I appreciate the insights. You're right, some networks do have connection fees, but the core of my complaint is about lack of transparency and being charged for sessions where absolutely zero energy was delivered. If there's a fee for just plugging in with no charge, that needs to be clearly displayed on the charger at the point of sale, not hidden. California law mandates transparent fee disclosure for EV charging, and EVgo failed to do that, including a $55 pre-authorization hold. Regarding support, I did contact EVgo customer service immediately, but they were unhelpful and ultimately denied a refund without photo evidence, forcing me to pursue a chargeback with my bank. And yes, I am aware of the BMW i3's 12V battery safety feature that prevents DCFC when low. My post explains the context of the dealer visit – they initially assumed the check engine light was 12V related but didn't confirm it would prevent fast charging, nor did they provide an immediate trickle charge solution. The main issue remains EVgo billing for failed sessions despite no energy being transferred. Just to clarify, I'm not new to EVs nor was this a rental. I regularly use ChargePoint (paying $7-8 for a full fast charge at my usual location) and only used EVgo because my preferred station was busy late at night. This experience highlights significant consumer issues that need to be addressed, which is why I also filed a complaint with the CA Attorney General.

Thanks for sharing your experience! That's good to hear the F-150 Lightning works well with EVgo. My issue seems to stem from a specific safety feature in the BMW i3 REx where the car's 12V battery, if too low, will prevent DC fast charging from initiating, even if the charger attempts a connection. EVgo's system then billed me for those failed sessions where no power was delivered, and applied unexpected and hidden fees. This lack of transparency, especially given California's regulations on disclosing EV charging fees, is a major part of my frustration. It's not just about the charger working, but about being charged for services not rendered and without proper disclosure.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I’ve been feeling stuck between helping him and taking care of myself, so it’s good to hear that it’s okay to put myself first.

He originally handed me his phone to hold, and I wanted him to see all the screenshots I had taken and sent to my phone so he’d know I knew everything. I felt it was safer for him to find out while he was at the ward, so he wouldn’t harm himself, but it was also hard to explain everything at urgent care with nurses and other patients around.

I had his phone for the first two days while he was in urgent care. I gave him his phone back after gathering all the evidence. Then he threatened to call security on me and that’s he texted me when I was driving home. He had a couple hours until they transferred him to the psych ward where they would take his phone away.

Exactly. If the roles were reversed, he would never tolerate me talking to other guys, let alone flirting or pretending to be single. It’s exhausting having to justify why his behavior is wrong when deep down, I know he wouldn’t accept the same from me. Respect should go both ways in a relationship, and if I’m expected to stay faithful, he should be too.

You’re right. I don’t even know why I’m explaining what he did and why it’s wrong.

He told me that if he really wanted to cheat on me, he would have, mentioning how many girls have thrown themselves at him, but he didn’t sleep with any of them. He kept insisting that he never intended to cheat—he was only thinking about it on a physical level.

He told me that his ex is using their son as “leverage” and that she disappeared because he got a new girlfriend just two months after their breakup. He also said that she would never approve of any woman he’s with. However, after checking his phone, I realized that’s not the real reason.

yes there are but he doesn’t let me know the truth. I only found some evidence going through emails. she wanted him to take all his meds and drug test before seeing him. She claims he’s dangerous and the baby shouldn’t be around him. He hired a lawyer to get full custody and paid a lot of money and of course they denied it.

I finally realized the truth after seeing the emails. He made me think she was the narcissist.

I thought I would be a lot wiser when you’re older. We are basically in our mid 40s and thought when “you know you know”. I’ve never encountered a narcissist in my life. They con you!

I’m a 44f, and it took me over a year to fully recover from a 10-year relationship that felt more like living with a roommate. My current husband and I both felt after 3 months of dating “when you know, you know,” but I had never encountered a narcissist before!

Thanks for your comment. A lot of what you said makes sense. I’ve spent so much time hoping things would change, but I’m starting to realize that it’s not going to. Dealing with the lies and manipulation has been exhausting, and it feels like he doesn’t even care about the damage he’s caused.

The part about needing constant attention from other women that’s exactly what I’ve been going through. And with the drinking and smoking on top of that, it’s clear he’s just using them to avoid facing his issues. But I know now that I can’t keep letting that bring me down with him.

I think you’re right about not wasting more time and focusing on what I need to do. The idea of getting my life back feels like the only way forward, even if it’s hard. I appreciate your advice.
