No more free electric for me after 2016

16.99 monthly flat fee? Think that's a tad dear.... Probably fine if you're going to use it everyday ( will at least more than 2 full charges a week). They do need a payg option for those who might need one on the off chance.

Most of my driving is within range so would only need a public charge on the odd occasion. Would suck to be paying for something I might use.

So the POLAR network in the UK had been £20 a year - and PAYG.

Now it's something like £10 a month - and a big chunk of charging thrown in.

I only ever charge my Leaf at home so that was that. I still have Ecotricity membership. Whilst that's £10 a year I'll keep it. If they start the £10 a month I'll give up on that too. My EV usage is all local so there's just no point. If I had a Tesla and was trying to make my EV my only car it would be a very frustrating situation. As it is? They just lost a customer...

Got an email from polar recently £8.95 a month and 10p per kW. Thought that was OK, unfortunately there's only 1 of their chargers in NI and it's a 30 mile round trip away.
