So, I get home from the gym.. and see that I have a letter from a law firm. I think "huh?" Well.. it's regarding a debt I apparently owe TU in the form of 59.19. YES, PEOPLE. THAT'S IT. I attended TU for SEVEN years.. SEVEN.. undergrad.. and law school.. and graduated LAST MAY.. paid in full. Okay.. so the fact that this has even GONE to a law firm already is pissing me off for 50 dollars. I called teh law firm.. who has no answers.. Then, I called TU.. who told me.. that I got a PARKING TICKET at the apartments in OCTOBER 2006.. yes.. that's right folks, AFTER I HAD ALREADY GRADUATED! I was visiting AARON for crying out loud.. So.. since they couldnt find me (since Im not a student anymore), they opted to send the debt to a LAW. FIRM. So.. now if I dont pay it, it will go on my CREDIT. REPORT. I called TU and very sharply explained that I had better hear something back tomorrow morning regarding the resolution or things wont be pretty.
Then, I called the law firm.. and get this.. now that it's gone THIS FAR the only way I can make it go away is to write a letter.. to the law firm.. disputing the charge.. then TU has the chance to rebut it.. then and only then it MIGHT go away. I am so freaking livid right now. TU cant get ANY of their shit together despite being the most expensive university in the state. FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH********

woof. that blows if it makes you feel any better i racked up about $300 in fines when i was a freshman.
ARG!!! I think the most irritating thing is that the ticket was for an expired parking permit.. AND I HAD GRADUATED.. STUPID TU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm sorry lover!!! If you don't hear from TU tomorrow, call someone in the Alumni Relations Department. I'm sure they'll be able to help point you in the right direction and get things movin'.
the worst part? I wonder how much of that is the fees that accrued for your having not paid the ticket...
I totally hear this...TU is threatening not to give me my diploma because of a "key hold". I already told them that I lost the key to the PAD office and asked them how much the fine was. They told me that there was procedure etc. Whatever. I did however, pay my parking ticket total. By the way, for some reason I can't get up the guts to call St. John's to tell them that I am officially disputing my bill, so if I like bought you a couple of martinis, would you do that for me? You can call as my representative or something. But I'm scared if I don't do it soon, I'm going to be getting a call from a law firm.
