Key points in this article
Idle fee talk travels by word of mouth, true and false mixed. We sorted what can be stated plainly so the fee is understood as a fairness tool rather than a petty punishment on a forgetful driver.
The misunderstandings to set aside
Two extremes: fearing the fee or denying it exists. The fairer view sorts the scenario before applying any charge, and safety stays the precondition that governs every other decision about the stall.
Preconditions that must be ready
Before an idle fee works fairly, post the rule where drivers see it, show a clear notice at the stall, and record the occupied window. Without these, the fee feels arbitrary. With them, it protects turnover for everyone who needs the charger.
Dongshang New Energy sets idle fees only where the preconditions are met, so the charge reads as fair, not punitive, and drivers accept it because the rules were visible before they ever plugged in. When the rules are visible before you park, the idle fee feels fair rather than like a trap set after the fact.
