SALIK fined me for passing by its toll gates without the new license plates, then took around a month asking me details they could have accessed anyway, just to tell me to visit a branch to submit the violation dispute to them :/
REVIEW
Not only did SALIK not really solve the traffic problems, but I got a violation from SALIK that I paid to the Vehicle & Licensing Department in Abu Dhabi, for passing through the toll bridges while having the old system's license plate :S
Nobody informed me that there are new license plates in the city where I registered the car, and nobody informed me (not even SALIK) that I would be fined for using the old license plate, and my time to renew the vehicle registration did not yet come, so why would I even update the plate, and why would I be fined for not updating it before the renewal deadline, without being informed?
Not only that, but they asked me questions about me, the vehicle, its owner, its registration, its registration image, and my SALIK account details in FULL for around a month, and then they tell me to visit a branch.

After all
the information you requested for entire month and now you are telling me that
there are no Salik violations? These are violations by Salik that I paid at the
Abu Dhabi
traffic department before renewal and changing of the license plate to the new
format.
Please
refund the Salik fines stated; they are associated with the records at the
traffic department that I already paid. Just because I paid them and are from
last year does not mean that they cannot be
refunded.
Thanks,

Dear SALIK
Customer
Service,
You have
asked about almost every single possible detail about my Salik account, the car,
its registration, and the violation, and I even copy-pasted the violation that I am referring to. This
has taken way too much time from me and has been ongoing for almost an entire
month with no results. It seems as if you are attempting to stall this process
and keep the fines by asking me all these questions and hoping that I stop
corresponding.
Here is
the violations screenshot you requested, though you could have simply seen that
by accessing my SALIK account. I hope is the last piece of information that you
request from me.
Thanks,

*: Dear Salik, Would like to make a
complaint about the violations on my accounts mentioned below. I called and they
told me it was because the license plate was the old model. The problem is that
I had no idea that there were new license plates, and my renewal was not due yet
at that time. Can you be a little more fair in your judgment and consider the
fact that I did not even know there were new license and that having the old
ones would be considered a violation? Plate # Trip Date/Time Location Direction
