Greenwich Council PCN - 52m - 6 PCNs issued for same offence

Failing to comply with prohibition on certain types of motor
vehicles - 52m
Hi there, I have been issued 6 PCNs with the following dates:
1/5, 19/5, 20/5, 21/5, 22/5, 23/5
I have taken this route many times on my commute to work for
years, but I was not aware that a LTZ scheme was introduced. I
did not receive the initial PCN for the PCN on 1/5 and have
since received a charge certificate for which I will need to
file a statutory declaration that I never received the initial
fine.
For the rest of the PCNs, I made formal appeals stating I did
not know about the restriction on motor vehicles and found it
unfair to be fined 6 times for the same thing, I would be
willing to pay one fine, but not 6, but every single appeal was
denied and my only option is London tribunals now, I’m wondering
how should I approach and will it be likely that I would be able
to pay for the first PCN and the following to be cancelled?
Since 5 PCNs were for consecutive days in a row.
I have attached a PCN and a notice of rejection of
representation, I used the same appeal for all of the PCNs.
Thank you!

On what date did you receive the second ? It it was after the
date of the last PCN, then you could appeal on 'disproportionate
penalty' based on the fact that you only became aware you were
in contravention when the first PCN arrived in the post.
Of course this means you'd have to take them to London
Tribunals, so no discount. A pity you didn't come on here before
submitting your reps to the council.

The PCN is missing mandatory information as provided at Para. 4
(8 ) (v) of
HTML https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukla/2003/3/section/4/enacted
(v) that, if the penalty charge is not paid before the end of
the 28 day period, an increased charge may be payable;
Clearly, this refers to Para. 4 (8 ) (iii):
(iii)that the penalty charge must be paid before the end of the
period of 28 days beginning with the date of the notice;
