PCS parking notice - didn’t receive first letter

Hi,
I’ve received a Paeking Charge Notification Letter stating it has been 28 days since they last wrote to me and the charge hasn’t been paid despite “numerous” attempts to gain payment.
I’ve received a Paeking Charge Notification Letter stating it has been 28 days since they last wrote to me and the charge hasn’t been paid despite “numerous” attempts to gain payment.
All a load of tosh.
In the back it states I have missed the opportunity to appeal and can only appeal in exceptional circumstances if rejected need to appeal to POPLA(?).
Question is can I just start the appeal process as per newbie thread and state the first/multiple attempts have never been received and this is the first I’m hearing of this? Searched the forum to see if this had happened to anybody else and couldn’t find anything.
Any help is appreciated. There isn’t an online appeal process so would need to be done by letter unless anybody is advice around that.
Thanks in advance.

Why do you think you didn't receive the first letter PCN/NTK? The ususal reason is that your address on the V5C is not up-to-date. Don't assume, find it and check and, if it is incorrect, it is simple to correct with DVLA on-line.2

Because they have my info correct with this letter and have stated that it has been 28 days since they last wrote to me. I’ve not received anything but they’re stating that they’ve sent something.All info is correct with DVLA.1

This is often the reason for the first letter being a debt collector letter.
Your driving licence isn't the record the DVLA give out. It's whatever address is on the car logbook. But if that is all correct:
Which PPC is it? PCS are not the PPC.
Does the letter read that the first PCN was affixed to the windscreen? Or what is the allegation - overstay? No permit?PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Now of course, I just want to appeal and get them off my back. Have been working hard to get my credit in order over the last few years and fear this could affect that? But certainly don’t want to hand over £100 either!
any help is appreciated here. Thanks0 -

@Argie_wizard, you have sort of given a vague answer, but now will you please confirm that the vehicle's Registration Document(V5c) has the correct up to date keeper's address on it?
Please, no guessing. Find that document, read it and report back.1 -
