Needed to bump this thread after my visit to the Secretary of State today. So, apparently my liscene plates expired at the end of April, unbeknownest to me, since I never received my renewal form from the Secretary of State. This weekend I went to my car to find three tickets for an expired liscene plate written over the past three days. I go to the Secretary of State's office today to renew my plates and calmly asked why I didn't receive a renewal form and if there was anything I could do about the tickets, they told me they didn't have my current address on file. However, I bought the car at my current address, receive my car payments there and have received notices for tickets I got last year due to street cleaning at this address as well. After I explained this, the woman just decided it'd be better to ignore me and help the next customer, so I asked again she just brought another person over to deal with me. I explained the situation to him, he said the system had the wrong address, at this point my temper is starting to rise because their reasoning is complete bs, I moved two years ago and received a renewal notice for the car I use to own last year at my new address, and raised my voice a little, this guy gets pissed I raised my voice says don't do taht and walks away, I continue to stand there and a third person asks me what my problem is, I explain the situation to her and she just says, well, it's not our fault, the renewal form is just a curtosy anyway so there's nothing I can do. I lost it at this point told everyone behind the counter they were f'ing useless and left. I'm fighting these tickets though, no way am I paying $150 ($200 if I get a ticket before I get home from work today). I realize these people have to deal with angry, pissed off people all the time, but to just turn your back on someone and ignore them is beyond bad service, these tickets are going to cost me $150 because I wasn't even aware my plates expired, I didn't even notice the first ticket until Friday afternoon, by that point I couldn't even resolve the problem until today and I've now recieved two more $50 tickets, possibly a third this today. I'm not going down without a fight on this one.
