I think that moneyguy is right with his post, and generally think that these things affect your credit. I kind of think that this thread is amusing in general; people know that they are parking illegally and want to figure out ways to beat the system. I hate Impark as much as the next guy, and basically think that they are criminals, but I still pay the fee.
I did get a ticket from them, and sent them a quick note explaining that they were charging a ridiculous amount, and that they were entitled to their money lost and nothing else. I sent them a cheque for $2.00 and noted that by them cashing this they were accepring that as full payment. It's over and done with. Yes, it cost me $2.51 and about five minutes of my time, but that is far better than a possible mark on my credit!
