You can’t change amp rate/limit for DC charging and would be a bad trick if you were trickle charging and there was a queue. (Similar for those that charge to 90%-100% on ultra-fast chargers)
Not tried it but this is highly unlikely because this is DC charging. I'm pretty sure that the amps control only affects home AC charging ... and that's possible from the car because the charger for AC is in the car.
They do have destination chargers also but not sure if they're available 24 hours. May be a better option if available?

Has also been called Tolvaddon and Redruth in this thread. The TR15 postcode didn’t seem to work in Google maps got me.

From the A30 go to traffic lights and turn left. Go into college grounds and charging area is on the left.
Nimbus Kitchen (cafe) is in the FibreHub Building (opposite) for food, drink and facilities. The manager said that signposting would be going up as the works are completed with ability to pre order from your car.
Another good supercharger site.

Nice and perky this early evening, some guys doing landscape work with their ICE truck across three bays, but only me there. Obviously they need to put a surface down as the picture above shows.
50°13'38.8"N 5°16'46.0"W is the entrance to the bays, or ///sleeps.rainwater.olive

How have you racked up a cost of £3.08 for only 3kWh added (based on your screenshot)? Most expensive charging in town....
Now that the Camborne has appeared on the nav, beware that it takes you to the wrong entrance - to a locked gate marked "contractors only"!
You need to go to the next traffic light along the main road and wiggle round the back of the building that houses Fibrehub. The correct turning off the main road is right next to Western Power Distribution's depot and looks like it just goes to the college, but you keep turning left until you get there. The superchargers are clearly visible from the main road, but not entirely obvious how you get to them.
The above is if you are coming from the south on the A30; if you are coming from the north, then you will already be on the "wrong turning" road (which is the sliproad off the dual carriageway), and I expect the nav will tell you to turn left immediately, when in fact you need to continue a little further on to the traffic lights, turn left, left at the (very close) next lights and then round the back of the building as above.
Cafe in the Fibrehub building currently trying to close at 3pm (but this evening kept open until about 4 by stream of Tesla drivers coming in...). Apparently they will be staffed for 7AM-7PM daily from the end of the month.
BTW, seems like the Darts Farm upgrade was timely - when I was there over the bank holiday weekend there wasn't a queue but all chargers taken a couple of times while I was there (not helped by the lack of signage causing people to reverse into the stalls that are meant to be nose-in and so using the connector on the wrong side, leaving one at the end of the row unusable).

Checked this evening and these are still in the same state, two months on.
Pity both this and Fleet isn't complete what with Fully Charged Live happening just down the road from both this weekend...
There’s a suggestion here that the Blandford Hill charging hub in Dorset will have superchargers Our Proposals | Blandford Hill Green Eco Hub
It’s great news! Slightly out of the way on the Salisbury road rather than main London trunk route but an exciting development!

New Reading Service Centre info!
Photos from today. Looks nearly ready to open!
Even looks like there could be provision for 8 superchargers (see 2nd pic along front of site with strategically placed paving slabs
next to Tesla sign stating “Vehicle Charging” 
)
Couldn’t tell if end building might be a “Tesla Lounge” or service reception maybe? but it does seem gated off from where the superchargers might be so i dunno about the lounge?!?
