We don't have a car, so whenever we want to go somewhere where it's hard to get to with public transport, we rent a car. I then register for an E-Toll pass on the RTA site to handle any toll roads, which is a lot easier then trying to avoid them. So, again, a couple of weeks ago, we rented a car, got an e-tag, and then get the invoice. You pay extra for the photo matching, no sweat. Now this week we got another invoice from Connector Motorways, for using the Lane Cove Tunnel. I immediately thought I already had paid for it through my RTA E-Toll pass invoice. But it turns out that the particular transit through the tunnel wasn't on that invoice. It's Connector Motorways (which favours RoamExpress over RTA) that should have let RTA know that I passed there again for that instance (they did for two other occasions during that same weekend). Instead they charge me an extra 10$ administration fee... I feel this is a sham. And, I guess as most would do, I just payed up because that 10$ isn't worth spending more time on a phonecall or an email. But I sure do write this 10$ blogpost complaining about it!
