Re: Need off topic help




Thats how the rego works here in Australia.

Every year we get the renewal in the mail about 1 month before expirery.

If we pay, we get 1 more year of registration.
If we dont pay, guess what?? we get no renewal of registration!

You dont get a bill a few years later to say you owe them money for rego that you never wanted.

End of story!

If we dont pay, or dont get the renewal in the mail? or forget to pay it, we have a couple of weeks grace and then just go and pay.

But after a month or so, and we decide to renew the rego, we have to go and get a "roadworthy certificate" and get the car reregistered at the local rego branch.

How do they work things in Connecticut? Here in British Columbia when your registration is up you have to renew by signing your renewal form and giving them $XX for the registration fee. If you do not provide both your fee and your signature by the expiry date, your registration expires. And the license plate on your car has the month and day the registration expires. If you renew, as above, you get a new sticker with the new expiration month and year. Again, no money or signature, no sticker. You give them nothing, you get nothing.

If you owe all this money, demand proof. They should have ten years (or whatever) of renewal forms with your signature on them. No signed renewal forms, no renewal was requested. No renewals requested, no moneys owing.

(Or is Connecticut stupid enough to renew vehicle registrations without either a signature from the owner or payment for same. If so, how can I register my cars in Connecticut for the next ten years for nothing?)

Pass all this along to the collection agency, and advise them that as you have not signed a renewal form since you moved to Florida you do not owe them any money. And as you have not signed any renewal forms since you moved to Florida, Connecticut cannot prove that you owe any money. And given the previous, it is fairly obvious someone is involved in a fraud scam and you will be reporting the whole stinking affair to the local authorities.

I would also pass along the oldest proof of registration in Florida you can aquire. That would also call into question the validity of Connecticut's claim from their point of view.

Hi Dennis,
Thanks for the info and I would love to tell them that...however, since a
collection agency is involved I would prefer to get it resolved and not hurt
my credit. :-)
Regards,
Ken

Ken,
 Tell Connecticut to go p**s up a rope, you live in Florida, how are they
going to enforce it. Send them the information that you have available. I
would spend $15 and go have a chat with a lawyer about it.

 PS My ex father in law had the same problem with New York, and that is
basically what he told them and never heard from them again.

Hi all,
Does someone have a CarFax service that they can use to run a VIN for me.
After 10 years the lovely state of Connecticut has sent me a bill for almost
$900 for back car registration.

I told them we moved back to Florida 10 years ago, but they say it's up to me to prove I registered the car in Florida. and Florida DMV says they purge
their records after 7 years so I am hoping CarFax will show the title
transfer back in 1997 or 1998.

The car was a 1997 Saturn SL
VIN# 1G8ZF5281VZ232982

I know it's a Saturn, but any money I save can go to the Poly project.
I am trying to fight city hall.thanks for any help.

Regards,
Ken
