Any repercussions for not paying 717?

Parked for a bolts game. My license plate changed recently, and the app showed the old plate.

We paid. Have proof of payment. They gave me a ticket. They won't refund the original payment (for a car they seemingly can't verify was ever in their lot) nor rescind the notice. Essentially they're asking me pay double. I refused.

But I'm sure I'll need to park downtime at some time in the future. I assume they'll continue to harass me or threaten to tow if I don't pay, because they're scum.

My first thought is to stop payment via my credit card and pay the notice. My concern there is companies also tend to retaliate when you go that route. So it seems like even if I do pay them the fair price, I'm screwed either way.

Not sure the best path forward, in principle. Wondering what other people have done in this situation.
