POSTAL services will send SMS text messages to people when their items arrive so that they can be picked up at any time from automatic post office boxes, Communications Minister Efthymios Flourentzos yesterday said.
He was talking at the Nicosia offices in Prodromos, which inaugurated Parcel24 on a pilot basis. Customers will be sent a code through SMS to access the post boxes.
Flourentzos said that postal services were trying to innovate even though there was a financial crisis. Other cities should get the service later in the year, he said.
