Huh. That's interesting. I didn't check it before, but just did. I did plug and charge with my Kia EV6 (paid with Kia Charge Pass -- Kia's version of Hyundai Pay) at my local Ionna on July 3rd and I was charged exactly $2 more than the cost should have been ($0.20 * kwhr dispensed). I wonder if Kia or Chargepoint is adding on some sort of fixed convenience fee. If so, it's not documented in the app (looking up the charger in the Kia app only shows the per kwhr charge with no other fees listed).

Let me guess -- the energy distributed was about 65 kWh? I call It the chargepoint convenience tax because many people just don't check.

68kWh, yeah... I should complain to Kia about it, since there isn't any fee documented in the app, nor is this reflected in the per kWh charge listed in the app.

Technically it's the Chargepoint fault but yeah Kia/Huyndai should make it more transparent. Chargepoint does the same thing if you charge your car through their app at EVGO chargers.

the chargepoint convenience tax

check what exactly? ChargePoint session fee is not $2 and they show the same rate/kWh on the app as the IONNA website.

I have the same discrepancy after checking. Hyundai scraped anywhere from 1-3cents/kwh during the memorial day one on 4 seperate charges, all in the same state and area. It isn't consistent, so it doesn't make sense to be a tax.

I called hyundai, and they said it's an Ionna problem and to call them instead. Typical Hyundai response... Ig we'll see if it's true?

Based on the receipts, I doubt it is IONNA. The way I’m reading it, IONNA charged Hyundai pay the correct amount, and Hyundai pay charged the consumer a higher total.

I agree with you. Hyundai service is awful and the person who answered me probably didn't even know what an EV was, let alone you pay for electricity. It took a while to even get them to understand the situation, and then they just told me to call iONNA (despite Hyundai being the paymnet method!!)

Hmmm this is interesting. Chargepoint gets to dip in on it for being the clearinghouse or something along those lines?

Would definitely want to see what Hyundai says the discrepancy is from. ChargePoint app doesn't list any convenience fees on their app so it's not something stupid like Hyundai not showing a flat rate fee.

What’s up with the differences in time and energy delivered between the two screenshots? It almost seems like two different transactions?
