A couple of weeks ago, Vladimir mentioned in his blog that he managed to pay road tax online. I have to agree, this is a technological breakthrough in functionality offered by Cyprus government’s websites.
While paying the tax is now possible, the website is still very confusing. It provided practically no information or instructions on what to do. Now the site looks a bit different though. Notice that ‘Here’ icon that blinks as fast as your computer can render it?
So many people wanted to do it online, and so many failed. Some of them even posted comments on Vladimir’s blog, providing their information (ID numbers and car registration numbers) in hopes that it would somehow work.
Technology gone wrong…
P.S.: As sad as it is, it’s also very funny. Hilarious even.

I tried to pay my road tax on line but I registered on the site and never received my login e-mail in order to proceed!

I heard recently that online system was disabled (taken offline?) until January 21, 2007.
