Good idea

Review of Chargecandy at Reading Festival

Reading festival was an absolute blast.. if only I had enough charge in my phone to record more of it!! Paid extortionate prices to have a charger over the weekend, that managed to charge my phone about 20% every time. Shocking, and when I went to a charge candy stand to swap it out, I was met with dubious looks and attitude from the staff member! Will never be buying this rubbish ever again.

Epic, insane, awesome

Review of Chargecandy at Reading Festival

They were good however only allowed one charge.

Review of Chargecandy at Reading Festival

reading was amazing but i paid £30 to have one charger a day for three days and the chargers didn’t even fully charge my phone before dying. Utterly not worth the money. I know people who invested £30 into a good portable charger and that fully charged their phone more than five times through the five days of festival and still had charge. Waste of money, definitely won’t be using them next year.

Chargers were not working properly

Review of Chargecandy at Reading Festival

I bought 2 contracts for my daughter and her friend. They went to 3 different charging stations and were told it’s not them. Asked around even organisers and no-one knew where they were located. Ended up paying again to charge on-site. Complete waste of money

Review of Chargecandy at Reading Festival

most of the chargers only charged 20% so not ideal if you’re spending £30+

Review of Chargecandy at Reading Festival

wasnt able to return the charger bevause it wasn’t open before 10 even tho reading travel is arranged at 8 am

Really good service & would definitely use again.

Review of Chargecandy at Reading Festival

Festival great and it was good to have a charger everyday. However it struggled to fully charge my phone (big battery) and I couldn’t return on final day as the stand didn’t open early enough and there was no drop off box. So i have now ended up with a charger i don’t want and lost my £10 deposit!
An alternative means of dropping it back early on departure day would be a good idea as loads of festival goings want to leave early to avoid traffic or due to limited transport as it was a bank holiday.

Class time

Review of Chargecandy at Reading Festival

Not really worth money, the idea is great but would work so much better if it was unlimited swaps as the actual charger doesn’t even last one full charge before dying. My phone wasn’t ever fully charged the entire weekend. I wouldnt mind so much if it wasn’t so expensive, but paying over £20 for a charger that you cant even get one full charge out of is ridiculous.
