Yeah, the infrastructure in the UK is hilariously bad as well. They just don't get UX. I want it to be like a petrol station - card reader, pre-authorise my card, plug in, walk off. If the charger is literally located at a petrol station then I should be able to pay cash inside and have them authorise the amount I paid. Instead it's like some endless web of bullshit apps and signing up and doing online payments or whatever. There is no reason at all to require a smartphone for this shit. I don't get the trend towards just making things less convenient for the end user. It feels like a gamble that people will just put up with it anyway, ignoring the fact that lots of us will just nope out. I would never buy a non-Tesla EV until this is fixed.
