So NYC just came out with an app that you can pay for meters with. Great for NY'ers etc.

Seems you prepay an amount to keep in the "wallet". you can put up to $150 in it at a time. SEems like something that should give you the credit. Will test $25 now (the smallest amount) and will advise.

Anyone with experience on hotels.com gift cards? Friend of mine said they were coding as business?
ETA just checked it goes through cashstar.

Read through the thread, but did not see if there is a final answer if NY EzPass are currently working for prepaid loads.

Manually load it and you should be fine - seems like a 98% chance.

For most people it works, make a small test load.

Received a travel credit for iPass charge last week. Unclear if for 2016 or 2017 since received card only last week. Through SM they say they changed my close date to 12/28 however online it shows my due date is still feb 5 (should be 1/25 with new close date)

Any ideas on how to confirm year which travel
Credit is for?

I bought a prepaid card to pay meters with.  It codes as "government" so it won't work for the travel credit.

Also the first one I asked it in wasn't the correct thread so I assume you would have pointed that out had I not posted twice

My new card showed up in my chase login. the last 4 digits and a due date of feb 12.  Oh, no!
So I sm'd and asked for the due date to be moved to the end of the month. They wrote back saying the due date has to be the 1-28th of the month. 
So I picked the 27th so the card will close in Dec.  But I was worried that I wouldn't get the card with enough time to use it before the due date. 
As I was reading the last Chase sm, ding dong- my card arrived!

They told you that they changed  the due date to the 28th of January?

My due date is the 27th and my bill closes on the 2nd of Jan.  I missed that when I read the sm earlier in a hurry.  So, thanks to  your bringing it to my attention, I've just asked them to "move the bill date to the 25, and then my bill would close in December and give me a fresh start in Jan."  We'll see if that works.  I already spent $300 tonight. on my EZpass.
