BTW should I be able to save a charging station like one of EA’s as a favorite? I’m only able to save L2 chargers.

No, since you can't set anything what would be the point?

True on that. I guess it would just be literally a memorized station you can recall quickly. For what it’s worth.

Not sure about Apple but you can save favorite locations on Google maps if you want a quick/easy way to get directions to it.

Has anyone tried if plug and charge works now?
Yes. Yesterday in NH. Pulled up, plugged in, walked away. Came back (shortly) with 30 miles added. I had issues at the location before (due to operator error 😏) so I wanted to try again based on @RickMachE advice. The charger screen even acknowledged I was getting free charging through Ford. My free 250 kWh accurately reflected the session. So as of yesterday, at least here, it is working.

Note: these are pretty old chargers too. Easily over five years old.

Try this:

Use the EA app the same way - find and activate on the EA app, then plug in. If EA charging is still free then you scored. You’ll get free kw’s and you won’t have used up your Ford free kw’s which you can then save and use later after EA gets their network fixed and starts charging for it again.
If it was still free from EA, you don't even use the app. You just plug in and it starts. But you want to turn P&C off first so it doesn't grab the session first.

But moot now as it appears the complimentary sessions from EA are over. None of the 7 stations we used last week in CO/UT/NV were free.
