Companion Plus (CVO4: Prepaid/Postpaid)
This account is for customers with
existing accounts with other E-ZPass agencies that want postpaid billing, may qualify for
toll volume discounts, and want to purchase Pennsylvania Turnpike transponders.
Annual usage on the Pennsylvania Turnpike must be at least $5,000.* This option
requires a surety bond in an amount equal to two months invoices or a minimum of
$5,000*, whichever is greater. In lieu of a surety bond, the Pennsylvania Turnpike will
accept a non-interest bearing certified or cashier’s check. Your E-ZPass usage on the
Pennsylvania Turnpike will be invoiced monthly. This invoice is only eligible for a toll
volume discount if payment is received by the 24th of each month. Discounts will not
be applied to invoices on accounts with outstanding balances as of the date of the
invoice and will not be applied to or include tolls charged to the Customer’s prepaid
account. The PTC E-ZPass Customer Service Center accepts checks, EFT, cash (walkin
only), or money orders for payment of invoices. Invoices cannot be paid by credit
card. Invoices must be paid within 30 days to avoid interest charges and will include a
monthly service fee (see E-ZPass Commercial Vehicle Addendum – Fees and
Charges).
A prepaid balance is required for added PTC transponders which are used for travel on
other agency roadways offering E-ZPass. An initial payment of 45 days worth of
charges or $100*, whichever is greater, is required. This is the minimum amount
needed to replenish your prepaid account. Replenishment automatically takes place
when your E-ZPass account balance reaches a low balance value of 20%* of the
replenishment amount or less. Transactions posted against the prepaid balance are
not eligible for volume discounts. The replenishment amount will be increased if an
account needs to be replenished more than twice a month for credit card replenishment
or three times a month for ACH. Replenishment must be set up using a primary and a
secondary form of automatic payment (either two credit cards, two bank accounts or
one of each). Please note that only other agency transactions for the added PTC
transponders will be charged against this prepaid balance.
