Lol, as soon as I say this they come back online according to the app. Maybe I should complain more often

Brunswick, Victoria EV hub is a good example of this. Both chargers broken for longer then 6 months with no sign of replacement or repair. Plugshare advises they will be replaced but unknown when. 6 months broken and if this was a petrol pump at a petrol station there would be rioting.
That kind of time has to be down to the owner - in this case apparently Moreland City Council, and you can imagine a council might not have budgeted much for ongoing maintenance & repair.
Then why is the council cos playing as an energy provider? EV chargers aren't some nice green washing project to put in the council newsletter that you can abandon after the press release, they are critical infrastructure.
A lot of eulogies start that way

Proposed Port Fairy location is at 5 Bank St, Port Fairy VIC 3284
Statement from Evie, containing
"To meet the project obligations and requirements Evie must deploy and commission all infrastructure
prior to the 31st of July 2023. To be successful in meeting these project obligations this means we must
have the site into construction by early June at the latest. Generally construction is taking our build
partners 5-10 days with minimal impact caused to the local area. Once the site is built we can schedule
a truck appointment with the power authorities to energise the site, this is taking anywhere from 4-8
weeks from construction completion. It is critical that this site is delivered within these timelines to
meet our project obligations due to the large capital investment to deploy Electric Vehicle Charging
infrastructure ahead of the electric vehicle demand curve."
They're not doing the best job of keeping this map up to date.
Traralgon has been done for ages, Rosebud and Lakes Entrance are more recent but still shown as coming on the map.
New under construction site spotted in Flinders, Vic (Mornington Peninsula)

Tesla Owners Australia | Just had a quick trip to Flinders, Victoria today and noticed an “almost ready” charge site
Just had a quick trip to Flinders, Victoria today and noticed an “almost ready” charge site. It’s an Evie setup for 2 cars, 75kw total. It’s on Wood st, opposite the Flinders Hotel …..Pics below:

They just announced some new sites, interestingly Robina is the only one getting 4x CCS (no Chademo) 50kw
Of the 4 x 350kW chargers there:
- 1 is out of service.
- 2 appear online but will auto-abort the instant it starts charging (on CCS anyway, one of those two worked fine for a CHAdeMO Nissan).
- 1 worked normally, but last night some yogi was at 98% while 2 cars were waiting. I did a 5 minute blast to reach Marulan (well, Goulburn, just in case Marulan was occupied) then the guy who arrived before me hoped to stick around an hour til he had enough to reach Penrith on his way to the Blue Mountains. Though he said he'd move on if someone was waiting. I suggested he try BP at Ingleburn/Bardia, before the M7 turnoff, as it's got 4 CCS stalls.

They won't. They're related companies via the Trevor St Baker Energy Investment Fund.
Evie Networks is owned by them.
Tritium used to be owned by them, though it got floated via a SPAC early last year. Though they still have a substantial shareholding in the now-listed company.

Due to being way OT, I've replied to the Sutton Forest stuff in Evie EV charging networks
Mod: Please consider delete this post & shifting the 2 above to that thread.
Still worth sending them a message! They are literally requesting feedback on why customers would or would not recommend them.
How quickly they can fix it is the bigger thing. One would assume Evie has the highest level of Tritium support?
It's also interesting that Evie haven't Faulted the stalls on the app - providing a misleading view unless you check Plugshare.
Chargefox has been playing similar games. Eg. At the Eveleigh site, only one of the 50kW machines is marked as Faulted despite both being out for a week, and a comment field stating they are aware of the issue.
