Useless. Had pre-booked EV parking at the NEC, but you can't use a bank card on the small chargers (why do companies do this? Gridserve you can just use a contactless credit/debit card), so had to install this. It found the unit ok, but no way to actually start a charging session - think the app is meant to create a button to activate, but it wasn't there, and you couldn't do anything else. Tried more than one charger in case, and same both times. 1st and last time I'll be trying to use a BP

The app used to work okay (but never perfectly) on my pixel 6. But since getting a pixel 8 it's super buggy. The map won't load (though you can see the charger pins) so you're left guessing as to which one you need. And when you try and confirm a charge it just hangs up. I ended up going round and round in circles trying to get it to connect but no luck. I gave up in the end! It's particularly annoying as the chargers at work are BP ones, but now I can't use them.

It works fairly well most of the time. Compared to the likes of PodPoint, which is generally cheaper with Tesco's for destination charging, starts the charge automatically and gives a 15-minute grace period to confirm the charge, there's some way yet to go. Pros +Network reliability has been improving +Most common for destination charging Cons -Customer service responsiveness could be better -App isn't the most reliable and can be a let down -Generallly not the cheapest rates
