Just noticed this after an update to the app. They've got their own charge pass.

On the Swiss website the blurb is a joke. Click on costs, it says "We are super transparent about costs. Completely open. We're good!" then crickets. There is no pricing on the site.

I was able to find it on the French site, and seemed ok-ish. I then went in to the app and looked at my common charge points. LOL. 20-50% more expensive. What a joke.

Why do they bother? Trying to lure in lazy/ignorant people I guess?

As someone who is awaiting delivery of an R5 E-Tech, I’m wondering which EV charge cards to get. Wondering if the Mobilize Charge Pass is worth getting. So far I’ve not found anything about which UK networks (other than Ionity) are accepted by the Mobilize card. I’ve already got an Octopus Electroverse card. Can anybody tell which networks are covered, please?

In the early days (2015 - 2023 ish) I used to carry all sorts of different charge cards and Apps, as you needed them. Nowadays, I just have the Octopus 'Electric Universe' as it gives a discount on some providers. However, you, mostly, don't really need another card or App, as it's almost universal to use a Debit or Credit card.

I'm not sure how correct I am with this bit, but, there has been a quite a lot of grimbling about banks holding back payments to secure the payment. I find this doesn't happen with my credit card.
