  1. Hi, Darryl! MPTC Tollways are all pretty much EasyTrip expressways. Unfortunately, there are no other RFID installation sites other than what we’ve already listed here. Looking at EasyTrip’s site, their instructions really do point to motorists going to their sites that are already along the expressways.

    The last “hope” in Metro Manila was Shell Magallanes, but that’s already been closed at the start of September 🙁

    Here’s the thing, some of the toll plazas still do accept cash, given the staggered implementation of the contactless toll collection. It’s not exactly an answer to your query, but at least getting an RFID tag installed can be done by going in with cash, and then exiting with your brand spanking new RFID already.

  2. Pow’s passing will always be a tremendous loss to the entire community and his friends and family. We miss him, too. – Mikko, YugaAuto

  3. If you qualify for a 10-year Driver’s License validity (which we hope you do 🙂 ) it should be valid until 2032

  4. PHP 250.

    PHP 100, Application Fee + PHP 150 Student Permit Fee

  5. That’s not good at all, Gerry. It really is the aim of articles like this for our readers to come out and tell us about their own experiences. Sadly, not everyone is as lucky as others, even if we know that it’s not supposed to be about “luck” but about standardization across all LTO offices.

    Is there no other help desk that you can probably bring this issue to?
