Alamo and Toll Charges

[Ian Dee]

Thanks Ian, that's a comfort!
However what about the point re Alamo?
Would you know if I will also get charged by them as the number plate will be 'read'. ?

The system will recognise that you are using a transponder and therefore not pass on a duplicate bill to Alamo/you.

Thanks all
I took the transponder back to Publix and althiough I had openedthe plastic to get to the transponder they refunded it.
For $6 a trip period whilst over, it does not seem worth the bother of getting a transponder.
Incidentally, and by coincidence, we did not ues the tioll roads after the first day!

I took the transponder back to Publix and they refunded the money with no problem, even though I had opened the package.

On reflection it seemed worth paying the $ 2 per day. In fact we did not use any toll roads in our 3 week stay.

Useful to know how the system works though. On our next trip we can go though the Sun Pass lane and get to the villa quicker, though I take up the suggestion that it may be best to go a bit slower the first time!

Anyone know if there will be a flash or an alarm when it initally logs there is no transponder?
