Just received an email from Instavolt stating that the price of the electricity from their chargers is to go up from 40p/kWh to 45p/kWh from the 1st of December. I expect that they will not be the only ones to raise prices!

Had a fairly unpleasant experience this week with a bank of instavolt chargers and wondering if anyone else has had this issue with an MG5 long range? Plugged car in, started charge. After about 10 minutes needed to stop the charge to move the car, but when I pressed stop it stopped charging...

Anyone having trouble with the Instavolt app today ? I got an email saying the payment card I'm using is about to expire, so I opened the app to update it, logged in and a message keeps popping up saying, "there was an error processing your request, please try again later". The message popped up...

Hi, On my recent trip north I used InstaVolt chargers a total of 4 times. The £5 pre-auth charge appeared immediately on my banking app, with charges for 2 of them coming out within 24 hours or so. However, nothing as yet on the other 2. I‘m not complaining, but it’s a poor business model that...

Tried to charge car at the instavolt station, Broadstairs. One I already knew was out of action, but both are unavailable. I reported this to the uninterested person on the other end of the line (10min wait). They said that there was nothing they could do and would report the fault to the...

Just doing a bit of route planing and don’t know when it happened but instavolt is now £0.40 up from £0.35 pkw Les Edit they increase prices on May 27th I surpose this was inevitable as wholesale prices are rising fast

It looks as though HMRC have upped the VAT level on public charging from 5% to 20%. Vastly increasing the cost of charging for those who don't have access to charging at home. See the following statement from InstaVolt: InstaVolt CEO issues statement in response to HMRC VAT Brief – 25 May...

Hi all, I thought that you might be interested in seeing this quite informative reply from InstaVolt, who I contacted yesterday regarding slow charging at two of their rapid chargers. The rates were 21 & 29kW, which were undertaken yesterday with a battery which was approx 25% full - however at...
