Chargepoint is putting outrageous temporary hold charges on all charging stations. Probably some MBA fucking another business up.
Hi Person,
We’re writing to let you know about an important update to how payments are processed at ChargePoint stations.
As part of your use of ChargePoint services, a temporary hold charge of $50 for AC stations and $75 for DC stations will be placed on your payment method for each applicable charging session. Once the applicable charging session ends and the hold charge is removed, you will only be billed for the actual charging cost.
For more details, please see our FAQ: https://www.chargepoint.com/drivers/support.
Thank you, Team ChargePoint
Yeah, also in the eu the maximum session duration is 24 h. After 24h if the final payment hasn't been requested the full authorization price will be applied and the session will be terminated, so the funds cannot be held more than 24 h. But maybe that's also a difference between credit and debit cards?
