TfL Blackwall tunnel charge certificate
DIR By: tawnyess

---------------------------------------------------------
Hi - I crossed the Blackwall tunnel 3 times back in oct 25. I
paid for them using my bank card. I received a pcn for one of
the crossings. I responded to it saying I’ve paid them and sent
screenshot of my bank. They replied back saying we need evidence
such as receipt or card number etc. I did not receive any
receipt for any of the crossing I made even though you have to
select email or text on the payment. The only evidence I have is
a payment of £4 I made that day to TfL on my bank app. I just
received a charge certificate of it today. So I checked the
status online. They did receive my further evidence which I
provided a card number but they rejected it 28th nov but I
received no comms of this?
Please advice charge certificate attached [table]

Wait for the PCN to be registered at TEC, then submit a Witness
Statement stating you submitted reps, (your follow on with the
card details), but received no response.

Update. So I made statuary declaration and was sent a letter
that the order for recover be cancelled but not original PCN.
I’ve just received a pack from TfL that they would like to
proceed with its enforcement. There’s so many pages I’ll just
attached the first one if there’s any other important ones to
upload I can do.
I have my bank statement to show I paid on the day but no
receipt. I’ve paid for many crossing haven’t received any
receipts for them.
Do I do anything at this point or can I forward my evidence to
the adjudicator or something ?

Further reading into TfL’s papers. I noticed they attached all
payments for my vehicles. On separate sheet they attached 2
crossings which I paid for on 26/10/25. (Pcn relates to
25/11/25)
On the sheet it says I paid on the 25 and the date selected was
24/ so it’s possible that when paying the crossing I chose 24th
OR I did cross the 24th and I’ll be honest I don’t remember as I
crossed a few times around that time.
My question would be, why they only provided evidence of me
crossing on the 26th and not the one on the 24th if I did cross
then.
This is hard to figure out when you don’t get receipts.
Also another query would be that they had multiple times to tell
me actually the evidence you are providing is for the 24th not
25th. Instead none of the rejection letters on the pack states
that.
Again I mention as I did not receive any receipts I went what
was on my bank statement which shows I made a payment on the
25th
Any case here?

All you can now do is present your side of the case to London
Tribunals incl copies of payment records.
Submission of Witness Statements is only a backstop to get the
process reverted to where it went astray, the original PCN
always remains extant.

Can I submit my case to the tribunals now?
Also does that mean the 50% discount is not available amymore?

Have you got a hearing date ? Under the process, TfL must pass
the papers to London Tribunals who will decide whether TfL win
or you do. TfL must pass on everything, incl your reps. Do you
have a hearing date and case number yet, or any thing at all
from London Tribunals ?

No I’ve only received a massive pack of papers which TfL have
sent me that they are proceeding with the claim to tribunals

So essentially TfL have, by law, passed the case documents to
London Tribunals. If you have nothing else, I would suggest you
contact LT to find out when/if there will be a hearing.
Decisions based on papers never go well so find out if you can
insist on a hearing (which will be by phone or video).
Sorry, but I don't know the detail of the procedure in a case
like yours, so hopefully somebody will post soon with greater
knowledge.
