How do you know which agency already has my current EZ Pass account?? Is it listed on the actual EZ Pass? I looked on my account online and found nothing. If you have a MTA EZ Pass what happens to that account? do you send back the Tags and close it out? Who thought that it could be so painful! |

1. Fill out a new EZPass application (you can get the application online either in a PDF printout, or fill it out online and then print that out): 2. Check off/fill out both the Port Authority Green Pass discount and the Thruway Green Pass discount (along with any other discounts you might want). 3. Send in your application, together with a copy of your Registration. 4. If all goes according to the apparent plan, you will receive one pretty green tag that has all the discounts you applied for linked into it. Then, return your existing white tag if you want to.

My Car: 2001 Prius Package: Base Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTM Awards: 0 Friends: 6 | Good News (for me at least)! ![]() After my initial rejection for a Port Authority Green Pass by the nitwits at the EZ Pass "Service" Center in Staten Island, I wrote a letter expressing my displeasure to Anthony Coscia, who is the Chairman of the Board of Commissioners of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. Last Friday, I received a reply from Stephen Sigmund, who is the Chief of the Public and Government Affairs Department at the Port Authority, apologizing for the "confusion" in the Green Pass program, and promising me that I would receive the Green Pass which I am clearly eligible for. Today in the mail, I received my Green EZ Pass from the EZ Pass "Service" Center, and I just attached it to my windshield! I will now send a letter to the nitwits at the EZ Pass "Service" Center asking them to link my Port Authority Green Pass to the New York State Thruway Authority's Green Pass Program so I can also get the hybrid vehicle discount on the New York State Thruway. I will see if this Green Pass works as advertised when I visit my father for Father's Day. If your application for a Port Authority Green Pass is rejected, don't bother wasting your time with the nitwits at the EZ Pass "Service" Center! Do as I have done and write a letter directly to the Chief of the Public and Government Affairs Department at the Port Authority at the following address: Stephen Sigmund Chief, Public and Government Affairs Port Authority of New York and New Jersey 225 Park Avenue South - 18th Floor New York, NY 10003-1604

My Car: 2008 Prius Package: #6 Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTM Awards: 0 Friends: 0 | So I was out running around today and decided to stop at the Yonkers EZ Pass Center. I haven't gotten my Permanent registration as of yet so I decided to try using my Temporary Registration. NO GO.... Wouldn't do it. They said I must wait for the "real" registration. |

They told me that you can only have one Green EZ Pass per hybrid vehicle, so once I was issued a Port Authority Green Pass, I was not allowed to obtain a second Green Pass for the same vehicle. After I received my Port Authority Green Pass, I wrote a letter to the EZ Pass Service Center on Staten Island asking them to link my Port Authority Green Pass to the NYS Thruway Authority Green Pass Plan. I haven't used my Green Pass on the Thruway yet, so I'm not sure if they ever bothered to link the two Green Pass Plans on my account. I will find out on Father's Day Weekend when I have to take the Thruway down the city! I'll keep you posted! Last edited by Bababooey; 06-02-2008 at 10:47 AM. Reason: Correction of some typos | |
