Is it possible for an AC type 2 charger to damage the on board AC to DC converter? Is there a fuse that could have blown? I have a Charger Station error which won’t clear despite trying several AC chargers. DCFC is fine.

Yes, but it's not always the charge station's fault. Usually when this happens the on-board charger has failed and needs to be replaced, it's not just a fuse.

Charge it up to 80% on a DCFC and bring it to a dealer for diagnosis and repair.

Thanks, I’m pretty sure it’s the car having tried a number of chargers and there’s no current being drawn. Dealer will look it on the 4th Jan.

Update - Unfortunately the dealer involved said they did not have the expertise so I was referred to larger dealer 30 miles away. Booked in for the 6th for those guys to investigate.
