| How Do I Pay My Citylink Toll In Melbourne |
Didn't Have an Account or Pass? No Sweat!
If you just whizzed through the toll booth without any fancy gadgets or pre-arrangements, there are still a couple of options:
QuickTip: Revisit key lines for better recall.
The Back-Dater: You've got nine days from the day you used CityLink to be a hero to your wallet. Set up a Linkt account (the folks who manage CityLink) and backdate the start date to cover your trip. This is your most painless option, so get on it, champ!
The Invoice Waiter: Patience is a virtue, especially if you're low on funds. You can wait for the toll invoice to arrive in the mail (it can take up to four weeks). Just be prepared for a bit of a late fee sting on top of the toll itself.
Remember: The longer you wait, the more it hurts!
Already a Linkt Account Holder? You're Halfway There!
If you're a savvy toll-payer with a Linkt account, then you're already ahead of the game. Just make sure you've added the licence plate of the car you used on CityLink to your account. Easy peasy!
QuickTip: Pause before scrolling further.
Top Tip: Linkt offers a variety of discounts and plans, so check out their website to see if you can save some cash in the long run.
