The name and address of the person to whom I disposed of it: [buyer's name], [buyer's address].

London Tribunals (Road User Charging Adjudicators)

Re: Penalty charge notice XX12345678, vehicle AB12 CDE

Appellant's statement
1. I appeal against the penalty charge notice above, which relates to Wed, 2 September 2026. I made representations to Transport for London (TfL), which served a notice of rejection dated Tue, 20 October 2026. This appeal is within 28 days of its service.
2. My grounds are as follows.
3. The charge payable for the use of this vehicle on this occasion was paid at the time and in the manner required by the charging scheme. The payment reference is XXXX-0000. (reg 13(3)(b) of the Road User Charging (Enforcement and Adjudication) (London) Regulations 2001.)
The authority gave these reasons for rejection: TfL says no payment was found for this vehicle on this date. Those reasons do not answer the ground I rely on, which is one of the grounds in regulation 13(3) that the adjudicator is required to consider.
I enclose:
1. TfL payment receipt
2. Bank statement line
I believe the facts stated in this statement are true.
