Sorry since when can you pay for all fuel transactions at the pump with a debit card?
And if I want Shell loyalty points why can’t I fill up at BP for them. And why don’t all stations sell super unleaded?
Standard for fuel purchases? Utopia in your head I’m afraid.
Plus I’ve always had to pay for fuel… why would I want that enforced?

Has she seen/been in one yet? Makes a lot of different seeing it in the metal. Ive not checked the 2nd hand market but I wonder if they are the 21/early 22 models with the lower capacity battery and less powerful motors?These are crazy good value used at the moment and surprisingly practical

I would say the vast majority of pumps have card payment as standard, if you want the points you go to the station that will supply them, simple. But you also pay in the kiosk don't you and I've always had to pay for fuel too but I don't what to have 10 different apps for every garage that I go too

Actually if you want the points for fuel you can also use the app…
I'm unsure where you fill up with fuel, but i have never seen the same nozzle dispense diesel and petrol, it's normally a nozzle for each.
Then the answer is yes.For card payments, cash payment or payment via the fuel companies mobile app? Yes, yes they do
(Yes ok, fuel cards are different)
Use an app and sign up to a subscription and you even get discounted rates, i'm sure if that was available for petrol/diesel then people would download the app in a jiffy.
They do, it's called a fuel card but most people just fail to meet the minimum order quantity

govt reports/aa/rac all say there is a whole demographic who don't want to **** around with a phone to pay for electricity, so govt has told charging companies they need to provide cards,
that said on street chargers (like some parking meters) will have to be exceptions
agree ioniq5 's look at lot nicer in the flesh, several local silver ones, in comparison the ev6 backside - only a mother could love that
Those I take it, will be the buggers who fill up at a petrol station then stroll into the shop and spend 10 minutes buying the weeks shopping.
While everyone behind them in the pump queue has to wait while they count their cash?

indeed. Ignorance is bliss. It’s okay the margin they make there will make the subscriptions even better for higher usage.
To be fair, as a fully fledged sloped foreheaded neanderthal, even I have an app for every fuel station including the ones I only visit a few times a year. Points mean prizes and all that.
The real winner for me would be the provider(s) who serve me out electrons on account which I settle at the end of the month. That would make my expenses / anal cost analysis much easier.

For Tesla you just plug it in (if you are driving a Tesla), there are a growing list of other providers that also support this. So no cards or apps required.
I have only ever charged at Tesla, as like the vast majority of people, I don't often need to do 300 miles without access to a destination charging option.

Some kind of rally driver?

The Tesla charging system is really very good. If every other manufacturer was as good as this then many of the issues discussed would be completely irrelevant.

plug and charge is coming. 
Lol just realised how that read, what I meant was my left foot kinda automatically moved to the right to press the brake rather than the non existing clutch. Not an EV thing more like 25 plus years of driving mostly a manual.Some kind of rally driver?
