Make sure you have a good case and the laws are in your side. After you got all the facts straight and have tried all means without success, you may want to engage your local US rep.
Don't get your US rep involve in shaky, unlawful cases, as the rep may retaliate and agencies may refer you to DOJ for prosecution.

Do involve them when you have a solid case. That is why they are elected and most will get involved and make those harassing you very uncomfortable. I learned this while on active duty and sometimes having to deal with very difficult civil servants (sand crabs).

Ticuan, and all the decent hotels, have monitored parking.
This all presupposes that you drive a "normal" car. If it's a Ferrari, or Lambo, or some other six-figure car, well. Maybe it's better to leave that at home. No sense in tempting fate. If you drive around you'll see lots of expensive vehicles. There's money in Tijuana. Nobody gives my 20 year old Beemers a second glance.

Posts: 532If I stay the night at a hotel like Ticuan or even somewhere like Premier, is it safe to leave your car parked there overnight? Don't know how many of you actually drive into Tijuana as opposed to just using taxis and Ubers.
If it's not safe I suppose I can leave my car at home and just take the trolley to the border since I live close to a trolley station. It would just be more convenient to have my own car to get around. Just not sure how good security is at these hotels for vehicles.

Sunday evenings are not good. But Friday nights later and Saturday are good times to return it appears. Or very early morning could work as well but not as good as at night. This is a historical chart attached so I am sure staffing levels could change from year to year but I think it's a good graph which seems semi accurate for the couple times I have been down there since the Global got pulled.

Posts: 413Global E to save time?
Guess it depends on how often and how long are we prepared to wait. I used to wait till after midnight during the week. Or leave before 9 AM on a Sunday.
I usually drive across. I have TSA precheck and passport card. Global duplicates these and I guess allows to drive in Sentri lanes? My vehicle will be too old for a Sentri so I figured to wait 6 months and do all this paperwork while registering a newer vehicle. But I no longer live in Baja or visit hktj as often as previously.

It's one thing for the GOV to say we pulled it and we make the rules. But they state they will tell you in detail what it was pulled for on their own web site. They need to follow through with the rules that they made and advertise to over 330 million people!

Travv,
The attorneys will milk him for $5 K to 10 K form some stupid bullshit work, cause further delays, more complications and may make his situation worse.
I know you like to spend big money on chicas and attorneys, but these admin cases can be solved and much better solved by the affected parties themselves without the need for attorneys with their bullshit and high fees. I know a few guys who were lied to, strung along and milked big time by these attorneys who did very little work besides bullshitting their clients and lost the cases.
Go in DHS web site, read their regulations and keep writing to them asking for redress. After having all their evidences and arguments you can ask for a trial by an admin judge. In most cases DHS' attorneys would cave way before the trial. Their bosses would never let their high-priced attorneys screw around with a guy who just wants his GE card reinstated.

A number of lawyers handle Sentri cases and appeals. If it is important to you, you might want to consult one of them and see if he can get it back for you. Google the title above for contact info for one firm. From their website:
According to the TSA, approximately 3-5% of the roughly 30,000 applicants that apply for Global Entry status every month will be denied. Customs and Border Protection ("CBP") in most cases will issue a written reason for the denial, but this is not always the case. In some cases, the applicant will have to pursue various avenues in an attempt to find out the reason for the denial. The most common reasons applicants will be denied, however, will be due to past arrests or convictions for criminal offenses or for administrative customs violations. In short, even minor criminal convictions or customs violations, regardless of their age, could result in a preliminary denial of Global Entry membership.
If your Global Entry application has been rejected, you should promptly consult with an experienced Global Entry appeal lawyer. If necessary, the Global Entry appeal lawyers at National Security Law Firm will investigate why your application was rejected. We will then request paperwork relating to the underlying offense and gather personal and professional paperwork relating to your character and the reasons why you would like Global Entry membership. We will then submit an appeal on your behalf discussing the reasons for the denial, demonstrating your rehabilitation, explaining your need for Global Entry, and providing evidence demonstrating that you are not a security risk to the security of the United States. If you are interested in appealing your Global Entry denial or revocation, you should consider an experienced attorney to assist.

I also find it hard to believe it was the address. He asked me where I lived and I said San Diego, but my old address was El Cajon and not San Diego so maybe this was an issue. While I reapplied and fixed my address, without knowing if it was the issue I could take months to even be considered and then maybe it wasn't my address at all so my application doesn't respond to the actual issue. Very frustrating. What is odd is I can see in other foreign countries where rules and laws are setup that are not "fair", but the USA I think is more of a gold standard of rights for the person. Of course the program is a privilege and not a "right", but still the process is a bit messed up not telling someone what they screwed up on.
Anyway. I am just crossing at less busy times so I am still dam appreciative to be able to travel back and forth thru Mexico and many countries and there are billions from other countries that would love a US passport so I got to look at the glass half full on this issue I think.
