BlueOval Charge Network Trial Extended

[generaltso]

I just got this email. I was wondering what would happen with that since my "trial" expired a few months ago.

Just got it too.

I just got it too. Maybe if I'm lucky they'll include my discount plan in the extended period! That one is due to expire in about a month.

Only metooing because I already had three years and I got the same email. Still three years! (2023)

is your new date 12 months after your original expiration then?

i should say, my expiration has been --/--/-- for months so i can't actually even remember what it's supposed to be.... kind of confusing

Same here. I still have time left in my trial.

So what do we think this means? What happens if the trial expires? What will we lose?

What does the first paragraph mean? What do they mean by complimentary access? By my reading it implies that normally we would be charged for the privilege of using Ford's changing network. What am I missing here?

Thanks!

Does this mean we pay $0.36/Kwh instead of $0.48/Kwh?

Probably, but it doesn't look like they've updated the date yet.

Even though it states a one year extension is there any commonality to the expiration dates or is it in fact a one year extension? Just wondering if a common date may be tied to the roll out of Tesla access?

Mine still shows the expiration 3 years from when I took delivery.

You're not missing anything. That's exactly what it means. There hasn't been a whole of of advantage to the BlueOval Charge Network to make it worth paying for, but that will likely change if it's a requirement to use the Supercharger network (which we don't know yet, but wouldn't surprise me).

No.

Interesting. Mine only came with 2 years, but has now been extended to 3. If I remember correctly, the 500 free kWh were good for 3 years though. I remember wondering how I was going to use them in year 3 if I couldn't use BlueOval anymore.
