## Review summary

Multiple reviews consistently report poor reliability and high costs. Key issues include activation failures and app instability, overpriced rates with preauthorization charges, onboarding hurdles with account setup and verification delays, and concerns about fraudulent or unauthorized charges. A rare positive note mentions a seamless experience at one location, but the prevalent pattern is frustration with billing, charging reliability, and onboarding transparency.

### Cons

- Charging activation failures and unreliable charging experiences; users report the charger won't start or activation fails, and the app may freeze during use.
- Very high pricing and frequent unexpected charges; reviewers cite overpriced rates, double market pricing, and preauthorization fees (e.g., $25) before charging.
- Onboarding friction: difficulties creating accounts, delays or failures with verification codes, and upfront charges to link a card.
- Fraud/billing concerns: multiple reviews claim unauthorized or fraudulent charges on their cards.
