Do you think its a requirement that to work for Linkt you have to get a lobotomy? Or do they exclusively hire people with single digit IQ? I traveled early June, noticed my tag didn't beep so I got home, logged a replacement tag, they go "No worries, we wont charge you for any tolls for the proceeding couple of days and until your new tag is confirmed received". Want to guess what I just received in the mail? If you guessed a toll invoice I have bad news for you: You are clearly too smart to work for Linkt. I try to be patient with call center staff, its not their fault they work for soul sucking corporations. But man we are 35 minutes in and they are still trying to tell me it is a valid invoice.
Heheh, they're smashing their heads against their desk because they prolly agree with you it's stupid, but they can't say that and have to keep repeating that's it's valid.
Escalate politely, and if speaking to a senior/TL doesnt work, there should be an ombudsman you can report to (though im not sure who in this case)
Fuck tollways.
Never trust a verbal promise not to charge.
It was in writing. That just made it all the more infuriating.
