On 02/22/2024, the customer was advised that we honor the ********************** rate on the tolls that were pending in the SunPass system.Business Response
Date: 03/12/2024
On Friday, March 8th,I had a conversation with a customer. During the conversation, I explained to the customer that the toll transactions which did not escalate to the collection ledger were adjusted at the SunPass rate. However, I also informed the customer that the toll transactions which were already in collections could not be adjusted, as they were no longer in our system. Despite my explanation,the customer was still unsatisfied with the outcome of the conversation. Before we could continue, the customer had to end the conversation, stating that he was at work and would call me later. However, the customer never called me back. I tried to reach out to the customer, but to no avail. I even sent an email with my contact information and office hours; in case the customer had any further questions or concerns.

I am rejecting this response because:They attempted to explain/ provide a partial adjustment. I have responded several times that this is not satisfactory. The account was in their system. I did not pay a collection department. I paid the balance on their website. Therefore it was in their system and they can adjust the correct the balance navy's they have full records of all transactions.

Complaint: 21266723
I am rejecting this response because there was no solution. I received messages stating that they verified the information yet I sent my work schedule for them to compare when I was charged. If it was indeed reviewed they would see I was out of state when I was charged. The issue is with E-pass. There are no images to to verify only that a transponder was picked up. I still don't know why because the date that was listed I did not use a transponder nor went through a toll. I was charged correctly for sunpass but then charged on E-pass on days I did not use the toll. The days I did use my motorcycle I did not have the transponder with me, I was charged on surpass. It's the only vehicle I have registered with E-pass.

I was charged for tolls incorrectly from 2021 to **** sunpass added fees that sunpass holders are exempt from. my vehicle license plate is correctly associated with my sunpass account. my preferred communication method listed is email. sunpass failed to email me the invoices and are now trying to collect additional penalty fees. The invoices sent to me list multiple account numbers and have varying balances when I only have one sunpass account.Business Response

Over charges by ******** , they took all money in the Transponder.I personally used the transponder in *************** only, for *** be 7 to 10 times the cost is $0.50 for each cross of the bridge, so when I found out that there is no balance I called the main line in order to get a solution, suddenly every time they come up with a reason, they mentioned that I spend them towards a bridge in *************, which is doesn't make any sense, I was to over a week in ***************, that all, one of the supervisor stated that was a mistake from one if their agent and that also happened with different customers, and he apologized to me and promised me for a refund, which is never happened.My transponder number is :0490789510102.This is ridiculous specially when the customer service stated that they don't have any records. If I spent all the money show me the electronics prove and when I crossed South of *******.They will never approved it.Business Response

This company works with Sunpass and ***** ******************************* I used the toll back in December 2021. Their transponder wasn't working again, so they used pay by plate instead of the transponder. The license plate was attached to my ********************** account so it shouldn't have made a difference. I had ran out of funds on my prepaid sunpass account so I owed them $5 or so. When I realized that I owed money on my account it was paid off. Sunpass sent the amount owed to collections, but didn't clear it off their website stating I still owed them. So I paid Sunpass the amount owed. When I tried to renew my registration this company said that I owed them money. When I asked them for the dates they provided the dates that had already been paid off. I originally owed $5 to them, but they are trying to charge me $44 for the original $5 owed. I asked them if they had bought the debt from Sunpass and they said no which means that the money I sent to sunpass directly should have covered it. I then told them that they have no right to place a hold on my account if they do not own the debt. They refused to remove the hold from my registration. They told me to submit a dispute on their website. Their website doesn't work and does not allow you to submit a dispute. No matter how many times you submit the info it will not go through. I tried from 3 different browsers on my phone and on my laptop. However, it will allow you to send them money. They told me that my only option was to either drop it off at their office which was 1.5 hours away or I could mail it. So I mailed it to them on Dec 26. I called Jan 3, **** and they said my documents hadn't been received yet, however they would go ahead and open up the dispute for me over the phone. I called back Jan 5 and the docs had been received. They said to call back on Jan 8 for an update. Called back Jan 8 and they said I need to file a dispute again. It's been 3 weeks of dealing with this and I'm fed up with them.Business Response

As of today, SunPass parking is attempting to charge me $267 for five days parking in economy lot at PBI. it should be $45 for five days at $9 per day.. They first charged my card $156 for 13 days in garage at $13. I called my card company and them and said I am owed $111. Then SunPass even more absurdly charges me $111 on the site instead of giving it back to me!. Fortunately I cancelled my card for this reason and disabled transponder. This is still unresolved as of 12/19. **************** is non existent.Business Response

Hello,Transaction date: 11/21/2023 Amount: $54.64 & **** (& they're probably adding more.)I added (3) cars to the sunpass & had the auto fill, for when the balance is low, it automatically adds money to the account. Then, I get a bill in the mail stating that I owe money. When I review the acct, 2 out of the 3 cars are not in the system. The bill are from those cars that were removed. Mind you,this is the 2nd time that it's happened. The 1st time, I did not complain. I went ahead & added the (2) cars, again, & made the payment. A month later I get another bill for the same cars that I added. When I go back to account, cars are not in the system (for the 3rd time).Acct# ********Business Response

I disagree with Sunpass response.
Was advised that the toll balance was when my E pass account was negative but upon reviewing my E-PASS account, it charges me negative for the same tolls Im being charged at Sunpass as I have already paid for these tolls for the negative balances in order to bring my E pass account to positive so I am being charged twice. Please remove this balance at Sunpass as I am not paying these alleged tolls twice ????

I am rejecting this response because:After reviewing my statements, Ive seen that as my E-PASS account has been to the negative charges ( same charges alleged from Sunpass ) as Ive had run low on my balance. In order to bring my ***** account to the positive I have pay the negative balance in order to add more money, so Ive come to the conclusion that Sunpass wants me to pay them as well, since the tolls they are charging me have already been covered by my ***** negative balances when I have paid them already are the same tolls balance Sunpass is charging me. ************ refuse to speak with the assigned representative bc we are going back and forth with no agreement of me showing that I have paid as she is convinced that she is right. With this being said, *************** with my attorney to start a suit on this matter as I feel being abused for demanding me to pay those tolls twice since Sunpass has a known reputation of being sued the same reading I am complaining here at the BBB, for abuse of billing and poor customer service.
Thank you.
