Ratings and reviews

The app didn't initial a charge. It didn't connect to the pogo charger. It charged me 45 pound 3 times. The 4th time I decided to do everything from the machine. Stopped credit card, charged me 30 quid, failed to charge. 5th time lucky, but it charged me another 30 quid. Once it started charging it was fast. The charging cable on the charger is so badly designed, the grip on most of the chargers had been torn off and the charging cables were lying on the floor.

This is a pretty awful app. The process is unclear and you are charged £30 per session to validate the account. Yesterday I tried to use it to charge the car twice, £60 was reserved in my bank account and i was not able to initiate the charging either time. I gave up and went home. The Octopus Electroverse app works much better. The process is clear and account validation does not involve reserving money in your account.

It just works, where I live we have pod point where at our local tesco only 1-2 out of 4 ever work, not a single Blink one works properly within a 20mile radius and the JET garage ones also don't work at all, they actually just took my money and didn't charge. I have used the PoGo ones in Darlington twice now and they just work, you just plug it in, tap the screen 2-3 times and it starts charging and at only 69p/KWH it's not too expensive. The app seems fine, no different that others.
