Waterloo Bridge is a long way from Marylebone Road. I suspect an appeal
would only succeed if the OP was caught on camera actually on the
diversion in Marylebone (which sounds unlikely from his description).

I would have entered the charge zone at about 6.40 - 6.45am, so I guess I
wouldn't have been on camera.

Well, you'd have been on camera, they just wouldn't have logged you as
chargeable. But did you stick to the diversion and exit from the zone as
soon as possible? Sounds to me like you took a chance on rat-running
through the middle before 7am. There's nothing wrong with that, except
it's also nothing to do with the police's diversion.
