Charge Point charges kwh and time? Any other brands to be careful of?
I have been using Charge Point as I wait to have enough to get a L2 Installed, might be months or years from now depending on how life treats me)
But charge point looked to be 20 cents less then the other chargers in my area (walmart) and didnt think too hard about it other then "wow, over $10 per for 1/4 charge, the others must be more then gas if they charge 20 cent more per kwh. Weird I was told charging was less then gas even at fast chargers." But I finally took the time to read the dang screen after charging and say my time rate was charging me more then the kwh rate!
With time included, for me it is about .75 per kwh charged!
Whent to walmart after realizing it is likely actually the cheaper one unless it sneaks in time charge too. It didnt. Was so much better seeing $8 for that same 1/4 charge.
What gives!? I feel ripped off!
Any other brands other then charge point to be careful around?
I saw the parking after charge fee. But no mention of while charging time fee anywhere I looked other then the final screen that is there for like a few seconds. Feels scummy and a good way to trick new ev owners who dont know.
