Purchasing SunPass?

[Fire14]

I-Pass DOES work in Indiana and Ohio... and the rest of the E-ZPass states. I drove to Gettysburg a couple of years ago and borrowed an I-Pass from a friend (who added my car to his account), and it work just fine in Indiana, Ohio, and Pennsylvania... and I saved a bunch on tolls!

Here's the link to start the ordering process: LINK
Note: Don't wait too long to try and respond to the order link they send you, I waited until the next day and the personal link they sent me the previous day was expired... trying the process again with the same e-mail doesn't fix the expiration!

Thanks and thank you for heads up on responding to link

Just an FYi to those thinking about picking up a transponder at a service area along the way, when I've looked into doing this I've found that the toll road authorities usually stated that it may take several hours after you activate a newly purchased transponder before it can be used. Additionally, they (E-ZPass for example) say that you also need to allow a few days before your transponder will be recognized by other toll roads and/or in other states that are part of their system.

I just ordered an I-Pass (E-ZPass) from Illinois (because they don't hit you with a monthly fee) because I can never remember to buy one in advance when we go to Chicago or Wisconsin. It's good to hear that Florida might be joining the same network soon.

I bought a transponder on 8/14 from Publix and phoned their telephone number to activate and put cash on acct. it was activated immediately.

Was going to buy the pass, glad I caught this thread. Hope they accept ezpass by our Oct trip!

One question

I've been told you're not 'supposed to' move the Ezpass transponder between vehicles, but I often do depending on which car I am using (truck for hauling, larger car for longer drives, etc.). Have yet to get a notice in the mail.

It's my understanding that in FL with the sun pass you need to link the license plate # to the responder.

Just wondering how it'll work with the Ezpass. No idea if they have an app or not. Haven't been on the website since I signed up years ago.

The Feds say it has to working by October 2016, but SunPass still has not said that it will meet that deadline.

No, everything from NC northward and IL eastward is. FL, SC, GA, & AL are not. Here's a map.

Everything might be working together by the time of your trip. If not, SunPass will take care of FL & GA.

You can move an E-Zpass transponder to a different vehicle, you just need to make sure that you go on-line first and add the the new plate to your account.
