So I've been in King and Snohomish county now for basically a decade, and even though I have a G2G account, and have had for years, has this thing ever worked?

I just got another mailed toll bill for crossing 520 from Bellevue to Seattle a couple weeks ago. So I go check my G2G account, and sure as hell, all of my vehicles license plates are registered in the system, I walked outside and looked in my pickup, and their little "tag" is right there on the windshield where it belongs, the balance available on the account is more than sufficient to cover the toll.

I don't mind paying the tolls when I use the services (this post isn't a complaint about the tolls themselves), but what use is this registration system, when it seems like I get mailed a friggin toll bill probably 50% of the time I do something that requires me to pay a toll, and manually have to go pay the bloody thing?

I've never been mailed a bill and I don't have a balance with them. At the end of the month, they charge my card for my tolls.

I have my account setup to auto-deduct if I get lower then $10, refreshing an extra $100. I don't have any sticker - just the plate, make, and model in my account. Since setting this up years ago I have not had any issues.

Might have to reach out to their help team to figure out wtf is going on?
