Expedient and courteous customer service
The app works well. It’s essentially a map that only shows Volta charging stations near you. Nothing fancy, but functional. There’s nothing more I’d want from an app. When I had an issue with a charging station, I called the 1-800 number, but didn’t hear back that day. Once I put it in through the app on the following day, they emailed me back within the hour. Although the number is not the best way to get ahold of someone at Volta, the issue report feature in the app does seem to make up for that. This app is helpful, simple, and useful. Love it.

Great support, but lacking features
Volta responses to concerns about charging stations in Hawaii super fast. The representatives are super nice and comprehensive. The one thing that we don’t like at the chargers is that we never know when one is not working. If we get to a charger early to avoid lots of lines, we can sit in our car up to an hour before the unit turns on and not even know that the station is broken. So, we wish to know if the station is broken but there’s no way to tell. Anyway, thank you so much for the free energy!

Volta is 100% FREE.
As an EV driver (Tesla), I can tell you that I prefer Volta over any of the other level 2 charging stations. Why? First and foremost, Chargepoint, Blink, EVGo costs $$$$ to the consumer (most of the time, sometimes Blink is free). Volta is 100% FREE. It makes it free by charging for the advertisements on the electric billboards. Second, the charging stations are physically located closest to the entrance of whatever store/mall/etc it is located. So you get a prime parking/charging location. So I was ecstatic when they announced their IPO this year. Can’t wait for the future!
