So last night I had a first for me where the public charger i was using (Westgate shopping centre in Oxford) would not release my cable.
I tried all sorts of combinations of plugging the other end back into in my car and stopping the charge etc to no avail.
Rang the provider (Swarco) who have no remote access to the chargers at the centre but told me to leave the cable and they would send an engineer out in the morning and they would deliver the cable to me - to be fair this was done despite living 25ish miles away from the centre and the engineer was very apologetic. Thumbs up to Westgate too who took all my details and rang me to let me know the engineer had manged to remove the cable and was on his way to me.
However, what was the likely cause of this? Is there something I could have tried which could have released it for me? I gave it a good yank but wasn't sure whether pulling hader would have released it?
Anyone else had similar things happen?
