Complaint Review: Texas Tollways

 I received a Notice of Violation from Texas Tollways without ever having gotten a bill or a 2nd notice which they say they send before a Violation.  I have had the same PO Box for 10 years so I don't know what the problem was.  I tried calling for 4 days straight and got repeated busy signals, then when I finally would get through and asked for a representative the system hung up on me.  No problem I thought I'll e-mail.  After several e-mails and NO answers I decided I best pay or end up in court.  So a $5.05 toll ended up costing $25.05 because EACH toll booth is a violation and each violation is $5.00 fee.  WHAT A CROCK!  This is a racket.  I found out from other people I know that this is the MODE OF OPERATION for Texas Tollways.  Don't know if they don't send the bills or send them to incorrect address on purpose or what.  But I can tell you I will NEVER drive on their Tollways again.  I will make sure I leave early enough to fend the regular freeways.  I wondered why there was NO ONE on the Tollway.  Guess all the locals (because I am not) know about this SCAM and AVOID this like the PLAGUE!  You know what they say BUYER BEWARE!  SO NOW you have been warned!  AVOID the Texas Tollway system.
