A series of fines for a driver from Plovdiv after the wrong number of the car was written at the gas station when he bought the vignette for his car.

In 2020, Yordan Pashov bought a vignette.

"The drama started 2 months ago, when in the company's office we received a receipt from API, which claims that one car did not have a paid vignette for the year 2020," he explained.

"We checked with accounting.

We took out the payment documents.

We found out that we bought a vignette for the car from a gas station near Plovdiv.

The money was paid from the company's bank card, but an error occurred when entering the registration number - 5 digits were entered.

The number is 7555, and in the vignette it is 75555. Thus, the car has 5 numbers and 4 letters

and", added Yordan Pashov.

Until now, three receipts for 300 BGN have been received, but they are afraid of more receipts, since the car is often used.

"So far we have appealed two slips.

All who arrive, we will appeal them.

The car has a paid vignette," says the owner categorically.

The Road Infrastructure Agency came out with a position for bTV.

It states that in case of incorrectly declared data, it is considered that no vignette fee has been paid for the vehicle.

"The user had the opportunity, and it is his duty, to check whether the vehicle he is driving has an electronic vignette," API added.
