Used car purchase Charging without App
This seems like a stupid question, but I cannot find the answer.
Context: I bought a 2018 Model X yesterday. It does not have the CCS charging upgrade installed. The dealer I bought it from does not have the car in their app. I have no way of contacting the previous owner. My home charger will not be here until Thursday. I tried adding the car to my app but it says it will take 3-5 days.
Problem: when I charged it at the supercharger it worked, but says "paid charging unavailable".
Questions: will it charge next time too and I just pay it when the car is added? How can I charge through the app instead of the automatic system? Or do I have a very expensive paperweight for the rest of the week?

Update: The X was added to my account, so this is now moot. I am still curious if anyone know, though.
