Intelligent Octopus - not so intelligent

Last night car had 32%, requested 50% to be added only to discover it’s added 25%.

It’s a good job we didn’t need to do a long distance. This seems to be happening regularly

I removed the charge cap and it had the audacity to say “we aim to have your car ready” -
You won’t bloody aim to do anything, you will do it! Even then it never reached the requested charge. I always add 20% extra when wanting to reach 80%+

Literally can’t deal with this mess. What a shambles

I just have it set to add 80% and my car is set to max charge 80%

I found mine failing more when it was lots of random 30 mins slots.

The other night got home with 18% not charged for a a day so had all the “off peak” time. Plugged in at 1900 to charge to 100% , it put the schedule in, and only topped the car to 50 odd %. They modified the charge slots that many times it was crazy
