Parking Ticket

Ai yo yo ..... Got booked twice ya TWICE in 5 days for parking ticket offences.

First one was in town where I overstayed the time I tore on the parking coupon (that's $10). The second one was totally forgot to put any parking coupon (that's $30) and that was after I even saw the little 'aunty' walking around !! Can you beat that !! Super dumb !

Anyways it's not the fine that has me bugged it's the payment. Once in a while I get a ticket for these coupon offences either overstay or forgot to tear. So far before these 2 came along,I normally pay via the ATM, some banks allow that. The 2 tickets seem different one was white the other was green, have no idea why it's like that. So paid up with one at teh ATM but the green one I could not pay via the ATM as it keeps saying ticket number not found. On closer inspection seems I could pay at the AXS machines, and not via the ATMs.

Ok well and good. Found an AXS machine and selected payment, then my troubles started, it does not say anything on which option to choose or which government organisation to pay to. I figured URA since that was who I paid to in all my previous offences. INCORRECT TICKET NUMBER flashes before me. hhhhmmmmm .... maybe Traffic Police, up pops INCORRECT TICKET NUMBER message again. Well it has got to be LTA then --- worng --- another INCORRECT TICKET NUMBER pops up. Was wondering what else it could be and I decided to try HDB, low and behold it went through !! So after 4 tries I finally managed to pay off by fines and learn a few things as well. Green Tickets are payable to HDB, White ones to URA.
