(View all)Uh, no.
Not only no, but HELL NO.
* You have one or more DUI's on your account
* You have [3] speeding tickets.
* You are wanted in California
This has resulted in an increase of 65% in your Final Value Fee.
You believe wrong. They do. And scam was my first thought too, but then try logging into your account, and find you dont even have access without going through their investigations interface. Only after complying with their every demand and emailing and calling and arguing through hours of their investigators BS on why they have to put an indefinite rolling hold on your $10,000, do you even gain access to your account to see that they've done it. And only when you start spending money on letters drafted by attorneys do you get them to back off and hand over your funds. I could go on, but this threads dead.
Very interesting. Thank you for the info.Two crap companies that just keep getting worse every year. Thankfully they're both under investigation themselves for shady billing practices and what in some cases amounts to racketeering.
The magnetic strip of your DL simply contains all the information already printed in the front.
In some liquor stores, the clerk asks you for your license, and swipes it on the card reader of their register, and it will tell the clerk whether or not you are authorized to buy liquor based on your D.O.B. stored on the magnetic strip
