Initial experience wasn?t good, after initially locating a high speed charger in Padstow, we plugged into charger 1 for over an hour, the charger and app were both saying charging but this wasn?t the case, after an hour I moved to charger 2 and it worked perfectly.. once charging it was a good service however one of the units it?s definitely faultyIssue details: System saying charger but this wasn?t correct, wasted over an hour

Unfortunately neither units working. InstaVolt notifiedIssue details: Charger panel in car indicated insufficient voltage and only allowed about 3 minutes at 7kwh

Chargers only deliver 65kw against the advertised 120kw. Very small spaces and access currently hindered due to forecourt works in front of chargers. Bleak location

This is an 80 kWh charger but I only managed about 28kWh so this was frustrating

Easy to use - changed twice here only got 25-40 kw

The station is very run down, the chargers are hard to get to and often blocked by people using the laundromat. The charger itself requires either the InstaVolt app or a credit card.I managed, but the person at the charger next to me gave up frustratedly.The charge speed was underwhelming. Instead of the advertised 120kw, my Tesla maxed out at 62kw charge speed. It can easily charge faster than the charger could provide.There are no public toilets in the station and it is in disarray.Overall a bad experience.When trying to download a receipt for the charge from the InstaVolt website, the transaction could not be found.

App does not seem to be able to allow user account at this charging station, despite detecting charging status correctly, i.e. "charging" or "available". Card payment works, but today (05/08/23), Padstow 2 charger could detect cards via chip reader, but could not fully authorise the transactions. Multiple cards and multiple users had same issue (transactions declined). Instavolt help line could not help. ??

Charger access limited.Very expensive rate of £0.75/kwh and only achieving 75kW charge rate vs 120kW advertised.

Expensive and got nowhere near the advertised 120kW charge rate (only 62kW) despite being the only car at the station and battery pre-conditioned.

One of the few fast chargers in and around Cornwall. Disappointed again at the speed, max was 85kW on a 120kw charger, and when paying for speed you do expect it to charge quicker!!

Chargers in good working order and easy to find. However an absolute pig to manoeuvre into. But you can get two cars in to use the two charge stations.

Didn't accept all of my payment cards! What a waste of time

First rate charging. Charging at 80kW. Payment very easy, just swiped Apple Watch over contactless reader, plugged in and hey presto. Lady in the garage very friendly and accommodating.
