A Sydney mother has shocked hundreds of people after revealing how she was paid $348 for clicking a button on her phone.
The woman used the ServiceNSW app and claimed the toll waiver discount – a feature available to all New South Wales residents.
When she shared the insight on the North Shore Mums Facebook page, she was surprised by the amount returned.
“I just got a $348 toll rebate and it literally took two minutes! I don’t even use toll roads that much, so this was a pleasant surprise,” she wrote.
But there are several eligibility requirements, including a minimum annual spend of $375.
The woman used the ServiceNSW app and claimed the toll waiver discount. Motorists who spend more than $375 on tolls in a financial year can claim a 40 percent discount
