Ford Early Access + Electrify America: Complimentary BlueOval Electrify America Membership Invitation Email

[itsthenewdc]

Received an email from the Early Access Program just now. Placed the order, and now just waiting on the confirmation email that it's ready to go. Excited to see this coming to life after it sort of vanished.

Hello,

As a Ford Early Access Program member who has used their complimentary Electrify America 250 kWhs and frequently uses public charging, you’ve been selected to receive a complimentary BlueOval™ Electrify America Membership. All we ask in return is that you help us test and validate our enrollment and pricing process by signing up and charging your vehicle two times.

This is your invitation to receive a complimentary one-year subscription to the BlueOval™ Electrify America Membership. This will give you approximately, a 25% reduction for DC fast charging at Electrify America charging stations for a year. If you are interested in this offer, enrollments will be open for a limited time through Tuesday, July 5th 2022.

What You Need to Do:
Go to the Connected Services website www.ford.com/connectedservices
Log in using your ID and password (if necessary)
Select “Upgrade” the BlueOval™ Electrify America Membership
Finish enrolling by checking the terms of service and conditions and finally clicking the “Confirm Activation” button.
As a current member of the BlueOval™ Charge Network, Ford shares your VIN and a unique ID number with Electrify America (EA) so that your vehicle and subscription can be identified when charging.
You will receive two emails. The first email confirms your order, the second email will let you know everything is ready to go.
When ready, charge your vehicle at an Electrify America charger two times on different days.
We will need you to successfully charge at least 4-5 minutes. If you need a full charge, by all means take advantage of the discounted charging for a longer session!

Enjoy the benefit of discounted charging on us, for the remainder of the 52 weeks! Thank you for your help with this important upgrade to the BlueOval™ Charge Network.

I just received that as well.

Well, I'm a little PO'd about that. I'm in EA, and was one of the first who signed up/discovered the ability to sign up, and was even billed at the non-discounted rate for a couple sessions (that I never got refunded for but the charge (ha!) was small, so I didn't pursue it).

I rely exclusively on public charging as well. Bah.

 

[Logal727]

Dang, y’all get all the cool stuff. I can’t even get into EA.

 

[smartino]

Got it today too.

 

[CHeil402]

Also just got it. Going on a road trip in 2 weeks, so it was timely. Now I don't have to choose between EA Pass+ and Plug-and-Charge. We'll see if it works.

I haven't gotten the email yet but I hope I do. Going on a road trip thursday was gonna buy a month of pass+. Save me $4!

 

[Eric_C_Boston]

Thanks for the info. I checked and got the email, so I signed up! No trips currently planned, but I am sure I will need it in a week or two.

I have used DC charging 30+ times, but mostly on my 2021, which isn't in EA. My 2022 is in EA but has barely used anything past the free hours. No email yet.

I always had issues with Plug n Charge and EA so I disconnected the service completely... I don't even think I used my free 250kWh

 

[DevSecOps]

This looks like it might only being going out to Job1 EAP. Can anyone confirm?

 

[Jimrpa]

I still have 260-270 KWH left, so I doubt I’m targeted. It would be a mild PITA to use public charging anyway (I would though, if it would help Ford out).

Here is a message I got from them today as part of the EA program. I successfully added the discount online too.

 

[Stang68]

I can't even get Plug and Charge to work on my Mach E! I have to activate the EA station every time through the FordPass app.

So far I didn't get the email, and from the sounds of it, I won't?

• I still have 16kWh of the complimentary left.
• I don't primarily use Fast Charging as I have a station at home.
• I've flipped on and off P&C early in my Job 1 car's life as some EA stations refused to work with it. Currently on at the moment.

I've been on a number of long road trips as recently as March, but that lingering 16kWh really sealed the deal. Perhaps this weekend when I finish the complimentary it will kick in?
