Once you start fighting a parking ticket with parkingticket.com, you may receive an offer from the City to lower your fine BEFORE an actual hearing occurs. This tactic is sometimes used to get people whose tickets should be dismissed to simply accept a token offer of a reduced fine.
While it is a good first step, it should NOT be mistaken for an actual hearing. If you receive such an offer we suggest you simply follow the City’s instructions and ignore the letter. By doing so you will leave the door open to a complete dismissal of the ticket and or a full refund of the parkingticket.com guaranteed refund fee.
The City sends out Parking Ticket Penalty Notices to everybody. Why? Because they want people to pay even though they don't have to.
If you receive a Penalty Notice from the City stating that you have to pay your parking ticket, please note that you are not required to pay the City one dollar until you have had a fair and impartial hearing by mail.
Without a doubt you have the right to fight your ticket.
It is important to note the City considers most parking tickets to be "minor infractions" of the parking rules and that if you read their Notice carefully you will see that it does not explain:
Don't be bullied
