As of December 1st 2008 Park by Phone Irl (sic) Ltd cease operation of the phone parking system in Cork City, Ireland. Cork City Council have engaged another company trading as ParkMagic to operate the service.
Existing Park by Phone customers have been issued new windscreen stickers by ParkMagic, a photocopied generic welcome letter, which appears to have been completely written and posted by ParkMagic - as the headed paper, and frank does not match the current City Council version.
The system can be accessed by calling 0818 220101 or 0818 220330. The price has increased to € 2.00, which it appears is on par with the cost of a disc. Unfortunately the Cork City Council only provided an undated price list. But if the cost of both the paper disc and ParkMagic is now the same then the latter is unattractive, as a phonecall to a revenue sharing (i.e. think premium rate) must be made.
