How do less banked people charge an electric car?

Context: I don’t own an electric car yet. I don’t have a credit card due to identity theft.

    They were doing so to find out which country you lived in, since you neglected to provide that information yourself.

    I’m British, I charge my car at home, and on the few occasions I use public chargers, I interface with and pay for them through apps.

    Knowing that you are from the US, though, means that YMMV. Your home electric supplies have significantly lower voltage than here in Europe, so home charging might be a less viable option.

    They weren’t being creepy, they were trying to give you a helpful answer.

      240v wiring is common in Canada and the US, just not all outlets, and until recently not usually in garages. I expect 240v outlets in garages to be more standard in the future.

      But, creepy or no, posting on a public forum and not using throwaway accounts and then being surprised that people actually reference your posting history is hopelessly naive.
