Several charging points for electric vehicles at a motorway service station still aren’t hooked up to the power network after connection delays.

We're shafted aren't we? 😟

Maybe, although I'd never charge at a Motorway Services anyway.

I'm driving from the Midlands to North Wales tomorrow, bit of a charging desert up there, wish me luck 😅

Where abouts in North Wales? There are a few good spots - probably one of the better ones is the open-to-all Tesla Superchargers in Flint, and there's a bank of Instavolts at a farm shop... can't remember the name of the place off hand.

I'm going to Llandudno. It looks a bit better than it used to a couple of years back to be fair.

I'm staying at an AirBnb, so I'm hoping I might be able to be cheeky and use the granny charger (will check with the owner first) 🤣

Yeah, it's a bit dead round there. Looks like there are a few rapids in Rhyl - and a big mostly 7kW hub which might be useful if you spend the day there.
