PodPoint charging

[johnmcilroy]

Hi all,

Just wondering, has anyone in the UK signed up for the 'free' OLEV-granted wall charger through PodPoint? I notice on their website that they offer a 7kW upgrade for £90, which could make it quite a cheap way of getting a fast charger on the wall of your house (instead of the BMW wall box, which is massive and just not practical). Clicking on the 'order' button on their website takes you through to somewhere called YESSS, which offers the chance to order via a local installer drop-down menu and quotes install dates of April/May…

Has anyone in the UK gone this route instead of Chargemaster/British Gas?

Regards to all,

John

Im looking forward to getting one installed. My local electrician will be approved soon to install these PodPoints, they look nice and a 5 metre cable too. Will update when i have it.

Hi uk techie. .

The standard 3 kw unit and install is free, the upgrade to 7kw is £90 and they bill you 2-3 weeks after installation.

I recommend it 100%..
