Also a new owner, and also living in Scotland.

I've been following the main forum, but decided to post here as my question relates to charging in Scotland. Hope another member from north of the border can give me some information.

Took delivery of my ID.3 on 7th March and signed up for Chargeplace Scotland as they have the majority of public chargers up here. I've since used a public charger on four occasions (last time on 23rd March). My sessions appear on my app but so far I've not received an invoice from them, and no money has been taken from my account. I expected to pay at the end of the month, but have heard nothing from them.

Can anyone tell me how they take the money from us for charging sessions. Perhaps I shouldn't be too concerned at not being charged, but, as a new customer, I'd just like to get an idea of how the system works.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I have been driving EVs since early 2015 so have been lucky enough to have 1000s of miles free charging.
All good things come to an end

That's a decent price. No doubt my local ones will start charging cash at some point and at those prices that's cheaper than charging from home. My local Morrisons has a charge point..50.5p/kWh. Won't be using that one one any time soon.

If you join Bonnet you can get Genie Point (Morrisons) for 35p on their PAYG plan.
There also other networks where it is all 35p.
