    No because it's none of their business! I'm paying for electric hook-up within my site fees and it's up to me which appliances I use within the 16 amps allowed.

    No because if I do 30 miles commute from Gatwick, I will need to top up the charge at the car dealer servicing bay before I start work. So I will be using their power for my work.

    Commuting, shopping etc. is personal use.

    Cut some slots in the top and disguise it as a toaster perhaps?

    Are you that naïve?  

    What will you do if they say no, or charge you extra to charge the EV

    EHU is provided on the assumption that it is to supply "domestic" requirements. Charging EV's doesn't fall within that assumption. Any significant utilisation for this purpose will soon get the attention of site operators as it is likely to make significant impact on their operating costs. For Malcolm, it might be fun while it lasts but a bill will arrive eventually.

    You are exactly right, we do have the right to post as long as the posts comply with the clubs T&C’s.  However 3 threads of one individuals dogma is no joke🚗😑👀🤑

    Perhaps the pointless thing is that people tend to over engage on certain subjects and their posters. Whilst no rules are being broken all I can say is the solution is in your own hands?

    Well, I for one, made a New Year's resolution NOT to follow, add, comment, rise to the bait, etc. any of the threads relating to EV's / Club charging points / salaries / work / credit cards / fast food deliveries etc.

    Mind you, if you took all those topics away, there wouldn't be much left! surprised

    Pointless, as that didn't last long. Obviously no staying power! undecided

    I did not see any queue there last time I went to have the existing Smart car serviced in December. Everytime I have visited, the charging point was unused.

    I'll move the caravan to another site that says yes. It's called consumer choice!
