I had HOLIDAYCHARGE10DR pop up when I opened the mobile app. It is a $10 credit toward your next charge. Both codes were able to be loaded to my account...

I also added WINTERDRIVE5DU that I apparently wasn't aware of previously (I already know of the other two WINTERDRIVE10DR and WINTERDRIVE5DR codes).

Update--oddly enough I was able to add the HOLIDAYCHARGE5DU code twice; no I'm not hallucinating or mistaken--I had $20 remaining in my EVgo account, then after adding HOLIDAYCHARGE5DU, HOLIDAYCHARGE10DR, WINTERDRIVE5DU, then HOLIDAYCHARGE5DU a second time, my balance is now sitting at $45. And in case anyone was thinking about trying it--my attempt to add HOLIDAYCHARGE5DU a third time was unsuccessful. ;-)

Download the app and see if it has NACS port, it varies on station. If you have the NACS->CCS adapter it would work too.

Why does the OP's info say "HOLIDAYCHARGE5DU" ? Should be changed to "HOLIDAYCHARGE5DR"

Three codes worked for me:

HERTZ - One year no fee and discounted rate
HOLIDAYCHARGE5DR
HOLIDAYCHARGE10DR
Because HOLIDAYCHARGE5DU was working. Maybe it quit working or hit a redemption limit?

No. You were probably given https://shop.tesla.com/product/sa...ng-adapter which is only for level 1 and 2 AC charging. Some (few?) EVgo sites might have that. Most EVgo sites I've seen/visited don't have that.

Most EVgo sites will have CCS1 and you'd need https://shop.tesla.com/product/cc...-1-adapter. This might also require a retrofit on your car's side (a board inside the car) depending on when it was built.

Yes, the adapter in the first link is what I've. Just looked and they only have one NACS adapter out of several, most of them are in maintenance, I wonder why and they're 7.2kw. Won't be able to use the credits.

Added both 5 and 10 promos. What does it mean, "expires one month after redemption"? One month after adding code in the app?

I added my Equinox EV, and it offered up this code: gmdiscQG242YNP

I believe it's available to accounts with a GM vehicle in the list. I believe it's 10% lower rates, and no session fees. I don't see why you can't just add a GM vehicle, even if you don't have one, to access the code.

Of note, the HERTZ code expires after 1 year, while this GM code expires after 3 years.

I have a 2023 Chevy Bolt (the last model, with a range of ~250 miles). I have never taken my car on an out-of-town trip and have relied on Level 2 charging at home. However, now I am considering making a 450-mile trip. Can I charge at EVgo?
