ummm yea bro... take it from me i got parking tickets from these pricks like you wouldn't believe... At first the tickets were only $65.00(3 of them) back in 2004. I ignored it; then in 2008 they sent me the Wiggins Adjustment letter and on the letter it said i owed $450 for not paying them over the years the taxes added up. So i changed my plates and everything.... never heard from them again.

Yup, they'll tow your car if they spot your plate and you own them money so that's why you stay away from DP lots or you go get yourself new plates.

if impark is harassing your home phone every damn night or close to that
just give them a call, ask them to waive the whole damn ticket (make any bs/random reason you want), they will 99% say no and tell you to pay the original price. saying how is a good deal, since your ticket now is like $100-$400 lol.
now, you tell them, you ain't paying them NOTHING. and hang up.
usually after this, they won't call you again. they will just start sending you a few lame collection letters and it's done.
for university/college parking tickets... i got like 4 within 2 weeks from SFU. (yes, i'm an asshole, i park at their 15min drop off spot back then for one of my morning class LOL) don't think they'll tow you.. maybe you need 5+ tickets? I'm not sure. and of course i didn't pay any of them and they didn't give me any trouble. no calls, no letters, lol.
hope it helps.

I've also heard that if you tell them to stop calling (harrassing) you, then they have to stop as it becomes borderline criminal harassment especially if they are calling you everyday.

| Diamond Parking Ticket & Wiggins Adjustments
There is an easy way to get these people to stop calling.
According to the BUSINESS PRACTICES AND CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT;
(4) A collector must not continue to communicate with a debtor
(a) except in writing, if the debtor
(i) $has notified the collector to communicate in writing only, and
(ii) $has provided a mailing address at which the debtor may be contacted,
see this link: http://www.bclaws.ca/EPLibraries/bcl...eside/04002_09
Simply send the collections agency a fax stating you wish to be contacted by written correspondence ONLY and state the mailing address at which they can send mail to you. Provide your full name and be sure to clearly note what matter pertains to (i.e. parking ticket for license plate number ABC 123) sign the fax, and record the date you sent it. Keep the fax. You also need to send the same fax to the creditor (i.e. the parking lot company such as Diamond Parking). 
If by chance they are calling you about a parking ticket from Diamond Parking, in the same fax, tell them you wish to dispute the ticket and all related charges in court. They wont take you to court because it's your word against theirs, they won't win. Even if they tried the cost of pursuing the matter in court far exceeds the sum they can hope to recover.
Lastly, a parking ticket and fine from a private parking lot WILL NOT and CAN NOT affect your credit rating. You did not borrow money from them and not pay it back. Parking tickets from the city or a government entity, however, is a different story.

well i guess it comes down to that.. ignore the parking tickets? >.< | they'll only knw if you park there again without paying. If you park with a paid ticket, the attendant's not going to look up ur plate.
Either way, if you're really worried, just change ur plate for $18

change your plates and your fine. havnt ever paid one of these parking tickets off and my credit is fine. there is no way they can fuck your credit history up if you havnt signed some sort of contract.
the most they can do is take you to court. but there is no chance of that because who the fuck is gonna take someone to court to pay 100 bucks. not only are there court fees. but im sure that they also have to call in the person who wrote the ticket out. all that work and lost wages just for 100 bucks. fuck that shit.

well, i had a ticket 4 months ago, got a letter, states to pay 100 bucks since i missed the orginal 70$ ticket and had to pay additional 30 for the delay.
so i called them, told them i never got a ticket on my window and they just said "ok pay 35 then". and so i did.
Meh, i did violate their parking rule, might as well pay it for a discount then getting through all those annoying steps of getting letters

these clowns sent me a letter last friday!
saying that i left the restaurants parking lot to go to "yohan shopping center" wich is bullshit cause ive never even been in there! i had simply parked in a restaurant parking lot, walked about 2 minutes down the road to an atm, then went to the restaurant, ate my lunch with some friends, then came back to my truck to find it ticketed. if they think im going to pay, they can simply fuck right off.
im changing my plates, cops keep harassing me cause i dont have a front plate (4x4'ing at stave lake...its in the mud somewhere) so its just easier this way.

Sorry for the thread highjack, but I posted this on the SFU thread, and seems like nobody knew the answer.
So I just received a ticket from SFU Burnaby G-Lot. They wrote down the license plate and the model, but didn't write down my parking permit number. I have registered my car on the SFU parking page, but do they actually cross-reference my license plate with my parking permit/sfu ID? Has anyone not paid and got away with it? Or do they actually hunt you down? Would it affect any future purchases of parking passes?
Thanks!

they use an automated caller when they call your house. i simply chose the option for something along the lines of "this person does not live here" and never got a call back

I have about $500 of parking tickets in Victoria, some with the city, some with robbins (Including an accidental parking in a handicapped spot). fuck them all, I moved cities, they can eat my dick, end of story.

Can anything even happen if you don't pay a ticket?
I parked in the alley way behind Robson like 6/7 months ago (some store). Got a ticket, didn't pay it, and nothing ever happened.
I guess the most they can do is tow your car?

they gave you a ticket for 60$ or so....grab a slingshot, some ball bearings, find out where there office is, have a buddy do a drive by while you take out one of their windows at night...you may have had to pay 60$...but now their going to be paying several hundreds for a new window  | |
