Better Business Bureau is alerting Seattle-area drivers about Republic Parking Northwest [7] after the company failed to respond to 19 of 53 complaints within the past three years.

Patrons of the paid parking lots allege that the company failed to provide functioning and conspicuous pay stations, charged late penalties of more than 60% of original parking fees, and continued to seek payments—up to two years later—after customers claimed to have already paid.

Republic Parking Northwest has earned an “F” rating with Better Business Bureau serving Alaska, Oregon and Western Washington.
