I parked my car at an Imperial Park, a privately owned parking lot for work in Seattle. Because I stayed until after 6pm, I recieved a notice on my windshield to pay by mail. I put the notice in my car and did not pay it. The original parking amount was for $12.00. The next thing I recieved was a notice that this had been assigned to a collection agency. I never recieved any warning or reminder or notice that this was going to happen. The bill was $60.00. I called up "Parking Collection Service" and told them I was not going to pay $60.00 but that I would happily pay the original $12.00 fee. They said, "we will note your refusal to pay"! and then they hung up on me. I read the letter sent, and it says failure to pay may result in Further Collection Efforts. I don't know what this means, but I feel scared that this will now be on my credit report. Will it?
