In the UK only courts councils and police can issue fines or penalties. So their claim of fines is incorrect.

Debt collectors have ZERO legal standing and enforcement powers in absence of a court ruling.
And, presumably, the UK government who are the ones running the remote payment scheme. Or, at least, SANEF UK is running it on their behalf.

"You’ll be sent a Penalty Charge Notice if you don’t pay by midnight on the day after you made your crossing.
The penalty charge is £70 and must be paid within 28 days. It’s reduced to £35 if you pay within 14 days and increased to £105 if you don’t pay. You also have to pay the crossing charge.
The Penalty Charge Notice will tell you how to pay."
