They take your money unscupulously
One charge attempted today. The charger stopped charging several times stating the charge was complete when it wasn’t. Each time I had to restart the whole process- using my bank card as the app froze. Each time this company took £45 from my account. So as of today they owe me £135. Is this even legal? I am seriously concerned about the lack of control over these companies.

Hi Ruth. We are sorry for the experience your encountered at one of our Osprey chargers. At the start of a charging session, a £45 pre-authorisation payment is taken to ensure your payment card being used has enough funds to charge. If the card payment reader is tapped more than once, another £45 pre-authorisation payment will be taken as the charger will assume you are a new customer. We are sorry this resulted in multiple £45 charges being taken. Rest assured if no charge took place, all of the pre-authorisation amounts will return back to your bank account shortly. We can confirm that if you do use the Osprey app to charge, only 1 £25 pre-authorisation payment is taken in a 48 hour period which eliminates multiple pre-authorisation amounts being taken. We can only apologise for the inconvenience caused. If you experience any issues charging after 1 x £45 pre-authorisation amount has already been taken, we would suggest calling the helpline number on the charger to ensure the charger is working as expected. If you require any further assistance regarding this matter, do e-mail us at: support@ospreycharging.co.uk. Many thanks, Osprey Team.

In order for us to investigate this further, do please e-mail us your approx time of your attempted charge to: support@ospreycharging.co.uk where we can view the logs to see why your charging session was not successful at your time of charge.

Hi Terry,
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We're pleased to hear that your charging experience went smoothly, and we really appreciate you highlighting the layout concerns at our Carmarthen hub.
Your input helps us improve, and it was great speaking with you directly to better understand the issue. We’ve passed your comments on to our operations team, who are actively reviewing site layouts as part of our ongoing improvements.
Thanks again for your constructive feedback and kind words about our support team – we’re always here to help.
Kind regards,
The Osprey Charging Team
Very bad setup and poor planning
The charging point had disabled debit card charging but to download the app I had to walk out of the car park to get a signal.
I then walked back in to plug in the car and begin charging but then I had no signal. So I went out of the car park to start the charging session but it then would not work and locked the charger to my car.
I phoned your helpline from outside the car park and after about 5 minutes they managed to reset the charger.
It then unlocked from my car and I was able to restart the whole process going out of the car park to use the app and shouting to my wife who was inside the car park next to my car.
The whole process took about 25 minutes and was incredibly stressful.
I am afraid that if we have a choice of chargers in a town then we will not be using yours in future.
We expected that for the price you were charging we would get a superior service. We did not.

Hi Geoff — we’re really sorry for the stressful experience and the time it took to get going. Needing to leave the car park to get a signal, then having the connector lock while the charger was reset, is absolutely not the experience we want at Osprey. Contactless debit/credit payment should be available on our chargers; it sounds like the terminal at this unit was temporarily disabled and the on-site mobile signal made the app a struggle. We’ve raised this for an urgent check so we can (1) re-enable/repair the contactless terminal, (2) review the modem and signal strength at the site, and (3) look at the cable-lock behaviour so a session can’t get stuck in this way. If you can share the site location and charger ID (or your session time and the last 4 digits of the card used / app email) with our 24/7 support team, we’ll investigate your specific session. Our contact e-mail is: support@ospreycharging.co.uk. Thank you for flagging this — we’ll use your feedback to make the site more reliable. We hope you’ll give us another try.The Osprey Charging Team

Scam company! AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
This company is a scam. I was issued with multiple parking fines for using there charging points. I was even scammed by there QR code into downloading malicious software that went into my bank. I've had to cancel all my cards. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Hi Mr Anderson,
I’m really sorry to read this and want to investigate urgently. Please email us at support@ospreycharging.co.uk with:
the site/location, date and time
your vehicle registration and any PCN references
a brief description of what happened, plus any photos of the QR code/sticker and the charger ID
For clarity, the official QR codes link to our secure parking partnership site and never ask you to download software. If a rogue QR code has been placed at the site, we’ll remove it immediately and work with the car park operator regarding any parking notices.
Once we have your details, we’ll look into this straight away and come back to you with a resolution.
Very frustrating!!
The charging point was on the ground floor of a multi-storey car park. There was no phone signal and I had to rush in and out of the building several times to get the charging session done. Very frustrating!!! If it was not for the support of a very helpful parking attendant I would have had to go somewhere else.

Hi Ben,
Sorry for the frustration you experienced. Mobile phone coverage inside multi-storey car parks can vary and, sadly, it’s not something we can control. That said, our chargers should still accept contactless payment (bank card or wallet) even if there’s no signal to use the Osprey app.
If you’d like to discuss further or share any extra details so we can investigate (location, date/time, charger number), please email support@ospreycharging.co.uk and we’ll look into it right away.
Thank you for the feedback. Osprey Team.
Q & A fulfilled.In receipt of my email
In receipt of my email, your staff were quick to respond with an explanation. After another 2 emails sent by me and again quickly responded to, the situation was made clear for me.
As an assist it would help if when contacting your customers , they were informed as to the location of the EV charging point.

Thanks for reaching out we can confirm that all our chargers accept credit/debit cards. Please email our support team further site details and we can investigate this further.
Charging on a DC public charging network typically incurs higher costs compared to home charging due to various factors including infrastructure costs and VAT. Currently there is 20% VAT charged on all public charging compared to 5% VAT on home charging. The industry average price stands at 82p/kWh, and at Osprey our price is 82p/kWh. For more information on the cost incurred at public charging sites can be found here: https://www.ospreycharging.co.uk/post/why-is-public-ev-charging-getting-so-expensive/ .

PCN rescinded after Osprey investigation.
Osprey were not aware that Premier Parking were fining people (like me) for using the super chargers at Manor Farm, Rainhill, where parking notices were not displayed. On receiving an unjust PCN, Osprey followed up my protests by sending inspectors to the facility to confirm my assertion about the notices. My PCN was duly rescinded and I believe

Inefficient chargers
Whilst the overall experience was good, the charger used was very inefficient, worst than AC charging. First time using Osprey as I had 25kWh free and needed a top up. I added 25.6kWh to the car, the charger charged me for 32.11kWh that's a 20% efficiency rate. I normally use Tesla chargers and get 5-10% efficiencies. The 82p charge rate actually costs 98p taking into account the inefficiency of their DC charger, good thing I had 25kWh free! I'll unlikely use Osprey again, opting more for the open Tesla charger. I used the 60kW charger at Plough, Lincoln.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're glad to hear that your overall experience was positive, but we're very sorry to learn about the inefficiency you encountered while using our charger at Plough, Lincoln. Efficiency and transparency are incredibly important to us, so we take feedback like yours seriously. While some energy loss is expected with DC fast charging due to heat and power conversion, a 20% discrepancy is above what we would expect. We'd like to investigate this further to ensure the charger is operating optimally and help clarify any inconsistencies in energy delivery or billing. If you're open to it, please email us at support@ospreycharging.co.uk with details of your session, such as the date, time, and the vehicle you were using. This will help our technical team run a full diagnostic on the unit. We're committed to improving our network and customer experience, and your feedback plays a valuable role in that. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. Kind regards, Osprey Team.

Welcome to Osprey…a parking ticket for your first charge away from home
The Rainhill charging station has only been operational for 2 months and already 5 negative reviews out of 10 for parking fines!!! 50/50. As on this site.
A parking fine…for not scanning a QR code and entering the registration details when this charging station which masquerades as a ‘car park’ (which interestingly doesn’t display parking fees. LOL) captures vehicle registration via ANPR on leaving and exiting the site. The sole purpose of our visit was guess what? To charge the vehicle, not park it. We neither left the car nor the site.
Osprey Charging Network had agreed in writing to request the fine be cancelled, however reneged when it transpired the leasing company had already settled the fine in accordance with lease policy, thus forfeiting the right of the driver to contest the fine!
I will be alerting Martin Lewis and the local MP to this unfair practice.
Please save your meaningless and nauseating apologies.‘This isn’t us, it’s the landowner and parking operator’ routine. ‘It’s to prevent anti-social behaviour and vandalism’ patter.
Drivers are following the listing on Google maps which clearly says ‘Osprey Charging Network’ in good faith to charge their car not park it. By all means have the parking operator fine those who don’t charge their car and use it to park their car. Not paying charging customers!
I am neither interested in how or who you choose to conduct your business with, I just wanted to charge my car!!!
This was the first time we’d charged our EV away from home and the first time we’d used Osprey Charging Network.
Never knowingly again and I’ve made sure 7 people (some local) are aware of the operation you’re running there, so they too don’t fall foul of it. Bad news travels…
A very shortsighted and unprofessional way to conduct business if you ask me.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand how frustrating it can be to receive a parking charge, especially when your primary reason for visiting the site was simply to charge your vehicle. To clarify, the Rainhill location—like a number of others in our network—is managed by a third-party landowner and their appointed parking management company. While Osprey operates the EV chargers, we are not responsible for setting or enforcing any parking terms or issuing fines. As a gesture of goodwill, we often raise cancellation requests on behalf of our customers where possible. However, once a fine has been paid—particularly when processed by a leasing company in line with their policy—our ability to support an appeal or cancellation becomes very limited. The signage on site is provided and maintained by the parking operator and includes instructions on registering your vehicle. We always recommend checking the signage when arriving at a location to ensure any local parking requirements are met. We do appreciate you reaching out and hope your future EV charging experiences are smoother, whether with us or elsewhere. Kind regards, The Osprey Team
