Hive free charge

Has anybody used this - I have a hive charger which is 32a and the car is 16a. Is this a problem with the free charge - wish I had known this before.

I no nothing of hive chargers but a 32a EV charger is fine for the Kuga. Most household EV chargers max out at 32a as does mine.
What do mean by 'free charge'?

Thanks Dave. I have a new charger with Hive - they give 1 years free charging ( called (free charge) to new users - when I spoke with their support today they were looking at the possibility of the 16/32 a issue as a possible cause of my free credit not being applied. It seems I may have to wait a few days to see it in the hive app.
Thanks for the reply - it’s appreciated.

That is the maximum rating for the charger. Not an issue as the car will not charge at more than its maximum rate.
