What home electricity supplier & tariff do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?
British Gas – we use a non-EV tariff as our main electricity costs are during the daytime and would not be improved with an EV-specific tariff.

 

What public charging networks do you use? Would you recommend them to others and why?
Pod Point (Tesco), BP Pulse, IONITY & Mer all work well, especially with the Mini charging App. Gridserve on motorways that have replaced Ecotricity units are excellent.
