Charging Networks in the UK

kevz65 · 10-13-2021, 06:31 AM

Hi All

I am new to EV's and was wondering what is the best charging membership to get for the iX3?

Main motorways I use are the M23/M25/M1, and occasionally the M40.

How do they work - is there one card for all? or is it just tap and pay contactless?

Here is the link for BMW charging. You can get a charging card from them and it will give you 12 months free subscription to BP Pulse and Ionity. You just pay for the charging. With this card you can use other operators. You should be able to get the information from the link. To be honest I ordered the card and where I am located there are no Ionity chargers and BP don't have the fast chargers.

So i use local chargers and when on the motorway, use Grid serve and their rates are good.
