  • Many thanks for highlighting this.  I did receive an email about Dart Charge deactivating my account way back in Nov. but due to illness never got round to doing anything about it.  One quick phone call to Dart Charge this morning and a cheque for £11.94 is winging it's way to me.  Once travel is possible for me I can open a new account.    Thanks, guys.
    I'll catch up tomorrow!
