Non-Tesla charging locations can be hit or miss. As others have mentioned, many spots only have 2-4 stations, with at least one often out of order and others occupied by cars that have been sitting there for a while. If you manage to find a working charger, actually paying for it can be a hassle. I’ve had situations where I skipped the wait at Tesla chargers and tried another network, maybe EA. Despite having the app and using it before, it wouldn’t work. My credit card didn’t go through either, so I used my bank card, which worked for half the charge, but then stopped working for the rest.
