I have successfully linked my car to Charge Anytime and it is showing the charge level OK.  

But the app is saying that I haven’t made any savings yet.

Is that because I am using a standard 3 pin plug 13amp charger?  Does this only work with a proper EV fast charger?

Any advice appreciated.

Hi @walkera99 ,

 

Charge Anytime works with a compatible charger (which yours won’t be) or a compatible EV. While it’s not recommended to use a standard socket, some seem to have that working. 


You'll also need the smart meter etc working correctly and to be using the charge anytime app. 
If all else fails, get in touch with the team
