Forgot to return it? Charged £28?

  • Return it. Drop at any station via the app for a £15 refund.

Questions, sorted

The stuff people ask us most. Can't find the answer? Email hello@cheekycharging.com.

How much does Cheeky Charging cost?

5 minutes free. £3 for the first 30 minutes, £1 every 30 minutes after that. Maximum charge is £28 — at that point the charger is yours to keep as a portable power bank.

Returned it to a Cheeky station within 7 days? You get a £15 refund.

I accidentally took the charger home — what now?

No stress. You've been charged £28 and the charger is yours as a portable power bank. If you'd like the £15 refund, just return it to any Cheeky station within 7 days and email hello@cheekycharging.com with your account email — we'll process the refund within 5 working days.

I paid but no charger came out

Sorry about that. If no charger was released, the pending payment will automatically bounce back to your account within 2–3 working days. You won't actually be charged.

If you don't see the money return, email hello@cheekycharging.com with the transaction reference and we'll sort it.

I think I've been charged the wrong amount

Double-check the time you had the charger against our pricing (5 mins free, £3 first 30, £1 per 30 after, £28 cap). If the numbers still don't add up, email hello@cheekycharging.com with your account email and the rental time and we'll look into it.

Which devices does it work with?

Every Cheeky charger has three cables built in — USB-C, Lightning, and micro-USB — so it works with iPhones, Android phones, and most other devices.

Can I return the charger to a different station?

Yes. Any Cheeky station, any time. Find your nearest one in the app.
