About Prices:
All Prices shown are the Maximum rate per kilowatt hour in pence per kilowatt hour (p/kWh) paid via contactless card (PAYG Pay As You Go). You may save money by using any apps available or by using a roaming partner such as Zap-Pay.
Note: You may also be charged additional fees if you use 3rd Party Apps. You should always use a Credit Card and not a debit card when undertaking Electric Vehicle Charging Payment Transactions.This is because you are not liable for unauthorised payments taken from your account if you use a Credit Card and are protected by the Consumer Credit Act 2006 . Where Holding / pre-authorisation fees have been taken from your account and not returned under the terms of your Charging network Provider you need only contact your Credit Card Company and they can return the money to you.
