As you don't seem to have updated the logbook you don't have
much of a case. You could provide details of dates of mail
redirection.
The out of time process is designed to cover those who get PCNs
during the window of moving and updating the logbook, among
other things such as no-fault address errors, but the law
requires speedy logbook updating to where the registered keeper
is.

Since the contravention was less than two weeks from our date of
move, surely we couldn't be expected to have updated the
logbook?
Also, now we are slightly paranoid - what if we accidentally
committed more contravention in the meantime and have more
tickets in our name coming up? How do we check even?

If it's 2 weeks you have a very good case because you don't have
to volunteer the tardy logbook status.

This is what I wrote:

We sold our flat to Islington Council on 13/06/2025 and moved to
our current address on that date.
The alleged contravention occurred on 01/07/2025, less than two
weeks after our move.
At that time, our vehicle logbook had not yet been updated with
our new address.
We had arranged Royal Mail redirection from 07/06/2025. However,
without our knowledge or any notification,
Royal Mail cancelled the redirection. We only became aware of
this recently, which explains why we did not
receive any correspondence relating to this PCN.
During this period, we did receive other correspondence from
Islington Council regarding our former
property, sent to our new address, which led us to believe that
addressing was not an issue.
We have never previously failed to respond to or pay a PCN, and
a number of PCNs paid or contested by
us are recorded on Islington Council’s PCN portal. Had we
received the PCN or Notice to Owner, we would
have paid or made representations in the normal way.
We therefore respectfully request permission to file the
statutory declaration out of time.

UPDATE
We wrote to TEC and the council and the council has agreed to
re-issue the ticket. Have not had any communication since then
but no letters from bailiff etc. so looks like they've been
asked to back off.
As usual, thanks for the help.
