Interesting charge at Source London on Warren St

[TSL_LHR]

So I parked today at the single charging spot on the corner of Warren St and Cleveland St in Fitzrovia. I don't have the Source London membership so I tried to do a pay-as-you-go payment (like I did about a week ago). This is what they tried to charge my card. Luckily revolut confirms these so I had a chance to decline. But something unholy is going there. They don't have an email where to send the screenshots, but sent them a message via the website form, no reaction so far.

More like 'Go-before-you-pay' !

Wow that's almost as much as a charge from Ionity!

I tell you, it would suck to have to chase them for a refund. Still no answer from them by the way.

yes but could you actually prove you did not consume 25000KWh that day?

I would hope any reasonable financial app would block something like this....

Really don't know what to make of this. "This message was erroneously displayed for a short while".

Most likely there's a red-faced developer around thought it was a good idea to validate payment information with a £10k preauthorisation instead of a more sensible £0.01, £1 or £50.

It’s a Government scheme to reduce the current deficit...

Hope so. Also, hope the govt actually forces all these companies to use a single payment system of some sort. Phone will soon run out of space with all these various apps. Not a single good experience so far in terms of a quick way of paying for charging without spending 10 min filling out forms.
