While both roles involve interacting with toll system users, Toll Customer Service primarily focuses on assisting customers with inquiries, account management, and resolving issues remotely.

Both roles require good communication skills, but Toll Customer Service emphasizes remote support, whereas Toll Collection Agents work directly at toll points.
