Lightbulb Sun Pass also works on EZ Pass Highways in Fl, BUT Word of caution!

Yes Sun Pass also works on EZ Pass Highways in Fl, BUT a Word of caution!

In Fl your license plate is only good for 10 yrs and then you are required to get a new plate and number. However, you Sunpass account is tied to your Fl Plate number and you will start getting Unpaid Toll notices with photos of your new plate if you weren't aware enough to update your sunpass account with your new plate # (My experience). I think they give you 30 days (don't quote me on the #) or so to go back and update your profile with the Plate number and date you acquired it so you don't have to pay the additional fee after you file a complaint (believe me your a lot better off doing this before you get the unpaid toll notices). However there is one more glitch. The glitch is that EZ pay unpaid toll notices don't accept the back update of license plates on SUNPASS and you will still have to send EZPAY a check for the unpaid tolls. You would think the DMV would give you a hint you had to do this but I think that is really a lot to ask.
