My charger effectively stopped working properly when an upgrade to the system was made in March and now the charger is searching the network before charging, well in theory . I made a call to the helpline today and was sent information about how to connect the system to my wifi, which I have never needed to do before. The instructions are incomprehensible to me. I just want someone to come out and sort it out. I am thinking of going to BP office to complain.

I have been without a charger now for 3 weeks and still not getting anywhere. You have to wait for over a week for them to reply to emails and when you call the fob you off

The worst ever company in UK to deal with, utterly gutted with their absolute no response customer service. It’s been 6 weeks we are without a working home charger. No one answers the phones or no reply to the emails. I’m making trips to public Charing points as no resolution in sight. What’s the point in having the warranty for 3 years if someone doesn’t even look into your issue for 6 weeks. It’s an absolute joke that this company is still surviving. Where to complain who to complain. Money lost down the drain. Hope this review helps someone, you will de 100 percent disappointed if you chose BP Pulse. One point to note if you chose the new installation option they’ll be super quick to take your call. If you opt for existing customer then please set aside minimum 2 hours of wait without any answer on the other end. And when someone answers the call l, they won’t give their name and the they say it’s the company policy.

Absolutely useless. Unable to enter reg no. Admittedly Internet was poor, but so very far from user friendly. I would give minus stars if I could.

Hello and thank you for your review. I was very sorry to learn that your charge session would not take place due to the poor mobile signal in your area.  As discussed, I will report the issues to our network team relating to the mobile signal when using our charge points as I could not see any faults or any known connection error reports at this time. If you ever require assistance, please do feel free to call our customer care who are available 24/7. We have recently developed a relationship with Zap-Map. Any charge post reported via Zap-Map will be fed back to our Network team. My colleagues will investigate and take action where needed. The team will also make sure to provide an update via Zap-Map. I would strongly recommend using this process if you do not have the time to make contact with our customer care team. We look forward to keeping you energized. ^Eugene

Welcome to the world of a fossil fuel producer with a very thin green washing veneer doing a shizen job at EV charging. Best use charging companies such as Instavolt, Osprey etc that have no fossil fuel baggage.

This is the 5 time my charging unit is not working, I have done multiple times about what you've told me to do by by switching it off and on , but the unit is still not working, unit was bought by at the mobility scheme I am disabled also a suffer with me which is chronic fatigue syndrome, as I charge my car at night time to get the best value of it it took me three hours to figure out what is going on then I had to go out at 11 o'clock p.m. to charge my car up to make sure it's not the car and that is not because it was working, also the lady who spoke to us last time was very rude and told us next call out that we have to be charged I think the service is absolutely disgrace expecting me to go out and charge my car somewhere else and stand there for many hours while it charges, I will give this company no stars and I would refer everybody else not to go with them because I find them absolutely rude ,

As with many on here, the service and product are woeful. They install are charger at over £800 with a 2G sim, which a year later is useless, so you can't use the app and I need to take charge reading to recharge the cost for expenses. The help desk should just be called " The Sorry we can't do anything" they even suggested I get an electrician to came and install a new sim myself. I've called numerous times and I'm still waiting for a response, you are told they will email you then escalation reference, but you never get them. A total rip off and scam.

I would highly recommend that you do not buy a BP Pulse home charger, I have been trying to get mine to work for 6 months and they still can't get it to work as it should, total rubbish. Neither will they come and remove it or replace it, an absolute disgrace.

Very disappointed with bppulse. My charging cable got melted to one of their charging stations. Not only I had to wait a few days for someone to attend and unplug it, only to find out it can no longer be used (faulty socket caused damage to the cable), but also after 1.5 week (!) Of chasing they finally sent me a new cable - which is a cheaper replacement! Even though I made it clear I need original like to like cable as I am leasing the vehicle. I am still waiting for response, but considering I had limited use of car (as I couldn't chare it overnight) I occurred loss of earnings and additional cost for charging on more expensive fast charges. I am nearly £200 out of pocket because of them. Do they try make things right? No. Not even a dime of good will. No initiative to make things right. I can only advise to avoid their charging points if you don't want to be out of pocket.

DO NOT BUY! If you just want a bog standard charger with no features then this is ok. If you require a “smart” charger with connectivity via an app then do not buy. The technology used is 2g (1990’s technology) so there is pretty much no connectivity. This means charging cannot be started and stopped remotely or charge speed changed. The reason I bought this was to trickle charge my car using my solar and battery plant as and when I had excess power I wanted to use rather than export to the grid. These units should be wifi enabled at the very least. This unit is not fit for purpose and I will be removing it very soon. On the subject of price and installation times, it took 8 months to install (with lots of emails and follow up inbetween) and cost was around £1000 by the time it was ready to use. BP Pulse need to update their technology and up their game. I wish I had not purchased one of their chargers.

I had this fitted due to my motability vehicle. It will only charge at 4 kilowatts not 7 as I was told. Contacted BP pulse. What a bloody palava. Absolutely useless. I would get rid of it ASAP but because I'm with motability it is them who put the item in. What a load of rubbish they wanted me to check this that and the other. I told them I am disabled and have problems with dexterity. Didn't make a blind bitter difference. They just kept asking me to check on different items.

We waited over 3 months initially to get our charger installed last year. Now our charger has not been working for past 3 weeks. Apparently they are now having problems with our model. It is guaranteed for 3 years, it needs someone to come out and fix it. We keep ringing for an appointment but they fob us off saying booking dept will ring us back, but they don't. We have two electric cars and this isn't good enough. Very poor customer service. We do not recommend them.
