Maybe, but if so it should be part of a broader choice of "avoid expensive chargers" - much like the "avoid toll roads" toggle that pretty much all satnavs have. Some people want/need to get there as quickly as possible; some people want to get there as cheaply as possible.
more over, there is actually a delay on the charger availability shown on map. sometimes 5 min or so.
I had instance where I arrived, it showed that I have to wait - but it was 1 spot available. when I left - it was still showing wait time, but there were 3 stalls already available.

It was once upon a time as a ‘coming soon pin’ but it was removed at some point. It will get updated eventually, the online map isn’t the best source.
Looks like Tesla is going to be pushing harder that ever on SC installs. 5 jobs currently advertised for UK & Ireland. That’s more than I’ve ever seen.

Need to take my first trip down South soon since Tebay supercharging was improved. Over the past couple of years I‘ve taken to timing my trip to try to avoid the inevitable queues there. Do I need to still do this or have the 12 V3 superchargers managed to alleviate the queuing problem?
Much better since the upgrade - used Tebay 3 times in the last fortnight, it is vastly better. Even on the Bank Holiday weekend I waited less than 5 minutes...
Or they just lost a load of staff to a rival ...Looks like Tesla is going to be pushing harder that ever on SC installs. 5 jobs currently advertised for UK & Ireland. That’s more than I’ve ever seen.

Heathrow Superchargers (Bath Rd) now open to all vehicles. Turned up today with the car saying 5 available but in reality none due to the fact that they were being used from the wrong side.
Nice coffee in the hotel cafe though.

Tesla have now done a deal with Ford AND GM to allow access to ALL US superchargers not just the ones opened up the public. I wonder if we will see anything similar in Europe.......
Swung by Exeter services yesterday and many parking bays were fenced off and numerous civil teams present near the existing Superchargers and Gridserve chargers. With Tesla’s known contractor G4E vans and crew also there. Only ducting materials on site and looks like initial site ups.
Another expansion underway do we know?

Isn't that more to do with Ford and GM using the tesla 'standard' as tesla don't use CCS in the US?

Not really Ford could fit NACS ports to their cars any time ( Tesla have made it freely available) but wihthout doing a deal with Tesla it would be worse than useless. The News is he deals done to allow Ford and GM access to ALL US superchargers
My point was if they have done it in the US they could do it even more easily in the UK since everyone already has a port that would plug into a supercharger. So while I don't expect the whole UK network to be opened up to everyone for a while. (we are not the Netherlands they have 25% of all the chargers in the EU). Could we see individual manufacturers get access?...
