RingGo: Mobile Car Parking App

Would not let me sign up, should not need a stupid account to pay for a parking spot.

Doesn’t work with non-UK phone numbers. Just a tiny, minor, little, irreverent detail since why would a tourist every visit Bristol or Glasgow?! Small hamlets, hardly worth a visit. Chat support doesn’t work. Can’t call since, you know, you don’t have a UK phone number. I spent 20min trying to get an agent for chat support with their “AI” system asking me the same questions over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again and refusing to connect me to an agent. If the developer responds with “use our chat service or call us”, then you clearly haven’t read this review and are copy/pasting. Fix your chat system and make it possible for me, as one of the rare tourist going to the UK, to use the app.

Omg what a complete waste of time these people are. First they don't tell you that your pass word has to contain symbols. Once you finally figure that out they either never send the confirming code or it just plain doesn't work for foreign numbers. Then when you phone for help or to sign up by telephone you they tell you the phone system isn't working. What's wrong with London council that they put up with these people?

Does not working with non UK numbers which is absolutely ridiculous. Oh and the best part is that most parking places in Glasgow use this app. Tried using the live chat to create and account and after 20 minutes I gave up. This app stinks and shame on Glasgow for using it. Horrible.

You need to fix this. We were in a car park in a tourist area that only accepted this app and coins, not credit card or notes. Its unacceptable that foreigners can’t use your app in a country that wants tourists. I see the advice to another reviewer was to register using live chat. I did this and the response was to include the country code which I did but it still didn’t work.

Can’t text a non-UK number a verification code, which makes it useless for tourists.

Completely useless for anyone visiting the UK as it only accepts UK mobile numbers to register. I mean, how difficult is it to accept international numbers in the 21st century?

RingGo is used in many tourist areas in UK. We were stuck at a kiosk that would not accept credit cards or bills. Wasted data downloading an app, registering. Only to not receive the confirmation texts. Which they limit to 2 per day. Tried email and nothing came there either. App will not work with international cell numbers. If I get a parking ticket I won’t be impressed.

Really frustrating experience with this app. Can’t handle nonUK mobile numbers. Useless.

Waste of time as you can’t enter a non UK number for an account and the voice recognition system is the worst even speaking perfect English. Save your effort or bring coins to park.
