Pango: Pay for Paking by phone . Israel
« on: September 10, 2013, 07:19:32 AM »
I keep hearing about Pango where you register your cars plate number and call *4500 and they charge your cc. It sounds like a much better system then looking for a few shekel and running back and forth to the parking ticket machine. If only NY would have such a system!

Does anyone use pango? Is it easy to add and remove plate numbers if you change cars often? And do they overcharge you "by mistake"??

Thanks

when he punches your plate number into his device it shows that you paid Pango. It works!

They have a pretty good app as well. Calling is only for kosher phones.

I got a ticket once while on it, but they ended up canceling the ticket.

Nothing beats PANGO  ;D
the app costs a few NIS so we stick to the old fashion dialing method (*4500)
also easy to track the parking history online.
it CAN be done!

The problem with the yellow thing sis that if your on vacation you have to wake up at 8 to feed the meters. You can't preset them for the next day!
