Challenge your Penalty Charge Notice (PCN)

You can challenge a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) if you think it was given by mistake.

Do not pay the PCN if you want to challenge it. Once you pay, the case is closed and you cannot challenge it.

You must send your challenge as soon as you can. Time limits start from the date the notice or rejection was sent.
