The law in Queensland permits Linkt to charge a “reasonable” charge for their cost of administering and collecting unpaid tolls.

However, when a motorist fails to pay a toll, Linkt charges them an initial administrative fee of $8.50 in addition to the toll and if that fee is not paid within 10 days, the administration charge rises to $23.81 for every notice.

Hilton Bradley Lawyers consider these administrative charges to be excessive and not reflective of “reasonable” cost as permitted by Queensland law.

As such, the class action asserts that the majority of administrative charges paid over the last six years should be refunded to Queensland toll road users.

You may be a Class Member if you paid an administrative fee on a toll notice or fine issued by a Queensland toll road operator in the last six years.
