I rented a car from Avis 15 months ago. While i was there i got a 100NIS parking ticket which i discarded.

a few weeks ago i got a letter in the mail from an attorney in Israel who was demanding that i pay  the fine plus an additional 40NIS!

I googled him and he advertises that he collects corporate loans and fines for a commission, I had long ago canceled that credit card but i paid him (although i probably could have gotten away with it...)

I'm glad you got a laugh out of it,
as i wasn't sure if it could affect my credit and it was a legitimate ticket i figured 140 nis isn't a whole lot of money to spend just to b sure

I just got a letter from a lawyer representing the city of Jerusalem for a ticket that I got on the second day of shavuos - last year. I definitely don't think I should have to pay it as it was chag for me.

It says that if I don't pay the fine within 30 days I will be charged a lot more. Of course I only got the letter four months late.

Anyone have any suggestions? I live in the U.S...
Can I be arrested the next time I come to Israel if I get pulled over or something?

Anyone has ant experience getting a parking ticket on a rental car in Israel? does the rental agency go after your cc?
As per my experience with Avis 9 out of 10 times they don't.

please post your experiences..

I just got 3 charges on my cc from a jan car rental.. So yes....

Just received two charges for $22 from Eldan. I contacted them, and they said its a processing fee for parking tickets in January.

Yes I canceled my card. And received my new one already.

wow, were you aware of this previously?
i don't know if it can go on your credit report, but if it can, i'd be concerned.

yes I had loads of tickets from my time there as a bocher, but I don't see how it can affect my credit as it had nothing with my ssn

I did a favor for a friend and rented a car for him under my name. he got a 500 shekel fine for parking on the sidewalk. I really hope nothing happens but i just saw a random 50 shekel charge on my cc from avis. Now im afraid that might be the fee for processing or something and that the ticket will soon arive by mail.

I don't understand why people in this thread are suggesting to cancel your card, when all you need is to report it stolen and they'll over night you new numbers. Should accomplish the same thing
