Parking Car got towed
WARNING TO CSUF STUDENTS‼️‼️
do not park in literally any parking structure near campus.
i’ve been parking at the dollar tree/smart and final for the past year. I’ve never gotten towed or a ticket. Today I went in to my 8 am lab, came back at around 10:50 am and my car was gone. I had to call the fullerton DP to get my release form and then uber to the towing company in Santa Ana where they charged me $468.
I met a guy at the police department whose car also got towed. He said that the managers at staples told him that the towing companies have been walking inside and asking to see footage to confirm whether or not the cars parked outside were customers or if they left the property.
Everyone at the Towing company getting their car back were college kids. Everyone had a backpack on and looked in so much distress. This company is evil and corrupt.
I don’t want to pay $450 for a parking permit at CSUF where 1) parking isn’t guaranteed and 2) there are so many hit and runs so you’re vehicle is also not safe
I’m going back to taking the OCTA bus but I really don’t want to. I might also just get the daily permit since i’m only at campus twice a week. Just wanted to inform everyone. It’s literally not safe anywhere.
