1 /5 Sandra Deal: Transfer of title ...had bill of sale on counter asked agent if she needed to see this told "no" , had insurance in red envelope sealed , not looked at , title according to her was only document I needed . I did not know at this time that wrong title had been given to me by mistake . I had not looked at title other than glancing n seeing it was a prius and in owners name . Bill of sale showed 2004 Toyota prius, title showed 2008 ....the 2008 Toyota Prius belongs to Kathleen Peck , former wife of Byrl Peck . When mistake was noted office had already closed . Called tax office next morning and was told nothing could be done that when title came back would have to go through process again . I paid $379.00 Ad valorem taxes . on a car that is not mine . Prior to going to tag office Mr PECK called to see what cost would be ....$279 was quote given for 2004 Toyota prius . Will have to now pay ad valorem taxes on 2004 . Asked couldnt this just be corrected ...was told "No" ,I am on a fixed income . This is going to really hurt my budget total 658 $ in taxes of which 379 was a mistake .No refund would be considered.
When I called tag office next day I was told it had already Been sent to Atlanta, nothing could be done.
