Rene I only use 7kwh chargers so don’t block anyone. My app lets me know when the car is full so I’m on it as soon as it’s ready.
If it’s a charger that only does 7kw with no option (paid or unpaid) to go faster, then yeah, go for it.
If it’s a 50kw charger that’s only 7kw if used free (but 50kw if paid), then my point (for me) still stands.
If i’m not mistaken, our local Tescos offers 22kw charging for free (50kw paid), while still not fast, it’s like 7 times more than our car can take (but nowhere near what most EVs can charge with), so i do pass on those.
