@OctopusElectro Please can you chase up the information from Apple green? I need the details of the charge ASAP. This information has never taken this long to come through.

@sam_smith0717 Hiya Samantha! 👋😁 Occasionally, the operator may delay sending session data, which could result in a delayed receipt and a delay in your being charged. Once they send that over, it should be reflected in your account :)

@OctopusElectro used our Electroverse card yesterday, the charge went fine. However I have no confirmation I did this charge or had a receipt through. When can I expect this? Used this service for over 18 months and this is the first time encountering this problem.

@B_McBeardface Great choice

New #EV ordered. Kia Niro EV 3 in blue 😬

@CoppiceJT Congratulations, that’s a great achievement. The Zoe is a great car, we borrowed one from Onto whilst we awaited our current e-Niro.

My electric car is 10 years old! 🎂 It was one of the first Renault Zoe to be sold in the UK. Key stats: 74500 miles 🚗 18625 kWh electricity ⚡ 6.5tCO2 🌬️ ( 67% lower than my old petrol car @ 19.8tCO2!) And all done without a home chargepoint. 🔌 It's possible!

@bppulseuk at your MK coachway site and what a state, out of the 8 chargers me and another driver only managed to get 2 working, and they’re not even functioning properly either.

@raimonick Hummmmmmmmmmmm is what we said to our son, he caught on quickly enough, now he says all the noisy cars are broken. 😆 his cosy coupe has a charging point too

Issues as an EV advocate with a toddler… what noise does the toy car make? 🚗 💨

@humphbecket That’s Leicester forest east, I’ve tweeted them many times about this site as it used to be a regular for us. I think they’ve basically given up on them. Shame, in the early days seeing this site coming in to view was a relief 😅

It’s not always the charging networks fault that chargers are slow or too few in number

@RolecEV #FullyChargedLive #winwithrolec

Chameleon is having a lovely piece of cake @ivie_uk @FullyChargedShw had a great day in Harrogate yesterday

@kate_tyrrell @humphbecket Me and my husband said the same driving through there @kate_tyrrell

@humphbecket I saw that and wondered if maybe this is a sign of things to come… faster lane for EVs? Maybe get the die hard petrol heads to think about converting? 😂😂😂

Question: whilst driving along the M1 the speed limit was reduced to 60 mph to help with air pollution. Should this be done more often?

@WomenDriveEV These were shell recharge units, looks like they may have been decommissioned. There is usually a tap point on the top right of the unit for RFID cards. Weve managed to make a few old ones work with the RFID card we have for them.

Q: What’s this? Spotted at Thoresby Park Nottinghamshire, it has a QR code which tried to connect to a Shell website but got an error code 👎 #evlife #ElectricCars #NOTTINGHAMSHIRE

@OspreyCharging @FullyChargedShw This is an awesome site. We visited recently and enjoyed the coffee shop in the garden centre. A perfect stop

@KateFantom Honestly after driving EV’s for nine years now I wouldn’t be without ours. Charging has taken us to some interesting places we wouldn’t have visited unless we had the EV. We don’t feel we’ve lost out but gained a different lifestyle which we love, 17000 miles in the last year

My point here is, if you’re new to EVs, it’s a learning curve, a bit like having a new phone, but you’ll get it. My other more crutial point is, when looking for information, please ask owners and those that live with an EV daily, you’ll get honesty and balance #ifyouknowyouknow

Here’s a picture of Florence and I reading a bedtime story at 7pm. I’ve driving an EV almost 400 miles today, worked for 4 hours, charged with @InstaVoltUK for 34 mins and experienced absolutely issues and did zero planning.

@ElecHighway We tried using these over the weekend our e-Niro was pulling 4kw, we moved it on to the AC chargers, upon returning a Corsa-e had plugged in and was pulling over 100kw! Really not reliable when Cornwall is due it’s busy season. I understand the plan, it’s just frustrating

🚨 Cornwall Electric Hub 🚨 We are still in a testing phase with the Cornwall Electric Hub. In its initial phase, the Electric Hub at Cornwall Services will use a combination of limited grid connection, on-site solar and battery. 👇

@GRIDSERVE_HQ Mini-e

Our Elves are back at it! Can you guess the electric car? This one is a real British icon. ✨Electrified ✨

@LNRailway There is a train from London currently sat just outside the station waiting for a platform. This train should have arrived into northampton @19:15 get someone to clear a platform so the 18 carriages can be released. There is no working toilets onboard

‼️ We're currently experiencing high volumes of tweets and our response time will be a lot longer than usual. ℹ️ Please use journey planners and speak with station staff regarding your journey. We aim to get back to you as soon as possible.

@SmartRGW @KateFantom We play the electric car game with our kids, like the old number plate game. Kids have noticed more on the roads so the game is getting easier for them now.

@KateFantom As a family we always call out BEVs when we see them. In January we'll start a new challenge, calling out streaks of BEVs there are so many about 🚗🚘🚗⚡🔌

I know this is a bit sad, and I was working south so this may have some bearing on it, but, I counted 18 vehicle transporters today. All but 2 (JLR) were carrying Teslas. This is an everyday occurrence as too. A quick transition is happening and Tesla is making serious wedge 👌🏻
