So I emailed them as I got a charge certificate. They have now
agreed to reduce it back to the initial amount and given me 14
days to pay redu Ed amount but I still want to argue for the
chance to make an online representation. See correspondence
below:
From croydon in an email
" Penalty Charge Notice: CR2198351A
Vehicle Registration Mark: OE73GDV
Date of Contravention: 21/01/2025
Location of Contravention: Lennard Rd, Croydon by
Oakfield Rd
Contravention Code Description: Failing to comply with a
restriction on vehicles entering a pedestrian zone (Camera
Enforcement)
Thank you for writing to us.
It is now too late for you to challenge, or continue
challenging, your PCN. The PCN we sent you gave you 28 days to
challenge your PCN, but this time has now passed.
We sent you a PCN because our CCTV camera evidence shows your
vehicle entering a pedestrian zone when it was not allowed to.
There is a white, rectangular sign which says 'Pedestrian zone'
and shows the restrictions.
A PCN that has not been fully paid progresses through a series
of stages and increasing charges. Although your case has
progressed to an increased charge, we have reduced the charge
for a limited period to the amount shown below.
Here are the details about your case, which follows a strict
legal process:
We sent you a PCN which explained that you could: pay the
discount charge within 14 days;pay the standard charge within 28
days (if you missed the discount period); orformally challenge
your PCN within 28 days. The PCN also explained that, if you did
nothing, the charge would increase from £130.00 to £195.00 and
that you would receive a Charge Certificate explaining this.
We sent you the Charge Certificate.
You can view CCTV evidence of your case online at
www.viewmypcn.co.uk/croydon
You have these choices:
You can pay the reduced charge of £65.00 if your payment reaches
us within 14 days of the date of this letter.The Charge
Certificate we sent you explained that you needed to pay
£195.00. You had 14 days to do this.If you take neither of these
payment options, we will apply to the County Court to recover
the £195.00 - plus court costs - from you. "
My response below
"Dear Team,
Thank you for your reply, I have been unwell and therefore
unable to action this.
Thank you for returning the pcn charge to the original amount
however, the point I made in my email is that I was unable to
submit an appeal in the given period because (according to
previous correspondence from you) your systems had already
recorded the response from lease company as an appeal and
therefore did not accept any attempts I made to submit my
appeal.
My argument here is that that is in itself an unfair practice as
it robbed me of the right to make the appeal. Therefore I ask
that you reset this to allow me to submit my appeal as I
intended originally.
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Yours faithfully,"
Any further advice?
