ePark EMEL

I have tried through the app and online to register but it does not let me register. First it asks for a TIN (tax identification number) for Portugal which tourists don’t have. I tried putting only zeros. No luck. Then it says that user already exists ?? Then when I login it says that credentials are not found. ??? I don’t get the app. Make it easy to pay for tourists. It will benefit the city more which generates another good steady income. Also dont launch the app when there are clearly some issues with it. Make it easy for tourists since 3/5 of Portugals income comes from tourists. There is a lot of potential here so try putting some effort into it. Hire people that can make this happen.

I recently traveled to Lisbon and downloaded this app to park. First I could not register. The app kept giving an error. So I had to register on the website. Then on my first day in Lisbon I used it to park successfully. However, every time I tried to use it after this it would just show a spinner icon when I added the time and clicked ok. This is the worst app I have ever used.

Traveling to Lisbon with a rental car and we wanted to take a trip out of the city by train for the day. We heard we could use this app to recharge our parking time while away so we didn’t get towed (also didn’t want to lose our primo parking space). Well so much for that idea, the app errors out when trying to create an account, then says you already have an account when you try to register again, and finally when you logon with the account you created it says “checking for updates”, then dumps you out at the login screen again. Don’t waste your time! Guess I have to go find a long term lot and pay an arm and a leg or find a free spot somewhere far away and probably a lot less safe.
