Ionity charging network

Expensive mistake, €125 clamping fee plus €30 "F**k you" fee from GoCar for being an idiot

The chargers are beside the apartments and car dealerships. The shopping center is down the road a bit

Probably the same management company though

Unfortunately tricks like that go both ways, I know a guy who got his car clamped in the university car park so he just went to the breakers and bought another car for cheaper than the release fee

He even "traded" the clamped car for it and told the breakers where it was and that it was clamped. They apparently just shrugged and said they'd get it at some point, the car was sitting there for months before it disappeared

Plugshare is a community site, so if it's been removed then it's because a user removed it and nothing to do with Ionity

Looks like planning was granted so no idea why the location was deleted

EDIT: Just checked the Google reviews for the shop, not a lot of happy customers. Maybe someone in Ionity read them and pulled the plug

Ionity have "administrator" access on plugshare to their sites and some level of integration with plugshare showing live status. They can lock a site from being edited on plugshare, Tesla can too,

It might be that they just wanted it gone until the site is launched and previous history and comments gone.

This list has it as now building

https://www.irishevassociation.ie/infrastructure-updates yet if I look at ionity coming soon sites I don't see Waterford as " now building'. Did they stop because a pallet was in the way?

Is that that not the (in)famous site in Waterford? (the one with the picnic tables that the owner would move to block off the previous charger there)

If it is, it might explain if Ionity have changed their minds.

Massed concrete slabs with mounts for chargers are now on-site. If the electricity supply was upgraded when the garage was recently, it could be a very quick turnaround.

I think the petrol station would be off to the right of the photo, the chargers are in a corner of the site as I recall

I don't remember any changes to the forecourt from the planning application

The Google reviews of the shop are hilarious, reads like they don't want any customers

It's going to be funny seeing the reviews getting added from European EV drivers coming from Rosslare and looking for a charge, wondering why the owner is threatening to clamp them after 20 mins

I'm doing Meath to Derry & back tomorrow. Was planning to go via Belfast to avail of Ionity charging as it's quick & reliable.

Is it worth taking out Passport Power/Motion for the cheaper rate & cheap introductory monthly subscription? Then cancel the subscription next day, Sunday & use Revolut too?

I think anything over 25 kWh and you would be better off on the "Passport Power" tariff.

There is also Ionity in Toome which might suit your trip better but mobile signal there can be poor.

Heard the mobile signal is poor in Toome alright. Don't have any RFID charger cards

Centra shop has public WiFi that you can use to start charging with app.
