bailiffs at my door.

Anyone dealt with this before?
