Thank you!

They probably will. It's the government a never moving, all knowing, forever memory entity.

I live in pa too and take my wife to wrk thru the toll. I wonder if one day they will bill me but nothing yet. Would u kno if their is a way to find out?

They just hit me, pay that toll, I didn’t even know I owed that much like it’s crazy

I texted you to scan or photograph and e-mail to me any paperwork you have on the issue and upon review I will get back to you with a free phone consultation.

First off, let this be a lesson to anyone who sees this - NEVER co-sign a loan. This includes student loans and Parent Plus loans for your kid's college. When someone needs a co-signer, the bank is literally telling you that they know the person is not going to re-pay them. So the co-signer gets 100% of the risk with 0% of the benefit. That said, the only way tolls are accruing under your name is if you are not only the co-signer, but also either the registered owner, or the co-registered owner. Clearly your niece is highly irresponsible and has no respect for you. Here you are, helping her out with a vehicle, and she is causing you serious legal problems. The FIRST THING you need to figure out is whom the vehicle is titled to. It can be registered to you but not titled to you, or you can be the titled owner, or the co-titled owner. If you are the sole titled owner guess what, it's your car not hers. This can cause you untold problems, and even if you are just on the registration it can cause you problems, because for example, suppose she stops paying the auto insurance - guess what - the DMV suspends YOUR license as a registered owner of a car without insurance. If she gets into an accident YOU are liable as the registrant of the vehicle. If I were you I would have a family meeting, make her produce the registration and title, and then do what you have to do to get your name off of the title and registration, and also make her pay the damn tolls. You'll still be a co-signer of the loan, but that's a separate issue. If the car is titled solely to you, it's your car so she has little leverage you can just take it from her. If it's co-titled no so much leverage. Whatever you do, you need to put a boot up her ass and fix this thing ASAP.

That’s false

From what I understand, the class action lawsuit was dismissed on the defendant's summary judgment motion.

There is a federal class action lawsuit in federal court, it was dismissed on summary judgment in favor of EZ Pass, and the dismissal is being challenged on appeal.

@@michaelpalumbo4880 yeah, I'm aware of that one. I discovered their website is misleading the customers about violations when they try to look it up.

​@Ahmed Hassan that was my problem too with the website! You couldn't look back and pay bills that were from the month before or something like that. One thing led to another and now I owe them 28,000 I think.

It's probably for tolls that you accrued and failed to pay after you settled your arrearages. Call us we can straighten it out for you 914-777-2990.

The NYC Marshall's will impound any car that is parked on a street and the vehicle registration is expired or suspended. It's legal.

@@michaelpalumbo4880 due to non-payment of tolls?

Good luck with that.

Huge amount? I have clients that owe $80,000 and even more. My suggestion is to pay the tolls and violations and more importantly figure out why you are not timely paying your tolls and fixing the problem so that it does not happen again.

Yes give me a call 914-777-2990.

Tell ez pass to send you a bill. Trust me on this. Because what constitutes a bill is when value is exchanged. You can only legally and lawfully pay a bill, not notices. Ez pass sends you a notice not a bills. They always say “payment due”. But they need to send a bill. Take it to court and pay money to fight it, even if it costs a lot to file.

And most of the tickets that i paid with the 900 dollars was from new jersey, HOW IS THAT POSIBLE, WHY THEY DON’T tell me that i have to GIVE THEM MORE MONEY

WHY THEY TRANSFER MY TICKETS TO NEWW JERSEY EZZ PASS, if MY ACCOUNT IT’s FROM NEW YORK EZZ PASS

They can't "transfer" it because you are dealing with separate tolling authorities. When they said "you are set" they meant only for that tolling authority that you were settling at that time.

Thank you!

The Port Authority DOES have a payment plan, but you must escalate your matter directly to the Port Authority through an application process. I have represented dozens of clients in making the application and getting them on a payment plan. If you need help in this regard give us a call 914-777-2990.

@@mando73204 It is a complex matter, and cannot be settled by going back and forth on RU-vid. In fact, I need to do an in depth initial interview and consultation, which I will have to charge you for. My fee for the initial consultation that you will need is $250.00 for up to 1/2 an hour of time and work. There is a chance that during that consult I can figure out the solution and provide you with it and there will be no further legal fees or services necessary. If you would like to avail yourself of that initial service, e-mail your name, phone number, and e-mail address to me to Michael@MPalumboLaw.com. Put in the subject line "Mando from RU-vid." I will flip back to you a retainer agreement and a link to pay via credit or debit. Thanks!

It was nice talking to you. We'll resolve your issue well before your registration is suspended.

That’s not true they’ll negotiate

@@michaelpalumbo4880 do u know when that grace period is over ?

@@ChrisHaze_ No I don't click the link above.

We can be reached at 914-777-2990.

It worked out well for you.

If you would like a verbal consultation whereby I can answer that and any other question you have about how to handle the toll debt call my office at 914-777-2990. I can send you a retainer agreement for a consultation. The fee is $375.00.

My experience has been that once you default on a payment plan they don't allow you go on another one. If you cannot afford it and your vehicle is again suspended you can discharge the debt in bankruptcy and they DMV will have to lift the suspension once you declare bankruptcy. If you want to discuss that option give me a call 914-777-2990.

@@michaelpalumbo4880 I've given a call and they said someone Would reach out to me within a couple hours

Where did u call to get on a payment plan?

​@@KJcinemasplz tell me who to call for a payment plan

First off, I know Peter Merani and their lawyers and staff well. I have known them for over 20 years when I defended collection actions against insurance companies and they were representing the plaintiffs. They are not goons they are a professional law firm representing a client and actually very easy to deal with. They are transparent and helpful, however they are not there to represent your interests but that of their client. This is why you should have your own attorney representing you. Any lawsuit or collection action is likely NOT over what you settled from outstanding tolls from between 2014-2019. They are likely notifying you of debt you owe subsequent to what you previously settled, or debt you owe to a different tolling agency than what you previously settled. Dealing with a tolling issue is a minutiae, attention to detail activity. You can't make gross statements that you already paid without knowing exactly the tolling authority and the dates, times, locations, and amounts of what the tolling authority, through their counsel or collection agent, is saying that you owe. Once you know EXACTLY what they are alleging you owe, you can produce proof of prior payment to resolve the issue. Should you decide to hire me to represent you, I will get spreadsheets showing the dates, times, locations, and amounts you owe. Whatever is still outstanding, I can get you either a reduction or a payment plan, or sometimes both a reduction and payment plan, depending on nuances too detailed to go into here. If you want to discuss having us represent you, and slamming the lid on your tolling problems once and for all, call me at 914-777-2990.

Sound like it's from the Port Authority. Just because you don't have an EZ Pass does not mean you don't have to pay tolls. The toll plaza photographs your plate and mails you a bill. If you are saying you never drove in the Northeast then that's a problem that needs to be remediated. If you did accrue the toll just pay it. If you did not if you want to hire my office I can review the bill, confirm its origin, and consult you on who to contact and what you need to do to dispute it and report the error. My fee for that work and consultation is only $375.00. I know it's a lot more then the fine, but if this is s mistake there are probably a lot more bills coming and it will snowball. If you want to retain us call my office at 914-777-2990.

For $625.00 I sell a white paper that gives step-by-step instructions on where and how to apply for a payment plan, and in addition explains how to stay any pending registration suspension, the questions to ask to get the right documents and proofs, and the process you will have to undertake in executing a signed stipulation of settlement. If you want to buy the paper call my office at 914-777-2990.

I agree contact me we can help.

@@michaelpalumbo4880 its unconstitutional and also there's no statute to cover the new tolls only the old one so hes right

@@certifiedjumello486 No, he's not right and no, there doesn't have to be a statue for something to be constitutional. There is nothing unconstitutional about electronic toll collection. In fact, please cite your authority for the proposition that in order for something to be constitutional there must be a statue covering it.

What we do for clients is get an inventory of what they owe, reduce the violation amount, and get them on a payment plan if they cannot pay it off in lump sum. Once the first payment is made on a payment plan the DMV will lift the registration suspension. If you would like to discuss hiring us to represent you in doing this call me at 914-777-2990.

They will eventually suspend that plate.

I don't know you would have to hire our office to research the issue to give you an answer.

There is no MTA office you can go to or any phone number you can call.

@@michaelpalumbo4880 The firm of Paul Merani is not reputable and stole my money . 2,000 dollars . They are not to be trusted and you stated in one of your comment responses that they are an honest firm . Now I still owe the money and owe the bank the money that was stolen that will lead to me being flat broke until I am retired . Thanks alot man

@@AbandonedNorthJersey Wrong. Us lawyers are the most regulated and hated profession on the planet. Do you really think that Peter Merani, who makes money hand over fist doing it right, would "hee-hee / haa-haa" risk everything by stealing a mere $2,000.00? The problem is not Merani the problem is people who are unrepresented don't realize that the law firm representing a client is adversarial to you and your interests. The problem is not them it's you. You signed a stipulation of settlement that you did not understand, and still owe money. The settlement you signed was for a single tolling authority for an inventory of tolls from one date to another date. What you owe money for is tolls OUTSIDE OF the dates you settled for. It could be for that same tolling authority but different dates, or for a totally different tolling authority. Go back to the document you signed, go find a quite corner of your home, get a cup of coffee, and read the agreement you signed line-by-line and digest the agreement and understand what you settled. Then, find out what you still owe for. I guarantee they are not for one in the same of which you settled. And next time, hire a lawyer to represent you.

@@michaelpalumbo4880 I did finally get receipt of payment today but yesterday received payment reminder as it was due by today and that made me get nervous . I read the agreement I signed and all is good but only for period from when it started and when it ended because I was a dope by ignoring it . Your right I still owe 3 more violations outside of the agreement that still need attention .The problem I had was that I was getting a payment reminder one day before the agreement expired and that sounded to me like I was getting duped as my bank informed me that the check was cashed days earlier , thank you for your time and response...

The MTA and Port Authority routinely arrest people for toll evasion, the charge being theft of services. They also trespass people from roadways and sue for arrearages in tolls. This is why it's so important for people to get ahead of the problem and pay their arrearages.

But what if I give my car lease away and don’t own a car ? Would they still seek a arrest

Im at 14k 😞😞 been calling them for weeks and they won’t help

You are wrong. What you did was call the phone number on the suspension notice, which is 718-313-9425, and they told you that the Port Authority does not offer payment plans. That is not true. That number DOES NOT go to the Port Authority or the DMV. That number is for the Customer Service Center, which is a 3rd party collection agency called Conduent. Conduent is a collection agency that all three NYS tolling authorities (MTA, NYS Thruway, and Port Authority) use to resolve the tolling arrearages when the toll payer is pending registration suspension. Each of those tolling authorities gives Conduent different authority to settle the matter. The Port Authority DOES NOT allow Conduent to execute on a payment plan. What I do for my clients is kick the issue directly up to the Port Authority and negotiate a payment plan settlement agreement directly with the Port Authority. Thus far this year, through June 5, 2023 I have represented about 20 clients and obtained for them a payment plan. If you or anyone else needs a payment plan with the Port Authority, give us a call at 914-777-2990.

I was going to delete this comment but I'd rather call you out for the disingenuous disgrace you are for leaving such a false comment. You called me yesterday (November 5th) a bundle of confused anxiety. You had already gotten for yourself the maximum discount available, I explained that to you, and told you that there was nothing more I could do, and told you the steps to take to execute on payment and have the matter resolved. I also explained to you how the registration suspension gets lifted once you commence payment. You then called me back with another question which I also answered. You then texted me with a redundant question which I again answered. You then texted a second, redundant question which told me that you were clearly in over your head to resolve this matter on your own. It was in response to that text that I explained to you that in order for me to continue to assist you that you would have to hire my office for a fee of only $750.00 so that I could answer any questions you may have, walk and assist you through the process, and ensure that you get the job done correctly. I am happy to provide free advice to persons in your situation who for one reason or another it does not make sense for them to hire me. However, my gratuitous advice has limits. Where do you get the gall to believe that i should be at your beck and call for any question that you have free of charge? You have no respect for the fact that the advice I gave you is the inventory I sell, and that I have actual, paying clients whose cases I am obligated to work on. I spent likely 10 minutes with you for free, and more importantly gave you the roadmap of how to resolve your problem yourself. When it became apparent to me that you could not digest and comprehend what to do, which is common because it is complex, I offered you a service to resolve your issue, a service that quite frankly is downright cheap and many people have availed themselves of and resolved there issue in days when they were trying for months to accomplish. If you have tolling issue that needs resolution, judge for yourself my responsiveness and the assistance I provide my clients. Give us a call anytime 24 / 7 at 914-777-2990. We are always willing to help.

@@michaelpalumbo4880 once you heard my voice there was nothing you could do !!!!! 😂😂😂😂

@@Kitathegang Correct, you had essentially gotten yourself the maximum reduction you were going to get, I told you that, and told you how to execute on payment, did not ask for money or for you to hire me, and bid you a good day. You then called back with another question, which I answered, again without asking for payment, and again bid you a good day. You then texted me a question, which I answered via text, again without asking you for payment. You then texted me yet another question, which I had already answered, and it was at that point that I realized that you were thoroughly confused so I offered you a service so that I could thoroughly consult you and walk you through the process so that your matter would be resolved. I really don't know what I did wrong in this situation and cannot think of why you are complaining about the FREE ADVICE that I gave you.
