There's another benefit to the Sunpass and having the credit card automatically feeding it prepaid amounts thru the website. I once used a new car to go to the airport and forgot I didn't have Sunpass in it yet. I drove thru the first two sunpass lane toll booths without paying. As always, the system photographs the license plate and mails the car owner a bill for the toll with the fine later.
Well, later on when I went onto the website to update the info on the car and license plate, I saw that I could pay the skipped tolls with fines there, using the credit card we keep on file to feed the prepaid amounts to the Sunpass.
Better yet, using the credit card on file meant that the two tolls due with fines were only $0.77 each, instead of the $7+ with fine on each that came in the mail. So the fine was waived by paying it that way instead of mailing them a check.
Nice!
