Charge Anytime was working great with my BMW iX3 until a week ago, then the CA app stopped recognising when my car was connected. I removed the car from the app and when trying to re-add it, got the following, but there’s no way to accept the Ts & Cs. Help please?

Hi @ShoumilS ,

 

You need to agree to the terms from within your BMW account - please go there and accept them by logging into it directly, then try setting up Charge Anytime again.

 

Still struggling after that? ovocharge@ovo.com has your back.

Hi @ShoumilS

It looks like @Blastoise186 has raised a great point here. As the error message suggests, please navigate to your BMW account to agree to the T&Cs. Once this has been done, you can then re-add your car to Charge Anytime. 

If this still doesn’t work then send an email to ovocharge@ovo.com and the team will look into this further with you.

Thanks both, eventually worked. There was a bit of a time lag between trying to add the car in the CA app and the BMW account recognising that I needed to accept Ts & Cs.

Hi ​@mandy spicer ,

You’ll probably want to talk to the BMW/Mini Support Team about that one - I’m not sure anyone here can figure this out, sorry!

Hi Abby 

 

thank you I did discovered for myself you need to log out of the app and when you log back in again it will ask you to confirm T’s and C’s

Settings for bmw ix1.  I have a BMW ix1 connected to a waEV charger and using charge anytime. 
This works most of the time but it sometimes just doesn’t do anything. It’s becoming that I can’t rely on it to charge. Any help much appreciated.
