Drivers to get share of $2.5 million settlement after ‘being slapped with tickets for garages they never even entered’
Summary
Metropolis Technologies, a major parking services provider, has agreed to an $8.75 million settlement following an investigation into billing errors. Drivers were often charged for parking in lots they never entered or for simply passing through garages. A $2.25 million portion of the settlement will fund a Tennessee Parking Program, offering eligible drivers $30 in parking credits in Nashville, Knoxville, and Memphis. Additionally, drivers overcharged between July 1, 2021, and January 6, 2026, can seek refunds. While Metropolis maintains it did no wrong, the settlement concludes a two-year investigation initiated by the Tennessee Attorney General. The remaining $6.5 million will be paid to the state and used at the Attorney General’s discretion, and Metropolis will be required to improve its signage and customer support.
