407-ETR Billing Complaints

I had a Complaint, and got it Resolved!

I had a Dispute, and got it Settled!

And battled Customer Service and won!

There’s no need to go to Court.

You won’t lose your Driver’s License

You can try contacting the Better Business Bureau, but I suspect that they have heard it all before, and what can they do but make sure the 407-ETR’s name is on their list?

Especially if you live in Toronto, Markham or Mississauga.

Incorrect billings, and false or incorrect charges are nothing new to the 407-ETR. See for example this report in Tollroads News .

Individuals like me have documented their complaints .

The 407-ETR’s color scheme is blue, so it should not have been a surprise to me to receive, out of the blue – a bill for $697.75.

Tactics is what some call it. Phooey! “Racketeering” doesn’t even come close

I haven’t had a bill from the 407-ETR since October 2000 at the latest.

I haven’t driven on the 407-ETR since May 2000.

I haven’t owned a 407-ETR transponder since October 2000.

I haven’t owned a car since July 2003.

But on October 1st 2008 I received a bill for $607.75.

This is my story, taken from my written notes as events unfolded.
