Won't be using Fines SA to pay any fines

2 fines were unpaid when I paid it on 25 March 2025. Received a Summons for the 1 and an sms for a reduced amount from COCT on the 2nd fine and notification that the fine is still not paid. Spoke to the consultant who told me they pay fines after 30 days from receipt of the cash and I advised it that I paid the fines almost 2 months ago. How did they have a higher amount than COCT for the 1 fine? Will never use them again.
