In Carrick-on-Suir. Nicht von hier. Geparkt. Habe die App heruntergeladen (laut Schild). Es gibt keine Zone 1508. Sie existiert nicht. Ich musste raten und Zone 1208 verwenden und hoffen, dass es in Ordnung ist. Warum sind alle Regierungs- und Rats-Apps völliger Mist?

Nothing if you type 1508 into the search bar?
Just look up the street name.
I used something similar in Cork recently. It’s probably the case that the two systems are using different codes
Aah, I see where you’ve gone wrong there. The trouble is that you’ve somehow ended up in Carrick-on-Suir.
(Seriously, though, I believe that should actually be zone 1210, so I think you’ve picked the wrong one; 1208 is Eamon de Valera Place, which is a tiny alleyway off the main street.)
That app is used in Cork City too and is the most confusing mess I’ve ever come across. There are hundreds of streets to scroll and the map is always zoomed out and covered in hundreds of google map pins. Even as a local resident it’s extremely annoying to use.
It was originally designed for an interactive early 2000s phone line in a time before apps, where you keyed in the code on the sign. The app was an afterthought and it’s ludicrously clunky.
It also has a minimum top up amount and you have to register cards. You can’t just pay by Apple Pay or Google Pay etc, so it’s basically useless to casual visitors and tourists.
You’ve done your part, you have screenshots to show that they haven’t done right by you.
Fuck them and enjoy your day.
I hope you get Zoe Bread on the case
I’d drive into the wall trying to read all of the info
Ireland needs to just outsource for all of their websites and apps because they’re absolute dog water. Get a US company or something to make them for us instead and put a bit more money into it.
The bus apps are terribly organised, RSA’s website bans you for 24 hours if you browse the site/reload the site too many times, the UI on most Irish sites I’ve been on are so outdated and blocky in design and common sense site navigation you get in other places is non-existent a lot of the time.
I’ve now moved to zone 1502 and paid again.
The genius mobile app developers at the Council actually have zone 1502 as an option in the app. They should all get a pay rise.
Irish government app slogan: yesterday’s technology tomorrow.
