thanks for the reply mate, I appreciate it... great tips. Shows that being honest doesnt always pay off

What an absolute load of rubbish... I don't need a pat on the back, I was looking for advice which I got from others who were a bit more…

I highly doubt that but neither do a lot of people... I worked in utilities a while back and the first project I was involved in was…

yeah I tried that... I think I was too honest in my letter though which is why I've ended up just having to pay. Ultimately the lesson…

Like all of the other negative comments you are missing my point.. I really dont want to be a PITA, I'm actually a pretty decent person who…

Ive paid the fine, I was hoping for some leniency but that doesn't exist in the current world

Yeah I was going down that path but overwhelmingly people have just said suck it up and some people have said this in a way more direct and…

yeah i know... the actual amount of the fines are ridiculous as well. I would have learnt an equal lesson if the fine was half the amount,…

yep.... Ive paid it and wont make that mistake again

yeah, I eg your pain mate that would piss me off as well... In this case it might have been me in that car space but her sitting there in…

yeah not worth it.. even though some of the responses on here have been outright rude and nasty, it has been useful to get peoples views…

I would normally thank you for your response but you are just being nasty... I am not entitled, I know how to drive but I am human and…

Correct... I was hoping that considering there were about 5 spaces available they may understand the situation but clearly it doesn't…

Because it took them 3 months to respond to my queries, I guess it was that time of the year.

then you missed all the other info about paying for a ticket etc. I get your point but the world isn't always black and white (well I…

I see the opposite, they have people patrolling that street all the time... pretty hard to get away with it!

Ok, i think we are done here...

Again you are being way too black and white here... I would never suggest such a stupid thing as to move signed whilst i was inside. I paid…

Sigh... here we go again. This comment was in relation to seeing how others are getting tickets not me. I have taken responsibility for my…

Like I've said i didnt see the sign and just thought it was a 1 hour park like the other ones... people make mistakes

I've taken full responsibility and have paid my fine.. i'm not entitled I made an honest mistake and was kind of hoping it would be seen as…

That's not how it works, if you challenge a fine it gets put on hold until they respond to you... I have until the 10th of january as it…

I'm not crying... just trying to get out of paying $200 for a 15 minute honest mistake.. as stated above, I'll just have to pay it

yeah thats how I feel but I doubt they will see it that way

I am not entitled, I made a mistake... I didn't park there deliberately, I paid for a ticket, displayed it on my dash and parked in the…

It was my first day, I've never parked there before and as I stated i just parked, went upstairs and got my garage pass I have decided to…

People make mistakes? I just figured it was a 1hour park like the rest of the street.. I realise I made a mistake

As I mentioned above I was seeking peoples opinions before actually taking it to court... the opinions (most of them) have been helpful in…

I'm allowed to seek others opinions, isn't that the whole point of the forum? I don't know what I expected, but it has unanimously be to…

yeah thats the mistake I made.. its my fault for not looking but I just pulled in in front of the tree thinking it was a 1 our park like…
