    How long to get the $50k deposit back?

    Asked the Tesla SMS system how to cancel the Roadster and was told it could be done "In your Tesla account" which I'm pretty sure is as contrived as thinking the Roadster will arrive before 2028. I don't think 1% of management knows what is going on at Tesla and that starts at the top.

    Ordered 11/29 (Red LR + 20") - Delivery on 12/10 - was credited $3750 (automatically)

    It’s now stuck in Nebraska ?? Not sure how a vehicle going from California to Florida makes it to Nebraska but who knows. Went to the Tampa dealer today to inquire and their entire lots are full of cars with license plants so bought and paid for vehicles under repair. Can’t wait to see the...

    Ordered 11/29 (Red LR + 20") - Delivery on 12/10 - was credited $3750 (automatically)

    They are telling me it’s still in California. Any bad weather between Fremont and the southern route out of California ? I paid for it specifically to lock in the new contract price which had been reduced. What can happen, they keep my money and the car? Seems ridiculous but it’s the new...

    Ordered 11/29 (Red LR + 20") - Delivery on 12/10 - was credited $3750 (automatically)

    Received my VIN number Dec 20th with delivery Dec 29 - Dec 31. Was given credit for the Dec purchase on my contract and have paid for the car. Now Tesla is saying vehicle is delayed due to severe weather conditions. I live in Tampa. Fremont to Tampa or Austin to Tampa where’s the severe...

    How long to get the $50k deposit back?

    After I called ready to go to the mat with Tesla I was greeted with my 5th sales rep who seemed a little more on the ball than the previous 4. Good sign # 1. While I explained the situation once more he sent me an e-mail while talking to me apologizing and wanted to resolve the issue. Good...

    How long to get the $50k deposit back?

    Last 2 months please ? Are they giving you any kind of update where they are in the process or just using your money to finance other projects? (Debt reduction) Seems purchasers have been waiting years so far. (And many more years into the future) The freebie Roadsters I get they will be...

    How long to get the $50k deposit back?

    More than welcome. After 2 months they can’t even acknowledge they have my 50k. They say I can cancel but since they don’t even recognize my deposit nothing occurs. Tomorrow will start the formal process of litigation. All I have is verbal acknowledgment they recognize my wire transfer and a...

    How long to get the $50k deposit back?

    After 2 months and with "hope" Tesla could actually e-mail me confirming my deposit (This is what was printed once you made your deposit in the reservation would occur) and 4 or 5 phone calls as reps saying I would get a notification soon, tomorrow will formally request my deposit back. How can...

    How long to get the $50k deposit back?

    Federal Taxes, adding 250 k to your income is bound to produce an interesting marginal tax rate albeit CA can get pretty nasty State Taxes.....good thing property and income taxes are low......

    How long to get the $50k deposit back?

    What I think a lot of referral winners don't yet realize is that they'll owe regular income tax (Fed+State) on the value of the Founder's Series Roadster (likely $250k). So take your combined effective tax rate times $250k and that's the tax these folks will owe in the year the award is...

    How long to get the $50k deposit back?

    After well over a month after my deposit was paid, I can't even get Tesla to confirm they have my money. (My bank shows the wire transfer going through) What was the address used to request the 50k deposit back? If they can't even acknowledge the deposit, how can they build a super car...

    Roadster 2023

    Third call occurred 2 days ago. They have until the end of the week to acknowledge they received my wire transfer now well over a month ago or I will ask for it back. How can one build a super car when you can't even acknowledge an order? This is not rocket science..........
