So I was going through my swag bag from my Hyundai dealer and noticed a postcard type mailer. It was sealed and had a big Hyundai logo on one side and Chargepoint on the other. I opened it up and inside was a Chargepoint card. My salesman didn't tell me about it, maybe he didn't know. The sadly funny part, the day before I was updating my chargepoint app with a new credit card and misunderstood the menu. I deactivated my current card and you are not allowed to reactivate so I did what any normal human would do and ordered another card not realizing I had a free one from Hyundai already sitting in a bag. Anyway, did anyone get a chargepoint or other type of card with your purchase? There weren't any credits or anything associated with it so it only has a $5 value in the US.
 
When I ordered my chargepoint card (because my new phone didn't have NFC any more [emoji2962]) I actually got it for free.

I never saw that card - I have the ChargePoint app on my phone, and just use my phone to initiate charging. I think the only actual card that I have in my wallet is EVgo - Electrify America is switching to using the phone to activate as well.

Got my Chargepoint card with the car.. I'm still using it.. There was no money in the associated account..
Got Chargepoint, Greenlots and EVgo cards.. Most RFID readers on EVgo are broken and I'm using the app..20200714_104850.webp
 
I'm having an interesting problem with my Greenlots account.. I have a greenlots card associated with my account. I

Unfortunately very true. I think my card only worked once. Always been using the app since.

To EVgo's defense, their chargers have a very high success rate when charging, just not with credit card or RFID card.. Usually works flawless with the app but just don't try the credit card or RFID reader..

Greenlots used to be very unreliable but lately, I've had a very high success rate with their chargers.. Their old ones were crap but the new ones seem pretty reliable..
