How do less banked people charge an electric car?

Context: I don't own an electric car yet. I don't have a credit card due to identity theft.

If you have a garage, at home. You might want you drop more details to get better answers. E.g. location.

    I will be that guy and not answer your original question. If you don’t have a way to charge at home, don’t get an electric car.

    Besides the convenience factor, it’s far too expensive to use public chargers. It will not be worth it at all.

    Where I live gas powered vehicles will be forbidden from being sold. It's getting harder to get a gas car.

    You can't afford a credit card or some kind of parking space with electricity, but you can afford a brand new car?

    I can afford a credit card. The credit check would be the issue. I use cash or check for everything.

    As far as a car goes, yes. In theory I could. But my current vehicle works fine. It's a bit older,so I want to know my future options

    If you have no driveway, where are you currently parking? Level 1 or 2 chargers just connect to an exterior outlet on the house, so you could just plug it in via cable, so you don't have to have it in a garage. You may risk having someone steal your electrical cables, though, if you don't have some way of locking the cable to your house.
