ARTICLE 5: CONDITIONS OF USE OF THE CHARGING SERVICE

5.1. GMOB Charge Pass

Each GMOB Charge Pass allows the Customer to Charge a Vehicle at the Charging Stations accessible within the framework of the Subscribed Formula, as well as at Third Party Charging Stations within the framework of the Outgoing Roaming of the Charge. The GMOB Charge Pass enables the Recharge to be initiated or interrupted, as well as the associated invoicing. The different stages of access and termination of Charging using a GMOB Charge Pass for a Vehicle may vary depending on the Charging Stations used. The terms of use are provided within the Charging Station, available on the GMOB Website, the Application and in article 5.2.1 below. The GMOB Charge Pass is a means of payment that can be dematerialised by entering a unique identifier (provided by GMOB at the time of Subscription) on the mobile application, or materialised by an RFID card. It is the property of the Customer as of its reception. A GMOB Charge Pass is associated with a Customer, but a Customer may have several GMOB Charge Passes. The validity period of the GMOB Charge Pass(es) corresponds to the duration of the Contract.

Precautions of use

Each GMOB Charge Pass only works on Charging Stations equipped with a compatible technical solution (RFID), and/or connected to the GMOB network, while being attached to the Charging Station Networks to which the Customer has access on the day of using the Charging Service. Each physical GMOB Charge Pass has an encoding whose proper functioning depends on basic precautions of use. The Client is solely responsible for the use of each GMOB Charge Pass delivered and is invited to respect all the instructions for use brought to his attention, in particular not to subject it to twisting, folding, cutting, high or low temperatures, electromagnetic effects, a high level of humidity and any other treatment that is manifestly inappropriate for the proper functioning of the GMOB Charge Pass. If these instructions are not respected, the Charging Service may be degraded and the Customer risks billing anomalies.

Loss, theft or damage of GMOB Charge Pass

In the event of loss or theft of a GMOB Charge Pass, the Customer must inform GMOB without delay by any means and confirm this in writing to the contact details in article 17.2 (by email or via the Customer Area). The Customer must imperatively mention his/her Customer identification number or the GMOB Charge Pass number. The Customer may request the issue of replacement GMOB Charge Passes which will be issued and invoiced to him under the conditions set out in article 7.2. In the absence of such opposition, GMOB declines all responsibility in the event of misuse by a third party of a lost or stolen GMOB Charge Pass, the Customer then remaining liable for the sums due in respect of any use of each GMOB Charge Pass that he/she holds.

In the event of failure of a GMOB Charge Pass, the Customer must inform GMOB without delay and then return it to GMOB using the contact details in article 17.2. If the malfunction is not attributable to the Customer, the faulty GMOB Charge Pass shall be replaced free of charge. The liability of GMOB is limited to the replacement of the faulty GMOB Charge Pass. If after verification the failure is attributable to the Customer, GMOB shall invoice the Customer for the cost of the damaged GMOB Charge Pass, as well as the additional costs related to it (participation in packaging and shipping costs, commissioning and activation costs, support, etc.).

In all cases of loss, theft or damage :

  • GMOB will then deactivate the GMOB Charge Pass upon receipt of the report of loss, theft or damage of the GMOB Charge Pass;
  • GMOB will not refund any GMOB Charge Passes requested by the Customer under a new Contract between the date of loss, theft or defect of the GMOB Charge Pass and the date of receipt by the Customer of the replacement GMOB Charge Pass;
  • Unless otherwise agreed, the billing for the subscribed Formula will not be interrupted (fixed part).

Request for replacement and revocation of Charge Pass GMOB by GMOB

GMOB may initiate the withdrawal or possible replacement of the GMOB Charge Pass in the event of termination of the Contract by GMOB, fraud, alteration or counterfeiting of the GMOB Charge Pass or incompatibility with the improvements made by GMOB to the Charging Service and/or the Charging Stations. In all cases, GMOB shall inform the Customer in advance and, once the problem has been resolved, shall provide the Customer with a new GMOB Charge Pass and shall deactivate the previous GMOB Charge Pass, rendering the latter inoperative on the Charging Stations.

5.2. Conditions of use of Charging Stations

5.2.1. Functioning

Customers access and use the Charging Stations by using a GMOB Charge Pass or the Mobile Application or a Third Party Badge.

To use a Charging Station, the Customer or User must park the Vehicle in a space at a Charging Station that can be identified by specific signs and markings on the ground. To connect and charge his Vehicle at a Charging Station, the Customer or User must only use the Charging Station cable when it is attached to the Charging Station and forms an integral part thereof, to the exclusion of any other Accessory. If the Charge Point does not have a cable and it is a plug, it is up to the Customer/User to connect his cable to the Charge Point. Before any use, the Customer/User must ensure that he/she has an approved cable that is compatible with the Charging Station and allows the connection of his/her Vehicle. The Customer or User undertakes to use the socket that corresponds to its needs and the technical characteristics of its Vehicle.

To proceed with the Charging of their Vehicle once the cable is connected on both sides, the Customer must pass their GMOB Charge Pass (or for the Third Party User their Third Party Badge) over the badge reader of the Charging Station in order to lock the cable and trigger the charging. It is also possible for the Customer to trigger the charging from the Application either by scanning the QR code of the Charging Point or by selecting it from those displayed in the Application and choosing his means of payment. In the same way, the Anonymous User can either scan the QR Code present on the Charge Point or select it on the Application and then enter his method of payment (other than the GMOB Charge Pass) to trigger the charging.

At the end of use, to end the charging of their Vehicle, the Customer must pass their GMOB Charge Pass (or for the Third Party User, their Third Party Badge) over the badge reader of the Charging Station and release the Charging Station by disconnecting the cable. It is also possible for the customer to stop charging remotely from the Application. If he is an Anonymous User, he stops the Charging using the Application. If the cable used is that of the Charging Station, the Customer or User puts it back in the Charging Station. It may be necessary to unlock the charging cable by also unlocking the vehicle with the Customer/User key. The Charging Station is considered to be released when the Vehicle is no longer connected to the Charging Station, when the Charging Station door is closed by the Customer or User and the Vehicle is no longer parked in the corresponding parking space.

If the Charging Station cannot be released correctly, the Customer or the User must inform GMOB as soon as possible by telephone on the technical support number mentioned in article 17.1 or on the Charging Station. The Third Party User must also contact his mobility operator.

5.2.2. Booking a Charging Station

Provided that this functionality is available, the Customer or Anonymous User may reserve a Charging Station using the Application. GMOB will inform the Customer or Anonymous User when this functionality is available. The duration of the reservation is limited to 20 minutes before arrival, after confirmation of the reservation by GMOB which will be sent to the Customer via the Application. The reservation shall be considered as used when the GMOB Charge Pass is affixed to the reserved Charging Station or when the Application is used by the Customer to start the Charging. After 20 minutes, the reservation will be cancelled. A reservation that is not honoured or is cancelled shall result in the invoicing of penalties, the amount of which appears on the GMOB Website and on the Mobile Application.

5.3. Access and use of Third Party Charging Stations using a GMOB Charge Pass or the Mobile Application

The use of Third Party Charging Stations by the Customer using a GMOB Charge Pass or the Application must be done in accordance with the conditions of use laid down by the operator of said Stations (Outgoing Roaming) and in compliance with the instructions for use on the Third Party Charging Stations.

5.4. Access and use of Charging Stations with a Third Party Badge

The Charging Stations making up the Network may also be accessible to Third Party Users holding a Third Party Badge authorised by GMOB: in this case, the Charging Stations must be used in accordance with these GCAU, the instructions for use appearing on the Charging Stations and the conditions of use of the Third Party Badges issued by these operators.

5.5. Allocation of parking spaces for Charging

The parking spaces at the Charging Sites dedicated to the Charging Service may only be used for Charging the Vehicles. Consequently, it is strictly forbidden for the Customer and the User to park in these parking spaces if the Vehicle is not being charged. The Customer and the User are required to comply with the applicable parking rules. If they fail to do so, the Customer or the User may be liable to have the Vehicle removed and/or to be fined, fined or fined, for which they shall be responsible for all the consequences, particularly financial.

5.6. Security

The Customer's and User's attention is drawn to the need to ensure that the Accessories are in good condition before using the Charging Stations. The Customer or User must remain vigilant to any signal emitted by the warning lights appearing on the Charging Stations and/or on his Vehicle. In the event of an alert, such as an anomaly or fault observed on a Charging Station, the Customer or User shall take all precautionary measures to ensure the safety of the Vehicle and third parties, such as, in particular, disconnecting the Vehicle without delay, activating the emergency stop button (if present on the station) and calling the technical assistance service, the telephone number of which is mentioned on the Charging Station or in article 17.1.
