You can pay your toll up to 8pm the day after.

Check their website for instructions on how to pay.

Either go in to pretty much any news agents or garage and pay them €3 - nearly anywhere that does phone credit can do this - or call 1890 50 10 50 and give them a credit or Laser card to pay €3. Need to do this after you've go across but before 8pm the next day. This is each way so if you cross it twice, it'll be €6.

is there anyway i can pay the 3 euros before hand?
how do i do it in a newsagents?
is there a way i can pay it through credit like the new parking things?
eg txt a number with your reg and theyl take it out of your credit?

No, you need to pay afterwards on the system where its €3.

Not sure what you mean by pay credit?

If you have a credit or debit card, you can register your car on eflow.ie and it will charge you €2.50 a go on to the card.

Yep, just snaps your reg plate debits the number of runs x 2.50 first week of every month. I use this option myself as i don't use the bridge alot

You can view the transactions online also

you finding that to be the experience ?

I have heard of very few garages doing the €3 pay method, only the ones who do payzone are doing it (aka Alyphrya) the margin on it is pathetic 3 cents a transaction so a lot of places are not bothering, its not worth the time and till queues it causes.

I've a tag (had one since ages back, not just since this happened) so I've not actually any specific experience of where does and doesn't do it...

Probably a stupid question i know
