Travelling with a suspended account
To ensure your toll road travel is always covered, it's important to make sure your:
- Tag is correctly installed and working
(Find out what to do if your tag isn't beeping) - Account's linked payment method is correct and up-to-date
If overdue payments on your account aren't made, your account will be suspended. You can reactivate your account by paying the outstanding amount.
If you travel while your account is suspended, the vehicle's owner will receive a toll invoice, which includes additional admin fees.

Add a taxi to your account after you travelled
You can cover past CityLink trips by up to 9 days after your first trip. Just note that Commercial Accounts are subject to a credit check, so you'll need an active account before you can cover past trips.
With Linkt accounts, you can't cover past trips on EastLink or the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Tunnel.
