Interesting arguments, looking forward to the results here!!

Rooting for you flash! Cannot believe this authority bypasses common sense in matters such as this when honest mistakes are evidently made yet the Redbridge push for cash in any case!... Unbelievable!!

Good luck Flash!

Hi Incandescent, Tincombe,

I have only just seen your posts.

I have prepared my wriiten statement as evidence already and hope to post via registered delivery through Royal Mail in the Morning of the 3rd of Aug to arrive by next day.

OP,
I have to make/prepare a defence and send by the 5th of August 2026

Says who?

Sorry, "Have" may have been too strong a word. They write, "If you have already not done so, please sure that any evidence that you rely upon reaches us by"

I have basically outlined the situation of the alleged contravention and have told them that I sent the original appeal through registered delivery, and TFL sent the decision via email and letter, none of which was received, if indeed sent at all. TFL has not provided any proof of this email being sent or for that matter a letter to the same effect.

Hi all, just an update on this case.

As Incandescent said, the case is now being represented to the adjudicators at London Tribunals for a decision. I have to make/prepare a defence and send by the 5th of August 2026. As per normal, my defence will be the same as in the original with the caveat of noticing that it seems there is a string of instances on the internet whereby no email or letter have been received by a string of individuals in similar circumstances and this seems to be a malicious and callous intentions of TFL in a bid to bully individuals into paying them the doubled/tripled fines!!

Rather than accept that their is a fault with their systems, basically it seems TFL cannot handle the shame of defeat in case it stands as a precedent for upcoming cases.

I still believe that they do this on purpose with a bid to gain more money in fines. I'm sure most people will believe they missed the email or letter and just go ahead and pay the inflated addition to the fine.

Received this today:

I'm assuming that it's reverted to original charge before increase.

Thanks
Yes, the Charge Certificate addition (50%) has been removed because it is now cancelled. However the PCN remains extant. I think you can also pay at the discounted rate too.

Afternoon Incandescent and one and all!

Checked the website today and still says £250, but letter said they'll, (the original PCN senders), would get in contact... but alas nothing as of yet. I hope they don't try to send just an imaginary email again from their imaginary servers. Talk about longing things out with these people!

Best to download the form, complete it and send it off. Mail is too uncertain these days. PCN is under Traffic Management Act, so you need the Witness Statement form.

Hi Incandescent, sorry to be a pain... I downloaded form already, but on the Witness statement section, do I just outline what they've written or do I write the reason on a different plain A4 sheet and add with the form? i/e:

•You paid the penalty charge notice in full. You must provide details of the date payment was made,
the method of payment i.e. cash, cheque etc and who the payment was made to. Please note you
may be asked to provide proof of payment upon request.

• You did not receive the notice to owner/penalty charge notice.

• You made representations about the penalty charge notice to the Local Authority within 28 days of
service of the notice to owner but did not receive a reply (rejection notice).

• You appealed against the Local Authority’s decision to reject your representation within 28 days, but
you had no response to your appeal.


..And I assume it's the third paragraph i'm highligting...correct?

Thanks again mate! Appreciate all the help!
NOOO!
You shouldn't outline anything, just tick the appropriate box - which was the second one
You confused yourself and a member here by your flawed terminology > "appealed"

and why didn't you e-mail the form instead of wasting time and money on 'signed for'?

Hi Neil, I did tick the second box, and highlighted the section appropriate on the otherside...(my bad).

I didn't email them because I didn't want them to say they never received it, as they seem to have a lot of email errors! Anyway they've definitely received it by signing for it of which I have proof of receivership.

I've just checked the PCN website and it says this today:

16 April 2026  On Hold: SUS40 - Statutory Declaration Receipt
N/A


I'm assuming it'll now be reviewed.

Sorry Tincombe, I only fret because they seem to slip procedures as they did when they apparently had sent me the email.. which was never received.

I shall be patient.

The form should have been sent to the Traffic Enforcement Centre. At one time they turned round these very quickly, but those days have gone, so it could be some days to go.

I presume you sent the form to TEC, but am puzzled why you mention TfL. If you sent the form to TfL you have cocked things up royally.

Thanks for the reply Incandescent, sorry the PCN was from TFL and no I didn't sens to them. I sent it to the Traffic Enforcement Centre and as per address that was listed on the back of the TE9 form.

Sorry for the confusion mate. Will wait to see when and if they reply then.

Thanks again!

Wow, this makes for interesting reading...Good luck Challenge_cheaters, I'm with you on your principal argument! Hopefully they'll see sense in the matter and nullify PCN.

Yes, 3rd one

• You made representations about the penalty charge notice to the Local Authority within 28 days of

Hi Incandescent, I filled in the form, (TE9), on the 28th of March and posted as "Signed for" via Royal mail tracked along with a letter outlining the fact I never received the email on the failure of representation. So that was over 8 days ago but on the TFL PCN website there's been no change. Would there be any change in the history section saying they've received the TE9 form?

The form has definitely been signed and received by the address it was sent to. I'm wondering now if I should've made an email representation as well alongside physical paper.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance, Bladester.

Been checking PCN on the website everyday lol... still no increase by £10 to £250, wondering how long this process normally takes. Any idea? Is it around 28 days?

Thanks all!
They have no deadline, but cannot begin to collect the debt until they do it, so hopefully not too long.

Woohoo, Morning all, finally today noticed it's gone up by £10 to £250. Took their sweet time. So will either wait for their letter, or can print off the form, tick and send off!!

Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Re: parking fine

Just redact your personal details from the PCN and post the pic of PCN through preffered image site. The pro's here need the Car Reg and PCN number to fully help you, like they did for me! Very knowledgefull folk here, but they need time/date/ID/Code of contravention, (like mine was '62', from PCN), deets to help you quickly.

Good luck Lateman!

There is something else.
If you look at the PCN details on the TfL website, you will find a tab that says 'PCN history' or similar.
That opens a page of all the actions taken by them and can be very useful

Yes thanks Neil, it says "Status history", and I've had a look at that, basically tells me how they've reacted to the PCN since it was issued. I wish they'd sent out a letter in addition to their 'Notification email', then I would've received it and paid them instead of this pallava I'm having to go thru now!...(sigh)
