Thanks for the advice.
I rang TFL customer service on 0343 2221234 and was told to ring 0844 5448458, which says it costs £5 per minute.
I then searched online for a PCN query number and found 0343 2223333, which worked.
They will send me the video, and a copy of the PCN letter. I was first told to look online for this, but only found the bare data. I had to insist that I wanted the full letter, and that is being sent.
I was also told that the PCN is on hold, and to ring them if the stuff had not arrived by 10 September. I asked for the discount back and was told to raise that if/when I am going to pay.
I will upload as soon as I get anything.

Hello
The date of the incident was 8 July 2024.
I found an enforcement notice dated 12 August at my home after being away for 2 weeks, referring to a PCN “batched” on 11 July.
I never received the PCN. I live in a flat with a separate front door from the other flats in the building, so post is sometimes delivered (by Royal Mail as well as by others) to the wrong door.
I have off street parking in front of the house, reached over a dropped pavement.
That stretch of Clapham Road is an all times bus lane, which also has a marked cycle path.
I believe that I am allowed to cross the bus lane to reach my property, and my own practice is to cross opposite the entrance, drive a bit further parallel to the pavement, and then reverse in. Going in forward would be difficult for the parking area, but more importantly it would be dangerous to reverse out across the pavement with no view of it.
I have been living there for 6 years, and have never had any PCNs. A camera has recently (not sure exactly when) been installed to cover this stretch of road, but I have not received any PCNs when I have been driving.
On this occasion I was not driving, and the driver entered the bus lane about 2 houses before our entrance, which is between the white topped pillars – photo 1. The reason for entering the bus lane early is that it is safer because of the frequent cyclists in the bus lane – although there were none on this occasion. Photo 3 shows the car stopped and about to reverse into the entrance.
I need help with my representations in two respects. The non-receipt of the PCN, which has increased the penalty from £80 to £160, and a challenge to the penalty because of the need to enter the bus lane to get to my property. I have until 9 Sept to make representations.
I give below links to the following:
