Ratings and reviews

A good app, let down by limited features and poor support (which you have to use for missing features). Once you've added a car, you can't modify it, or even remove it without contacting support. I've had an issue with a connected car for 2 weeks. Each email to support takes days for them to respond to.

Very poor unfortunately. Can't use smart charging as my app only lists US providers. Contacted support who said my account is correctly set to the UK, provided screenshots that confirm I cannot set up Octopus or any other UK based providers and sent several emails without any response whatsoever. As a consequence my charger lacks any smart features at all. At some stage I'll just pay to replace my perfectly good charger just to get away from ev.energy.

Unreliable, because this has to use the car info to determine when it's plugged in the car can be charging for well over an hour before it catches it, then it will not resume charge sometimes leaving the car uncharged. I've had 2 years to figure out what was causing this to happen and changed the car and had a new charger since. Not worth £5 a month, use to be £10 but greed has taken over. You give £5 for every 30 points when it was £10, you already make a pretty penny with this.
