Representation against a
Congestion Charge Notice.
If you feel that a mistake
has been made in issuing the Congestion Charge you should write
to TfL outlining your complaint. This process is referred to as
making a representation.
As many motorists are confused by a Parking Charge Notice, you will find that enclosed with your PCN is an insert provided by TfL which is any easy to understand leaflet which provides useful advice on how to pay the PCN, and how to make a representation.
For making a representation, you will need to use the form also provided with your PCN, and you should ensure that you provide as much evidence as you can to support your case.
To asssist further, Transport for London have provided detailed guidance and advice on the representation and appeals process which also outlines those cases that are likely to be accepted or rejected at representation. Details can be found in the following links:

and in particular:

In order to avoid the situation becoming very stressful, you may
wish to pay the Congestion Charge and still make representation.
You are able to do this. You have
just 28 days from the date of the
notice in which to make your representations.
Transport for London will then consider your complaint and they
must write to you with one of the following two formalnotices:
Notice of Acceptance
Notice of Rejection. (Details of these notices are provided on the following page)
