As a new EV driver, I found ChargePlace Scotland’s stations pretty convenient in principle. It’s straightforward when everything works—you can just use a bank card, no need for a special app or RFID card. Plus, apps like Zap-Map help you find which stations are actually up and running.However, there’s a serious downside I’ve run into. If the machine glitches and the session fails, it still takes the initial £35 hold from your account. You might have to try again and get charged again, and waiting days for refunds is really frustrating. I had to pay multiple times in one instance before it actually worked, and getting the money back was a hassle.In short, when the stations work, they’re great. But if there’s a problem, be prepared for some payment headaches. Hopefully, they can fix that refund process soon.
