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.
if car can handle CCS, i think.

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.
+1 CCS Combo 1 Adapter
$300
This accessory requires a service retrofit. Schedule Service in the Tesla app Frown
Is there a EvGo link that shows non CCS locations? My app screen is blank

Nice to have free codes here, but unless it's SD effect It's a super buggy app. Similar to ChargePoint, Blink. TSLA just works flawless compared to these 3rd party!

On the map, just below the north arrow there's an option, click that and it will show the charger types, I deselect CCS and CHAdeMO and screen goes almost blank as there are very limited NACS and J1772 options. Looks like EVgo is not Tesla friendly.

The app isn't great but when I plug in to charge it works and it's free so hard to complain.

I signed up, update my vehicle Chevy bolt and I got this email this morning with a nice discounts for Chevy owners.

Exclusive Savings for Chevrolet Drivers:
No Fees. Just Benefits.

As a Chevrolet EV driver, you're eligible for an exclusive EVgo plan that makes every charge smarter. It is completely free to join.



Here's why it makes sense:

Save 10% off standard EVgo rates every time you plug in
No $2.99 session fees. No subscription fees. Ever.
Access to 1,100+ fast charging locations nationwide
Even if you only charge once in a while, this plan helps you save money. There is no reason to miss out.

Open the EVgo App and go to Menu > Promo Codes.
Tap the "+" icon and enter your unique code: gmdisc5XT3938P
Your GM plan will be applied to your next fast charge.

This is a nice perk with all the others on this page

Didn't work for us today. Called CSR and she will escalate the matter by sending us an email where we respond with the issues we were having. Pretty useless CSR.

I was able to get $20 in credits on Sunday, plus the Hertz discount. I had to input each code multiple times but eventually some of them worked. The WINTER codes didn't work, but I'll try again today.

Are you freaking joking?!! Please tell us you are joking!

First rule of Slickdeals, never call! These codes have been great for tons of us, don't ruin it!

esp w/ no J1772 options in PHX. Looks like EVgo is not Tesla and CCS and CHAdeMO friendly.

Is this promo over? When I enter a code, I get a spinning circle, and after a long time, I receive a message stating that there was an error adding this code.

Are all stations equipped to charge Tesla M3? I've the Tesla given adapter if that is needed? TIA.
Yes but why? These stations cost more and more cumbersome to use in phone app, if you have Tesla, stick with it and unless you are really in a pinch.

Pinch or proximity to a store/food etc. Good to have all apps, like Shell etc. I agree that TSLA is super ez
