Car towed ... again!

We didn't do anything wrong.  It was parked on the street, legally.  Then today there were construction signs put up and it has been towed.  V spent an hour and calls, one after the other, to something like 10 different people, trying to track it down.  We are finally zeroing in.  I can see the fees stacking up already.

We are living paycheck to paycheck.  We didn't do anything wrong and suddenly out of the blue we are supposed to pay fines we can't afford.  What are people supposed to do?

The apartment people here said we only had to pay $17 a month for a parking space.  Then when we went to get one they said there were none available.  We were misled, so we had to park on the street.  

This reminds me of when the bank repossessed our van last year.   Even though we were making payments and when we went to the bank they didn't have records of our payments (but we did from our bank)...  still we had to pay all the fees.  Thousands of dollars.
