A charging app that actually gets EV charging needs

This app has such a smooth sign up process and then so easy to pay and actually use chargers. The features like availability and expected usage levels are awesome. Super useful and modern! Definitely recommend having it ready when charging away from home.

App doesn’t work and TapKey not Received

Review Update:
Following my original 1-star review I’ve upgraded my review to 3-star following contact from the support team. It seems the company are having some issues fulfilling orders to customers in London. They have provided me with a refund which I consider a resolution, so I feel 3 stars is a fair appraisal of my experience. I think the app has potential, but it’s clear they have some issues for certain users. For now I’ve found another service, but I’ll probably give Tap Electric another go in a while.

Original Review
Nine days ago I subscribed. I have not received my TapKey and the app does not work (repeated error message ‘that was unexpected, try again later’). lead time for TapKey is supposed to be ‘1-5 business days’. Very disappointing as I was trying to get this sorted ahead of a road trip to the Netherlands. My advice would be to avoid this app. I’m seeking a refund from the vendor for my subscription.

Developer Response ,

Hi PeteThePianoGuy, we appreciate your patience and updating your rating. We hope next time you're road tripping in the Netherlands, you'll Tap with us.

Amazing

Awesome app and interface. Definitely the best user experience from the driver’s perspective when trying to find the best price nearby. I hope more and more places start incorporating Tap into their charges because it really is much better than all the other services out there.

Developer Response ,

Hey Bruuuuuceeee,
We appreciate your support! All our features are built with drivers like you in mind and we're working hard on building our charger networks in the UK so you can Tap at more places.
Cheers
