Charge certificate not registered with TEC 2.5 months later

I never received the initial PCN from tower hamlets council, I
did however receive a charge certificate on December 23rd. I am
waiting for them to register the charge with TEC so that I can
appeal it.
It’s been 2.5 months now, 2+ months of checking each week if it
has been registered with the TEC and this is just wasting my
time and drawn out stress.
What can I do now? Is there a time frame that they must register
it by?
I appreciate any help, thank you.

Clearly the council are getting into the realm of "abuse of
process", and unfairness with such an extended interval. You
could try phoning them to see when they might be registering the
debt. There may be a regulation somewhere that forbids them to
register after a certain time has passed, but I'm not expert in
that. You could try asking TEC if there is a time limit on
councils because there certainly is a time limit on the poor old
motorist ! Finally, you could raise a complaint with the council
too. They must have a complaints process and must deal with
complaints raised within it.

Saw this whilst checking the status of mine and having a look
around. We are in pretty much the same situation with my CC
issued one day before yours.
I don't know if you have had anything added to the status of
yours recently but I have had the following logged in recent
days on the portal but no change to the amount:

What makes you think you could submit a statutory
declaration/witness statement anyway?
As you received a PCN/NTO, then if you made formal reps and
received a response your only route was to appeal to the
adjudicator, nothing to do with TEC. However, if you made formal
reps to the authority but did not receive a response then you
would have grounds to make a submission to TEC.
While we're waiting, pl fill in the background and post whatever
docs you have.
