Can I use charge points abroad if they have a '?' on the app?
You can of course try to use them but a ? indicates unknown chargepoint status. This means it is not clear wether the CP is functional and we always advise against using a charge point without information. We dont want you to make a detour, or rely on charge point that is then not working. Always check the Shell Recharge app for available charge points.
