I did the "Join to charge your EV" process.
You enter in all the usual info, although more than usual... (stress address, etc).
At the end it gives you a member number; so you're not just signing up to charge, but joining as an NRMA member.
Fair enough, I thought they may have had a "free tier" membership for EV charging. Boosts their member numbers for their annual report, and I get charging access, I'm OK with that...
I then go into the "my account" and apparently my account "renews" in 12 months. So I've effectively signed up to a paid membership with a 12 month free introductory rate?
Which, if I had've known, I would have waited until I was actually travelling somewhere that had an NRMA charger before signing up ... which I won't be for a while (unless they build something between Geelong and Perth in the next month).
