We would like to once again offer our sincere apologies to our customers and many other parties for the inconvenience caused by the widespread ETC system failure that occurred on Expressway managed by Central Nippon Expressway Company Limited from Sunday, April 6th to Monday, April 7th.
Among the toll booths where the outage occurred, there was one that continued to communicate wirelessly with ETC, and after checking the billing data, it was found that the data was normal. For the customers who used the tolls, payment procedures are currently being carried out through the card companies, etc. (You will soon receive a bill).
In light of the seriousness of the confusion and inconvenience caused to our customers, we have decided to provide a refund to customers who passed through the affected toll gates and paid the toll at a later date in the form of an ETC mileage service rebate of the amount of the toll used, a reduction in the amount charged, or the sending of a QUO card.
<Rebate summary>
[For customers who have already paid and those who will receive invoices in the future]
At a later date, we will provide you with an ETC mileage service rebate equal to the amount of your usage fee, reduce your bill, or send you a QUO card.

[Customers who have requested payment by ETC credit card, ETC personal card, credit card (Note 1), or cash]
Since the amount of the refund will be the same as the usage fee that would have been charged, we have decided not to charge you any usage fees. Thank you very much for your inquiry.
