I will be making journeys long enough to require charging away from home regularly enough that having access to the widest range of networks is important.
To that end, what on earth is going on with CYC, who seem to actually be BP Chargemaster, who run Polar but that seems to be out of fashion in favour of the chargemaster app, which doesn’t show the CYC chargers, which in turn don’t seem to work.
Visited a council operated charger that’s listed on CYC today, couldn’t activate via the app which eventually decided the charger was out of service. This charger does seem to work reliably with rfid card, and that fits comments I’ve seen about CYC. Tried calling them, gave up despite how important my call was to the speech synthesis bot passing for a phone system.
So is the CYC card worth getting at £20?
Does anyone know whether the Polar brand is going away?
It does seem the largest charging network is all run by one company with at least three heads that don’t talk to each other.
