UKPA PCN number does not match format on payment page

Options
Please help - I am trying to pay UKPA  PCN but the format on the payment page does not match the letter. How am I supposed to pay it. I have sent an email to their techsupport but no response. No phone number to call them on. It is not possible to pay the PCN.

    This is what the payment page looks like and I only have a reference number: M12345 (Letter, 5 Digits), I dont have anything like an access code either:

    PCN Reference Number

    This will start with UKPA. e.g. UKPA-123-456 

    Access Code

    Please provide the four digit access code that is written on your correspondence
    Access code must be 4 digits

    What is the date of the parking event?

    You are mixing things up they have two different systems not one, yours is one of them, but this is a money SAVING site and I would urge you to consider why you want to throw your cash at a scammer.
    Why exactly have they sent you their silly invoice?

    It's quite simple as I said above there are two systems both indicated on their web pages and you select the one you have.

    But why you want to pay a scammer I don't know!

    Indeed.

    But you NEVER pay these!  STOP!
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
