20241018 E.ON Next blog EON Drive Comfort

For electric vehicle (EV) drivers, reliable access to public charging points is key to a smooth, stress-free journey. That's where the E.ON Drive Comfort app comes in, offering you the ultimate solution for out of home EV charging.

With access to over 20,000 charge points across the UK and an impressive 500,000 throughout Europe, this app for EV charging stations (and more) ensures you’re never far from the power you need.

Unlike other EV charging apps, there are no long term commitments with E.ON Drive Comfort. And you don’t even need to be an E.ON or E.ON Next customer to take advantage of it.

Looking for a charging station? Let E.ON Drive Comfort help.

With E.ON Drive Comfort, you can pay just for the electricity you use, or subscribe for just £5.99 a month and enjoy 10% off charging prices. Both the Flex and Plus plans come with the convenience of monthly billing and zero commitments.

So whether you prefer the flexibility of Flex plan or the savings of Plus, it’s all designed to keep you on the road with the minimum of hassle.

How do I use the E.ON Drive Comfort app for EV charging stations?

Getting started is simple: download the app for your iPhone or Android device, register, and create your account. Once you're set up, you can search for public chargers by location or explore the EV station map to find the best options nearby. The app even offers real time updates on station availability, so you’ll always know where to go and how to get there.

When it comes to charging your car with the E.ON Drive Comfort app, it’s as simple as choosing a charging station based on your location and our smart recommendations. You’ll get an overview of which charging points are available, how to get there and which ones are the best fit for you.

Once at your chosen station, just swipe to start charging and follow the on screen instructions. When you’re done, just end the session with another swipe.

To make things even easier, you can order a charging card (RFID Card) directly through the app and link it to your account. This card allows for seamless charging sessions, so you don’t have to rely solely on your phone when powering up your EV.

If you (or your household) have more than one EV, that’s not a problem either. You can have multiple cars on the one app.

Why choose E.ON Drive Comfort to find public EV charging stations?

With over 500,000 public chargers across Europe and 20,000 in the UK alone, our app for EV charging stations should always help you find a place to power up.

And not only does the app allow you to search for chargers, you can also check their availability, pay, and charge - all in one place.

There are also “smart” real time scores1 for the stations, the performance of their chargers and availability.

Plus you can choose a plan that best suits your charging needs (more on that below).

And let’s not forget the dedicated 24/7 support for any charging issues or app related questions you may have.
