    Are you in the U.S. I have been in accounting for over 20 years and they always send paper work which can easily be disputed or worked with. If you are U.S. check your paper work, there is a phone number and most circumstances only take a phone call to clear things up or change the amount you are paying.

    From the original amount you owed, there would be legal fees, court fees and interest added
