A woman says her husband avoids daily toll administrative fees when renting cars. But folks have some doubts that it actually works<\/p>\n
TikTok user Saraida Cecilia (@eauxfamily) posted a clip detailing the toll tag “hack” that her husband employed when they rented a vehicle. According to the text overlay, this trick helps to curb toll fees in a rental.<\/p>\n
“Husband Behavior: finding the toll tag on a rental and registering it with his toll tag to not get charged extra,” she writes.<\/p>\n
“I would have never thought about the toll tag, just would have received the toll bill when it\u2019d get mailed to the house,” Cecilia adds.<\/p>\n
According to Cecilia\u2019s husband\u2019s logic, any tolls are billed to his account, and any presumed surcharges levied by the rental company are bypassed.<\/p>\n
Several people commented to say they don\u2019t think Cecilia’s husband’s method for avoiding administrative toll fees rental companies charge is the best practice.<\/p>\n
One remarked that this could be a surefire way to get hit with myriad charges after the fact. “Has he done this before? I feel like you are gonna keep getting charged because the rental company would have to go in and add it back when you are done, not sure that will happen automatically,” they wrote.<\/p>\n
This same thought was echoed by another person, who penned, “Don\u2019t forget to undo it when done.”<\/p>\n

One woman claimed it backfired. “Actually it doesn’t work! I thought this same thing. Tried it and they still send the bill to the rental company. They find out it doesn’t match the vehicle owner and then you owe higher fees,” she wrote.<\/p>\n However, another person said that it worked for them without a hitch. “Actually you can. I added a rental to my own N.C. Quick Pass and didn\u2019t have any issues, just set the dates correctly with the correct plate and it\u2019s a non issue,” they said.<\/p>\n Another user wrote that this technique is region-specific. “Depends on the state. In MD, PA, and DE it will charge to your account as long as you have the funds,” they said.<\/p>\n Others who commented on the post expressed frustrations with the added toll fees charged by car rental companies.<\/p>\n Do Not Pay<\/a><\/em> says that Hertz “can multiply the cost of\u2026rental[s] with stacking charges.” The outlet says that oftentimes these charges aren\u2019t listed and come in the form of a “surprise 3 weeks after your rental ends.” Do Not Pay<\/em> went on to list some charges, including the “daily fee for toll roads” and a charge for using Hertz\u2019s own PlatePass toll tag. It also claims that using a single toll road once initiates a charge for every day thereafter under your rental agreement.<\/p>\n
