Too bad they don't have a "negative" star rating. Seriously. The state allows this organization, which is nothing more than a revenue generation mechanism and everyone with a nickels worth of sense knows it, way too much power, and also gives no oversight to their heinous practices.
Full disclosure: I have a TollTag account, I didn't want one, but I finally had to succumb to Satan. This post does not involve my toll tag.

March 3 2018: I sell a truck to someone else. I had purchased a new vehicle the previous day.
March 17 2018: I go to TXDMV and let them know I no longer own nor possess this truck.
April 3 2018: someone incurs 4 tolls on the DNT. I subsequently get the bill.
I contacted them via phone, explained that I no longer owned the vehicle and that I had notified the state of the sale. The rep on the other end was unsympathetic and obvious working from a script. So I faxed them a copy of the bill, along with the confirmation email from TXDMV that I had notified them of the sale.
I was told that this wasn't acceptable, and that I needed to provide a "title history". Problem is, it cost more to get a title history than the damn toll bill. So I ended up admitting defeat and paying it.
One of these days, someone is gonna sue NTTA into Oblivion. When they do, I'm throwing a block party and you're all invited. They're nothing more than a legalized shakedown.
Toll roads are a reality in Texas. I get it. But to stiff good folks out of money they're not obligated to pay is basically a mob tactic.
