How can a bailiff be pursuing my debt for an outstanding Penalty Charge Notice?
At the final stage of enforcement for any outstanding Penalty Charge Notice (or PCN) debt – whether it be the full sum or partial debt – the Issuing Authority can apply for the debt to be registered at the Traffic Enforcement Centre (or TEC – see contact details below), which is part of Northamptonshire County Court. Once registered, the debtor is given one last chance to declare lack of knowledge, lack of appeal response or payment made before a warrant is issued. If the debt is still not paid and no declaration is made, it results in the Issuing Authority obtaining a warrant from TEC, which then gets sent to a chosen bailiff company for enforcement action.
