Hi All

I know there have been charging issues with the latest software update, but I would like to ask if others are affected in the same way as me.

I have a completely dumb untethered charger and 1 phase type 2 cable.

First charge yesterday with the .11 software. I stopped the charge manually from the app, but left the cable connected over night.

This morning opened the app to unlock charge cable, but pressed charge by mistake. No problem. Press stop then unlock... Charge stopped but would not unlock.

Tried several times, cursing and swearing...

OK, do it from the screen in the car...

Where it normally says release cable, it now says start charge...

Fuming by now... In desperation remove cable from wall, so car cannot see mains. And try again. By this stage I am contemplating pulling the boot liner out to get to the emergency release... On the third try, a click and the cable is released.

Now if I had a tethered cable or was on a public charger which locks the cable into the charger unit, I would have been stuffed, and the release would have to be pulled.
