                    @1st-Amendment:

                    you can't simply tax your way out of debt.

                    Govt is not introducing new tax on wealthy…It's coming out of existing revenue. They are reducing existing taxes on wealthy, while the national debt has ballooned. You don't need a degree in economics to understand the stupidity.

                    The point which you even made yourself in your reply to me is that how do you know where the peak of the Laffer curve is? If you don't know where it is then how can you say with any confidence if any change is good or bad. This is simple logic

                    You don't know that peak of Laffer curve either and you're the one who pointed it in favour of stage 3 tax cuts, which is even hilarious.

              What is? You haven't quoted anything even after demanding that I follow you crazy quote format, so this statement on it's own makes no sense.
              The thread so far is on basic economics. Read a book sometime so you don't sound so ignorant.

              Yes that works out well,

              It works out well for people willing to work. For most professions the pay rates are higher than here the cost of living is lower. So yes it does work out well for many people.

              If you don't commit crimes you won't go to jail. Do you find not committing crime a problem?

                Im not worried about being in trouble myself but I know that hungry and poor people do commit crimes because they are hungry. Revolutions like the French or Russia started because of these problems.

                Doesnt take a genius to understand this, from America to South Africa and so on. Australia isnt perfect but its far better than most of the world and this also means its far less violent.

                  I don't know if he's watched "Oliver Twist", which is a book of fiction, but I would say a good starting point to anyone "watching" a book of fiction is:

                  Pro-tip: It's not real.

                  Have you "watched" any other interesting books lately? If so, I have a great idea that involves flipping them open [content warning: contains "pages" and "words"].

Thats completely not the point - maybe one day you will learn how to really read.

                    Whether the characters are true or made up is irrelevant, the story of life back then is true enough.

        I don't understand why it is, but I grew up in Vic where we luckily aren't tolled basically everywhere.

    What a (profanity) joke. Why are we subsidizing this?? Be better to have free public transport.

    • nobro25 on 02/07/2023 - 17:13

      This subsidy is a drop in the ocean for the government, probably a few million at most.. Making Public Transport "free" that's billions of dollars from tax payers. Odds are it'll sacrifice more from healthcare and infrastructure to make free public transport.

      • Randolph Duke on 02/07/2023 - 17:16

        So small subsidies that only benefits those who can already afford toll roads is a good use of public money?

      • Jazstar on 03/07/2023 - 09:23

        It’s subsidising private companies and buying votes in certain areas with our taxes.

      • CowFrogHorse on 03/07/2023 - 14:07

        Making public transport free will save the government billions a year.

        For starters they pay over a $100M a year for just for the Opal software. It costs them even more to run all those machines all over the network for servicing, and even more for the guys who go and collect a few lousy coins from the ticket machine or to fix the credit card scanner and so on.

        The government also spends mega millions providing free police to do the stupid ticket inspecting. They are loosing money on this, to send 8 ticket inspectors together as a team costs over a $1000 an hour. They would have to fine 10 people just to break even so basically they are losing.

        Did i mention how much money they waste with the stupid passes for kids ? How much staff time at schools are wasted pretending to manage this ? It would be cheaper to just let all kids on for free. It would also make the busses faster and safer as people arent wasting time finding and putting passes and phones back in a pocket etc after getting on a bus.

        Lastly it costs the gov 10s of billions to have cars on the roads. All those tunnel projects ar enot free. Many of those people should be on a bus or train but avoid them for many reasons including slowness because of stupid ticketting systems. Thts not how you save money.

        The only reason they have ticket systems is so ceos in the transport companies can pretend they are making a profit and pay themselves bonuses instead of looking at the big picture and actually making things better for the Australian people.

      You mean the M5 cashback? If so, that is a much better deal. You'll get 90% back (less 10% GST). This scheme gives 40% back. If you already registered for M5 cashback, I think Toll relief already knows to subtract it from its tracking.

          It’s not the ‘Remove’ link you reach via OPs link. That option is to unlink your specific toll account but you need to remove the toll relief service from your ServiceNSW account.

          Once you’re logged into your ServiceNSW account, go to this link: https://account.service.nsw.gov.au/manage/remove

          There should be an option to remove Toll Relief. Follow that through and then reactivate/reconnect Toll Relief to your account

    Doesn’t look like you can claim if you have an interstate eTag like EastLink

    While receiving a refund may provide temporary relief, it fails to address the root problem at hand. The fundamental issue lies in the government's inclination to prioritize the toll company's interests over conducting a thorough cost review that could potentially reduce expenses for the general public. Implementing rebates ultimately grants more leverage to the toll company, as the government can continuously offer larger rebates, potentially using them as a means to secure votes.

    In the absence of rebates, the toll company would be compelled to substantiate their pricing and ultimately arrive at a more affordable rate that aligns with what people can afford to pay.

    Many individuals are ensnared in the misconception that the government is capable of resolving all aspects of their lives, instead of addressing the root cause by approaching the responsible companies directly.

    Anyone in the same boat and has previously successfully claimed through an eligibility review?

    • Moved to Sydney 1+ years ago and have been using my Linkt account
    • Opened Linkt account in VIC 5+ years ago
    • Tried to connect ServicesNSW to Linkt, but was told that I need a NSW Linkt account
    • Need to close VIC Linkt and open a new NSW Linkt
    • Ineligible for automatic Toll Relief Rebate (though meet all other requirements)
    • Contacted Customer Support and advised to request an eligibility review later in 2023.
    • skid on 03/07/2023 - 14:01

      Yes, same boat but QLD, not VIC and have always been in Sydney. Is this necessary: "Need to close VIC Linkt and open a new NSW Linkt" ? Will you get a new e-tag? Is there a cost? Can you transfer the payment details to the NSW account?

        I had a QLD Linkt account. I was told I couldn't get the rebate at all - needed to close my QLD account and then open a NSW Linkt account. So future tolls could be then rebated.

        Unfortunately no easy transfer - need to open a new account with a new e-tag. No cost involved.

        • cosmogirlsz on 07/07/2023 - 07:57

          Thanks for letting me know! I'll try for an eligibility review anyway, though I'm sure it'll get rejected.

  • jrphqc on 03/07/2023 - 13:53

    Anybody getting an issue with "Check your MyServiceNSW Account Details" page? I've been hitting continue and nothing is happening for some reason. Anything I missed?

  • CowFrogHorse on 03/07/2023 - 14:10

    What a waste of money.

    Whenever the government subsidizes or contributes too something like this the next year everything goes up.

    WHY doesnt take a genius to figure out the companies figure the public can afford their own funds along with the government grant. It happened with child care and so on, when the government started contributing everything overnight jumped up by the same amount and in the end everybody lost, because the money has to come from somewhere and not everyone gets the grants.

    The only solution to reduce travel time is to tax employeers for wasting employee time or force them to pay people for the time they spend travelling. Youc an be sure when they do this amazingly people will be able to work from home and so on.

    Awesome $247 back.
    So, has this been running for previous financial years? I am thinking I am missing out. <sad face>

    • kerfuffle on 04/07/2023 - 19:44

      It only started (in terms of being able to claim money) in January this year.

  • Smut on 19/09/2023 - 01:10

    Hi i only go on the the m5 for work. Can you claim both m5 cashback and toll relief. Or do we have to choose?

    • kerfuffle on 19/09/2023 - 01:57

      Yes. Your M5 spend is excluded from toll relief if you claim the M5 cashback

  • sd679560 on 03/12/2023 - 12:58

    Hi all

    Newly moved to Sydney. Can we claim this toll relief AND the m5 cashback? I’m already registered for m5 cashback

    • kerfuffle on 03/12/2023 - 13:14

      Yes. As per my previous comment, your M5 spend is excluded from toll relief if you claim the M5 cashback. The scheme is changing from January though

      • sd679560 on 03/12/2023 - 13:40

        Thanks mate.

        How is it changing from Jan?

        • kerfuffle on 03/12/2023 - 13:45

          It's a $60 weekly cap. Not sure how it works but for me, who can spend one week without using any tolls, then rack up $80 worth the next, I think I'll be worse off under the new scheme
