Bulgaria's Sunny Beach Introduces SMS Parking Fees

Saturday, May 28, 2011

Bulgaria's popular Black Sea resort of Sunny Beach announced the introduction of parking SMS fees just as the high summer season is about to kick off.

As of May 30, all who want to pay their parking fees in a hassle-free way have to send a text message to number 135544 for subscribers of the three mobile operators Mtel, Globul and Vivacom.

After sending the SMS, the person gets a reply that the payment was successful. Five minutes before the pre-paid hour elapses, the subscriber receives a notification.

An hour's stay in the parking zones in the coastal resort will cost BGN 1.50. To this the mobile operators will add the price of the sent text message.

Local authorities have said that the introduction of SMS parking is the first step towards the establishment of a blue zone on the territory of the whole resort.
