5.2. If at any point you become a user of a smart electricity tariff that is not a single rate or two-rate tariff as described above, you will still be required to pay as described in section 6 but you will no longer be eligible for some elements of Pod Drive and we reserve the right to withdraw any or all Pod Drive services at that point.

6. Payment

6.1. You must make your payment of your one-off Pod Drive payment via our online checkout process on our website and/or App when you place your order. In certain circumstances we may contact you directly to help you through the checkout process. The price is £99 per Pod Point or (if different) the amount set out in your order.

6.2. You must pay for your one-off Pod Drive payment in pounds sterling (£) using a credit or debit card issued in the UK. We accept the credit and debit cards specified in our customer journey. All credit and debit card payments need to be authorised by the relevant card issuer.

6.3. We (or our installers) will be in touch to schedule the installation date that we will agree with you in accordance with section ‎8. Once your installation date has been confirmed, we will be in touch and let you know when your first monthly Pod Drive payment is due. This will be at least 6 working days after installation. For more information on installation of your Pod Point, see section ‎8.

6.4. Your monthly Pod Drive payment will for the monthly amount described in your order as described in section ‎4 (your “monthly Pod Drive payment”). You must pay the first monthly Pod Drive payment and each monthly Pod Drive payment by or on its payment date. You must make the payment even if the Pod Point cannot be used for any reason. All monthly Pod Drive payments must be paid by direct debit.

6.5. After the Initial Term of this agreement have passed, this agreement will roll forward unless terminated by you or by us and your regular monthly Pod Drive payment will continue to be due in return for Pod Drive Services, except that we may increase or decrease the amount of the monthly Pod Drive payments after the end of your Initial Term.

6.6. As long as you are up to date with your monthly Pod Drive payments, you can change the payment date of the monthly Pod Drive payments by telling us you want to do this. You can do this by telling us no less than 7 days and no more than 28 days before you want the change to take effect. You can change your payment date 1 time per calendar year.

6.7. Where VAT is payable on an amount you must pay us the amount includes the VAT payable on it. The VAT you pay will be based on the VAT rate in effect on the date of this agreement. If the rate of VAT changes, the VAT you pay will be based on the new rate after we give 3 months' written notice.

6.8. If you don't pay a sum under this agreement when due, you will be in serious breach of this agreement. We treat a payment as received only when we have got the cleared funds. For more information on the consequences of breaching this agreement, see section ‎26.

7. Pod Drive Miles

7.1. As part of your Pod Drive subscription, one of the services you benefit from is our Pod Drive inclusive EV miles (“Miles”) for every mile you drive having charged using our smart-charging system.

7.2. To obtain Miles you agree to plug in your EV into your Pod Point at home regularly. You will use our App to set your EV charging target for the relevant EV and also set the time (for that day or the following day) that you wish to achieve your target EV battery charge level by. You may use your Pod Point to charge more than one EV at separate times if you wish.

7.3. Using our Smart Charging system (see our ‘Smart Charging’ section ‎18 for more details) and your Pod Point we will then charge your plugged-in EV to the target battery level by your target time. We can only achieve the most efficient charging through your Pod Point by using the electricity tariff details you have advised us of, subject always to your EV being correctly connected to your Pod Point and to the details of your electricity tariff being accurate.

7.4. Pod is not responsible for your electricity charges or supply. Your energy supplier will do that, and you should pay your electricity bill as usual. Your Pod Point supports most of the electricity tariffs available in the UK market, however we cannot smart-charge your EV with your Pod Point if at any time your electricity is supplied via a smart electricity tariff that is not a single rate or two rate energy tariffs (as described in the ‘Eligibility’ section at ‎5.1 above).

7.5. For every mile of EV driving that we smart-charge an EV with via your Pod Point, you will accrue Pod Drive included Miles as a reward for smart-charging any connected EV up to your included Miles allowance per calendar year. Miles are calculated in accordance with the below calculation and apply to your Pod account no matter how many EVs you smart-charge.

7.6. Your annual Miles allowance is set at the maximum described in your order as described in section ‎4 - typically a maximum of either 5,000 or 7,500 Miles, see section ‎7.8 below for more details - with such annual term to commence on the day of the installation of your Pod Point and refreshing annually on the anniversary of your installation thereafter.

7.7. Manually charging any EV at peak hours, charging using the ‘Boost’ option on the App, charging using electricity from solar panels and/or home battery storage charge (as described in section ‎21.3 below) and/or charging at any time using a smart electricity tariff (such as Intelligent Octopus Agile and OVO Charge Anytime or other similar smart electricity tariffs, see section ‎5.1 above) will not accrue Miles.

7.8. If your electricity supply is not ‘Half Hourly Settled’ (“HHS”), then your miles allowance may be limited to 5,000 Miles per year (HHS is the basis on which participants in the UK electricity market - including most electricity suppliers, National Grid and Elexon - measure and collate 30-minute electricity readings to work out how much electricity suppliers owe customers for the electricity customers have used). If that applies to your Pod Drive services, we reserve the right in the future to increase your Miles allowance per year (to up to 7,500 Miles) if/when your electricity supplier switches your electricity supply to a HHS basis and/or when other relevant UK regulatory changes take effect which Pod may notify you of. We may make that switch at our discretion and we will notify you when this increase happens. Where your Miles allowance is already 7,500 or above that is because your electricity supply is already HHS (and so no such increase in Miles is envisioned).

7.9. We calculate Miles based on the average efficiency of an EV (3.5 miles per kilowatt-hour (kWh)) and a typical overnight electricity supply rate of £0.0805 (or 8.05p) per kWh. For each Mile accrued up to your annual Miles allowance, Miles will be stored in a separate Miles wallet which you can see and access through your App (your “Wallet”). You will earn £0.023 (2.3p) for each Mile you accrue from a smart-charging session, with the minimum you can earn from a charging session being £0.023 (2.3p). We reserve the right to amend these calculations to reflect typical EV costs in the future. Your Miles are personal to you and can’t be transferred to another party except unless explicitly agreed by us at our discretion.

7.10. We may notify you in future of opportunities to gift, share or otherwise transfer your accrued Miles, and make connected changes to these Terms in accordance with section ‎27 below.

7.11. Your Miles balance will be displayed in British pounds in the App as Miles are accrued, and once you’ve earned a minimum value of £10.00 or more in Miles you may withdraw them as cash into a bank account of your choosing in accordance with these Terms. Your overall Miles allowance would be unaffected. Any Miles balance accrued but not withdrawn on an anniversary of the installation of your Pod Point will not roll-over into your Wallet for the next year and will be lost (so should be withdrawn before that date), although your subsequent year’s Miles allowance will not be affected. You will be able to see how many Miles you have earned and how much of your Miles balance you have withdrawn from your Wallet in the App. We reserve the right in the future to introduce an automatic monthly cash-out mechanism and to amend how your Miles accrue and can be withdrawn from your Wallet to a per-month withdrawal basis, meaning your overall annual Miles allowance would remain (based on your Smart Charging during that year) but the maximum amount of cash you may withdraw that month would be limited to, for example, one twelfth of the cash value of your maximum annual Miles allowance - if such changes take place we will notify you, with explanatory details, in the Pod Home App and/or via email.

7.12. Please note:

• Your Miles have no monetary value until they are withdrawn from your Wallet.
• You can’t change or cancel your withdrawal from your Wallet after you’ve confirmed it.
• We may at our discretion cancel and withdraw any accrued Miles from your wallet if you commit a breach of this agreement (as described in section ‎26 below).
• In future some withdrawal options and special offers may only be available for a short period of time and they may require a minimum Miles balance. Any restrictions will be explained in the offer terms.

8. Arranging delivery and installation

8.1. Once we have established your eligibility for Pod Drive services, you must download our Pod Home App (as described in section ‎4.2 above) and use the App and/or our website to complete our detailed pre-installation home survey. That survey will enable Pod to establish what is required to complete the installation of your Pod Point at your home. The App may also be used to ask you certain affordability questions in connection with your Pod Drive payments.

8.2. You also agree to provide details of your electricity tariff when requested in the App. As described in the ‘Eligibility’ section above, certain electricity tariffs are not compatible with Pod Drive. If you are deemed by us not to be eligible for Pod Drive for any reason, including for reasons connected to electricity tariff or installation ineligibility, any contract for services may be rescinded by Pod and/or Pod Drive services may be withdrawn.

8.3. Following eligibility and affordability being established and a home survey being completed via the App and/or our website, we will schedule an installation date with you and your Pod Point will be delivered and installed on the agreed installation date. We will contact you to agree and schedule your installation date.

8.4. We will aim to schedule the initial installation of your Pod Point for a date within 10 working days’ of the date you finalise your contract with us for Pod Drive. You may reschedule your installation date but you must provide us with at least 2 working days’ notice if you want to do this. If you do not give us at least 2 working days’ notice, we may charge you an additional fee in accordance with our “Schedule of Additional Charges” at the end of these Terms below. To reschedule your appointment, please contact us.

8.5. We will deliver and install the Pod Point to the address at which the Pod Point is to be installed as provided by you when you placed your order.

8.6. If we are unable to deliver and install your Pod Point on the agreed installation date because you cancel with less than 2 full working days’ notice, because you are not at the address to take delivery, or because we otherwise cannot gain access to your property for reasons outside of our control, we will contact you to rearrange your installation date. In such circumstances we may charge you an additional fee of £50 to reschedule your installation.

8.7. If our supply or delivery of your Pod Point is delayed by an event outside our reasonable control (for example, severe weather, epidemic or pandemic, accidents or unpredictable traffic delays) then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this, we will not be responsible for any losses you suffer for delays caused by the event and we will endeavour to rearrange your installation as soon as practicable.

9. Pod Point Installation Services

9.1. Our terms and conditions cover what is included in your standard installation for a Pod Point and what happens if we need to quote for extra works. You agree that we or our installers can access your premises in order to conduct a survey (if needed) and to install the Pod Point.

9.2. Sometimes issues arise on the day that mean we cannot complete your installation on the first visit, but if we know about these in advance, we can often resolve them beforehand.

9.3. For the best experience, please let us know if you think there’s any reason why we might not be able to complete your install on the day (for example if there are any access issues affecting the property).

10. What is included?

10.1.

1. Pod’s standard installation package for our Pod Point covers the majority of homes in the UK and includes the following:

• Fitting of a Pod Point on a brick or plaster wall, or to another suitable permanent structure
• Up to 15 metres (50 feet) of cable, run and neatly clipped to the wall between the electricity supply meter / distribution board and the Pod Point
• Routing of the cable through a drilled hole in a wall up to 500mm (20 inches) thick, if this is needed
• The fitting and testing of electrical connections and protections required for the charger
• An additional three-way consumer unit, if required
• Installation of a Type B or C MCB and a Type A RCD, or equivalent RCBO in an adequate enclosure
• Up to 3 metres (10 feet) of plastic conduit to conceal interior wiring

11. Some conditions and limitations that you need to know

11.1. The Pod Point must be located in your designated off-street parking area and be fixed at a height where it cannot be hit by a vehicle.

11.2. We cannot fix the cable higher than 1.8 metres (6 feet) above the ground. If fixing higher than this is unavoidable then the installation may need to be paused, in which case we will quote for any extra work needed.

11.3. We cannot, as part of the standard package, trench the cable underground or suspend it above ground. If something like this is required, please tell us so that we can give you a quote for additional works in accordance with the ‘Additional works and/or non-standard installations’ section ‎15 below. If we find out on the day that we need to cross a garden or a pathway we may need to pause the installation and quote for the extra work needed to trench the cable.

11.4. When you are using your Pod Point, the EV charging cable must remain on your property (unless you have, and can provide evidence of, written permission from the affected landowner or authority to do otherwise) and your cable must not create a trip hazard for you or anyone else. Pod is not responsible for any damage or injury arising from the use of your Pod Point except as described in section ‎25.

11.5. We cannot run a cable under floorboards or through ducting / ceiling voids / wall voids without a draw cord (to pull the cable through), or if the floorboards have not been lifted. We cannot take responsibility for reinstating flooring or other building materials after the cable has been laid.

11.6. The installer will position the Pod Point at your home as instructed by you. Whilst they can advise on suitable locations for the installation, they do not take responsibility for the final positioning nor the accuracy of any measurements provided to them by you.

11.7. Our installers are not able to work in crawl spaces, on roofs or in lofts if it is deemed unsafe by them. Our installers are also not able to work in extreme weather (e.g. high winds, intense heat or heavy rain). If it is not safe to carry on, they will do as much as they can and will return at a later date.

11.8. If you have chosen a freestanding mount for the Pod Point to be fitted on please be aware that there may be an additional cost for installing it.

11.9. You or a responsible adult of the age of 18 years or over will be needed to certify acceptance of the installation when it is complete and therefore need to be present on site for the entire duration of the installation and you agree to provide us with safe, free and unobstructed access to the relevant parts of your property.

11.10. Our scheduled date for installation is an estimate only. We will let you know as soon as possible in advance if we have to amend this date for any reason.

12. What happens if we find that your existing wiring is not up to scratch?

12.1. We follow BS7671 2008/2015 Amendment 3 Standard Regulations and NICEIC guidelines on electric vehicle installations.

12.2. If we cannot install the Pod Point in line with these rules then your installation will be paused and we will quote for the work needed to meet the required standards. This might include the additional fees described in our “Schedule of Additional Charges” at the end of these Terms below. Your quote will be issued subject to these Terms.

12.3. If the existing electrical arrangements at the property are not in line with these rules or there is something else that makes it unsafe for us to install then we may quote for the work needed to meet the required standards.

13. What happens if your electrical supply is inadequate?

13.1. We can only complete the installation if the electrical capacity (i.e. main fuse) can support the additional electrical demands of the Pod Point. If the capacity is not sufficient, we might be able to de-rate the Pod Point or we may have to pause the installation until your main fuse is upgraded by your electricity supplier.

13.2. We are not responsible if the installation of your Pod Point, including switching off or switching on the power to your home, causes unforeseen damage to other electrical appliances (such as TVs or computers) in your home. This rarely happens, but from time to time old or sensitive appliances can be affected by a power cut or as a result of inadequate wiring in your home. If you are at all concerned about any of your appliances, please unplug or switch them off at the socket prior to installation. If in any doubt, ask your installer for some advice before the installation starts. You can also ask your local grid network operator for advice on how to protect appliances in your home.

14. Timing

15.1. If required, your installation project manager or installer will detail any required or optional works and provide a ‘no-obligation’ quotation for these services. Where applicable this might include the additional fees described in our “Schedule of Additional Charges” at the end of these Terms below. A validity period may apply to the quotation, please speak to your installation project manager or installer.

15.2. These Terms will apply equally to any additional works agreed by you to be performed following your acceptance of our quotation. Quotations for additional works are made on a fixed time/ fixed cost basis and once paid shall not be refundable following the completion of the works.

15.3. If the additional works are minor (less than 2 hours additional time) and can be completed on the day, we will try to complete them on the day so that an additional visit is not required but this will be dependent on our own work scheduling.

15.4. If it is determined that an installation cannot be completed on the day, we will quote for additional works, and a new installation date will be given once payment has been made. Please allow up to 10 working days for a new installation date.

15.5. Your local power network operator may require additional remedial works to be carried out before a Pod Point can be installed at your property. If this is the case, the network operator might provide a quote at additional cost for these additional works.

16. Partner Installers

16.1. We work with a network of Pod Home Approved, trained and accredited third-party installers (“Partner Installers”) alongside our own in-house installation team.

16.2. In certain circumstances we may at our discretion refer your order to a Partner Installer so that they can carry out your installation. If we refer you to a Partner Installer after you have placed an order with us, the Partner Installer who receives your order may make contact to arrange an installation date with you, visit you to carry out the work and deliver your accessories (if they have not been sent via post).

16.3. In these cases your contract for the installation is with Pod (not the Partner Installer) and remains subject to these Terms. We remain responsible to you for the installation work carried out by the Partner Installer on our behalf.

17. Carbon Sync

17.1. All our Pod Points are supplied with a “Carbon Sync” capability. Carbon Sync allows us to briefly pause charging on instruction from official bodies (for example the National Grid) for the purposes of balancing or maintaining stability of the local or national electrical generation or distribution grid. Under normal circumstances, we do not expect Carbon Sync to have any material effect on charging, however, you agree that Carbon Sync may lead to pauses in charging from time to time.

18. Smart Charging

18.1. Every new Pod Point includes smart charging functionality as part of your Pod Drive subscription, whereby you agree to (as a default) let Pod automatically schedule charging during the cheapest and greenest periods possible rather than manually starting and stopping charging yourself (“Smart Charging” or “Smart Charge”). Section ‎6 sets out how that works to charge your EV and accrue Miles. You can always override Smart Charging by using the ‘Boost’ option on the App to charge your EV.

18.2. Once connected to Wi-Fi, the Pod Point will automatically receive over-the-air updates, meaning it continually benefits from the latest software updates available. Connecting your Pod Point to Wi-Fi will also allow you to see the energy used to charge each registered & plugged in EV via the App. The use of your Wi-Fi (and data allowance if any) for our Smart Charging features and any over-the-air updates are at your cost.

18.3. You confirm that by connecting your charger to Wi-Fi, you consent to your electricity usage, charging data and driving data being collected and used by us and provided in the App. All data or information collected from your charger shall be safeguarded and processed in accordance with our Privacy Notice here Privacy Notice | Pod Point. The App provides electricity usage data for information purposes only and should not be used as an electricity meter.

18.4. You will need sufficient Wi-Fi coverage in the location your Pod Point is installed. If your Wi-Fi coverage is not sufficient, any functionality that requires Wi-Fi may not work as intended or at all, for example, over-the-air updates may take a long time to complete or not complete at all, remote support diagnostics may not be possible and charging data may not be properly recorded in the App.

18.5. In addition, if your Wi-Fi is insufficient your Pod Drive Miles will not accrue during any period of insufficient Wi-Fi coverage and we reserve the right to withdraw Miles from you following discovery of insufficient Wi-Fi to the extend that we are unable to Smart Charge using your Pod Point. If your Wi-Fi signal is not sufficient to connect your Pod Point, we will contact or discuss with you to try and get your Wi-Fi back on track. This could include Pod offering you a Wi-Fi extender and if applicable we will provide you with a ‘no-obligation’ quotation for the addition of a Wi-Fi extender.

19. Energy Clamp

19.1. Whilst Smart Charging comes as standard with every Pod Point, the energy clamp will help to unlock even more functionality. Our energy clamp has a power balancing feature that monitors your home energy consumption, and regulates your charging rate to prevent the overloading of your property’s electricity supply. The energy clamp is installed with every new Pod Point purchased via our online checkout. During your installation, the installer will simply attach the clamp around the electricity meter tails and wire it into the Pod Point.

19.2. Customers with solar power, detached garage installations and three-phase power supplies may experience limited energy clamp functionality which will be assessed on the day of installation.

19.3. Please note, any alterations to our charger or its installation after we have installed it may impact the charger’s functionality and/or invalidate your warranty. Please call our support team if you have any questions.

19.4. If your charger is installed on a secondary distribution board, the energy clamp will not be effective to protect your primary distribution board from overloading.

20. Do not open, move, modify, rewire, tamper or interfere with your Pod Point once it has been installed

20.1. You must ensure that an installed Pod Point is not opened, moved, modified, re-wired, or otherwise tampered or interfered with, without first referring to Pod’s latest technical guides and/or notifying Pod directly and complying with Pod’s recommendations. Please also see the Pod Point applicable Warranty terms which may be affected by such action being taken (see section ‎22 ‘Our warranty – repairs, maintenance and 48-hour Recharge’ below). If you have any concerns in relation to a Pod Point that has already been opened, moved, re-wired or otherwise has been tampered or interfered with, please notify Pod directly so that appropriate advice can be provided.

20.2. In the absence of any negligence or other breach of duty by Pod, Pod is not responsible for injury, loss or damage caused by the Pod Point being opened, moved, modified, re-wired or otherwise tampered or interfered with by the customer or a third party (and not by Pod or a Partner Installer).

20.3. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our responsibility for death or personal injury caused by our negligence (including our agents and subcontractors), fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for our breach of any of your legal rights you have as a consumer (including the right to receive the products which are fit for purpose, as described and which are of satisfactory quality and the installation services provided with reasonable care and skill).

20.4. We are not responsible for any loss or damage caused if we fail to comply with these Terms, if there is a delay, or we are unable to provide the products and services to you, as a result of something beyond our reasonable control (for example, severe weather, accidents, pandemic or unpredictable traffic delays). We are also not responsible for any loss or damage if something was unavoidable despite us using reasonable care and skill to avoid it. This could include land ownership issues, listed buildings, power supply or existing wiring problems. You will not be able to claim for losses that resulted from circumstances that we could not or should not have been expected to know about.

21. Post-Installation

21.1. Once your Pod Point has been installed and commissioned by our installer (or by the installer from our Partner Installer), you agree to connect your Pod Point to your home Wi-Fi. You agree to provide our installer with access to your Wi-Fi to finalise your installation.

21.2. After your Pod Point has been installed, you may be prompted in the App to connect one or more EV to your Pod Point via a third-party provider called ‘Enode’. Access to Enode is included in the Pod Drive services and allows Pod to read your vehicle to know exactly how much electricity is needed to reach your target EV battery charge level. Where possible you agree to register any applicable EVs with Enode when prompted to in the App, although this is not a mandatory requirement for Pod Drive services to work with your EV (and your EV can still be Smart Charged without registering for Enode).

21.3. If your Pod Point is or will be connected to any domestic solar panels and/or home battery storage systems, your EV may still be charged via your Pod Point using electricity from either source but you recognise and accept that charging this way is not Smart Charging and will not contribute to your Miles under these Terms.

21.4. If you move home during the Initial Term, provided you have given us at least 30 days’ notice you may either terminate the Services agreement for Pod Drive (subject to the rest of this section ‎21.4 and to full payment of the outstanding monthly Pod Drive payments from the date of termination, see section ‎26.5 for more details) or you may enter into a new agreement for Pod Drive services at your new property to replace your existing order. If you elect to agree a new Pod Drive agreement for a new Pod Point order at your new property, a new order will be created as described in section 4 which (from the date agreed by you and us) replaces your existing order for Pod Drive services. In the case of a new Pod Drive agreement, if it turns your new home is not eligible for Pod Drive services, we reserve the right to terminate such agreement and recover from you full payment of the outstanding monthly Pod Drive payments for the previous Pod Drive order at your previous property (see section ‎26.5 for more details).

22. Our warranty - repairs, maintenance and 48-hour Recharge

22.1. Whilst you maintain a Pod Drive services subscription in accordance with these Terms, your Pod Point is covered by a comprehensive lifetime repair or replacement warranty (the “Warranty”) covering any faults arising due to Pod’s product or installation provided that we (or one of our Install Partners) installed the Pod Point. If you purchased the relevant Pod Point from, or had it installed by, an unconnected third party then our Warranty only applies in respect of problems with the product itself and does not cover problems arising from the installation. Please see the separate Warranty statement applicable to your Pod Point (the “Warranty Statement”) and the “What our warranty does not cover” section 22 below for more details on this.

22.2. The Warranty period commences on the date of the installation of the Pod Point and applies to Pod Points installed in the UK only. Any fault or other defect should be promptly reported to us via help.pod-point.com as soon as you become aware of it.

22.3. When reporting a fault, please quote the serial number, the date of installation and a brief description of the fault. The Pod technical team will carry out an assessment and will contact you to get further details and attempt to fix the fault remotely. If we deem it necessary, we will offer to you to arrange an engineer service visit at your home to repair or replace the Pod Point.

22.4. After this assessment, such engineer service visit will be offered to you to take place no later than 48 hours from the time at which the Pod technical team offer to arrange a service visit. If that service visit cannot be arranged or does not take place within 48 hours of it being offered solely due to Pod’s delay, then we agree to refund to you a cash recharge amount to enable you to charge your vehicle elsewhere for the days (or part days) outside that period when your Pod Point has not been repaired or replaced (the “Recharge” amount). That Recharge amount will, at our discretion, be the equivalent of your typical daily electricity charge via your Pod Point - measured as an average of your daily charge in the preceding 60 days, multiplied by the per kWh cost of a typical Pod ‘rapid’ (up to) 50kW public charger. This Recharge is capped up to the maximum value of £50 per day that we have not repaired or replaced your Pod Point in accordance with these Terms (although in practice we would expect the recharge to be less than that amount per day).

22.5. Once a service visit has been scheduled, you must provide us with at least 2 working days’ notice if you wish to reschedule it. To reschedule your service visit, please contact us at the details provided above. If you do not give us at least 2 working days’ notice or if nobody is present to provide access on the date of our service visit, you will not be entitled to any Recharge payments and we may charge you an additional fee in accordance with our “Schedule of Additional Charges” below. In addition, such Recharge payments will not be due to you where the service repair does not take place due to circumstances beyond our control, such as a force majeure event or something caused by a third party for whom we are not responsible.

22.6. We reserve the right to decide whether to repair or replace the Pod Point or any faulty parts or installation (using either new or reconditioned parts or equipment). Alternatively, we may replace the Pod Point with one that is of the same or later version.

22.7. You have statutory rights in relation to the Pod Point and Pod Drive services and those rights are not affected by this warranty.

23. What our warranty does not cover

23.1. Our Warranty does not apply in those circumstances set out in our Warranty Statement. This includes in respect of normal ageing, accidental damage and wear-and-tear (e.g. discoloration, normal corrosion/ oxidation) or faults arising from abnormal usage or environmental conditions (such as extreme adverse weather, fire, wind or water damage or other natural disasters).

23.2. The Warranty for your Pod Point will be void if the circumstances set out in the Warranty Statement take place. These include if your Pod Point is opened, moved, modified, tampered with or any repair is attempted by anyone other than a Pod authorised electrician or Partner Installer, is used in a manner that is not in accordance with our relevant user guide or other user or installation instructions issued by us including via our App.

23.3. Faulty chargers being repaired or replaced by us may be returned to our laboratory for assessment. If the fault is found to have arisen due to any reason for which our Warranty does not apply, we reserve the right to recover the costs of the repair or replacement from you.

23.4. If you believe the fault is with the product, please ensure the Pod Point is connected to Wi-Fi to allow us to run remote diagnostic tests to confirm the nature of the fault and contact us using the details provided above.

24. Responsibility for loss and damage to the Pod Point

24.1. After the Pod Point is installed at your property, you are responsible for any loss or damage to it to the extent it is not covered by our Warranty

25. Our responsibility to you

25.1. We are responsible to you for any direct and foreseeable loss and damage which we cause if we breach these Terms or we are negligent.

25.2. We are not responsible to you for: any loss or damage not caused by our breach or negligence; or loss of profits, loss of use, lost business, wages or missed opportunities; or for any loss or damage that is not a direct result of something we did (or failed to do) and/or was not reasonably foreseeable at the time these Terms were agreed by you. Pod shall not be liable for any loss, damage, or injury arising from the use of a Pod Point by you or others. However, nothing in these Terms limits our liability for death or personal injury or fraud or anything else that cannot be limited by law.

25.3. To be clear, we are also not responsible to you for:

• Any loss suffered due to circumstances beyond our control, such as a force majeure event or caused by a third party for whom we are not responsible;
• Any loss, damage or injury suffered as a result of someone that is not directly authorised by us opening, moving, modifying, rewiring, tampering or interfering with and/or repairing or attempting to repair your Pod Point;
• The installation of, or any services provided in relation to, any Pod Point by someone that is not directly authorised by us.
• Any loss or damage to other electrical appliances in your home due to the installation of your charger such as from switching off or switching on the power during installation or service, or inadequate wiring installation in your home;
• Any loss of use, or corruption of, software, data or information;
• Any loss suffered as a result of incorrect instructions or information that you have provided to us relating to your installation;
• Any loss suffered due to an aborted installation where it is not safe or practical to proceed with the installation; or
• For any loss suffered if the installation is delayed or cannot be performed because you fail to make the location available to us, or prepare the location as required in order for us to perform the installation.

26. What happens if you breach this agreement?

26.1. Through your actions you could breach these Terms/this agreement in a number of ways, including by (among other things):

• Failing repeatedly and/or consistently to ensure your Pod Point remains connected to the internet via Wi-Fi;
• Failing to remain eligible for Pod Drive as described in the ‘Eligibility’ section ‎5.1 above;
• Failing to make your monthly Pod Drive payments in accordance with section ‎6, not making those payments on time or failing to pay any other amounts you have agreed to pay to Pod; and/or
• Failing to do any of the other things described in section ‎‎2.3 above.

26.2. If you do breach these Terms/this agreement (including by failing to make your monthly Pod Drive payments), we will contact you to try and get you back on track. This might include attempting in good faith to agree alternative payment arrangements if you face financial difficulties.

26.3. If you breach these Terms/this agreement and that breach cannot in our view be remedied or has not been remedied through discussions with you or happens repeatedly, we reserve the right to do any or all of the following:

• Notify you via the App or other channel that a monthly Pod Drive payment is outstanding and/or notify any relevant credit reference agency;
• suspend or withdraw the Warranty connected with your Pod Point, including suspending our obligations to fix any faulty Pod Point within 48 hours and the payment of any Recharge amounts. If we suspend or withdraw your Warranty under this section, then in the event of a fault with your Pod Point (as described in the Warranty Statement) the 48 hour service agreement will not apply until this suspension is lifted by us, and we agree only to arrange an engineer visit to repair and/or replace your Pod Point within 14 days of being notified of any relevant fault;
• suspend or cancel your entitlement to earn Miles from that point and/or withdraw at our discretion any or all Miles allowance accrued by you prior to your breach (even where such Miles are in your Wallet);
• suspend or withdraw all Pod Drive services, including access to our App to control your Pod Point, your ability to schedule any charge for an EV and/or your ability to Smart Charge any EV;
• de-rate your Pod Point’s ability to charge any EVs from the maximum 7.4kW down to no-lower-than 2.4kW; and/or
• Terminate this agreement.

26.4. You must pay us, when we ask, for our reasonable losses, costs, expenses, claims or liabilities that have resulted because:

• you have provided us with information that is false or inaccurate in an important way;
• you have breached the agreement as described in section ‎26.1;
• we have to enforce this agreement (including by taking you to court); or
• of an alleged breach of any law or regulation involving the charger or its use.

26.5. When this agreement ends because of a reason described in section ‎26.1, you must pay to us straightaway all outstanding costs, charges and monthly Pod Drive payments which Pod considers to be fairly and reasonably due or would otherwise (but for such termination) be due up to end of the Initial Term.

27. Other legal stuff

27.2. You may not transfer our contract with you or your rights under it without first getting our written consent.

27.3. If you breach these Terms and we do nothing or delay taking action, we will still be entitled to take action to enforce this breach or a similar or subsequent breach of the contract with you.

• To reflect changes in any relevant laws or regulations or industry codes of practice.
