My order was placed with Tesla on 09/02 (via salary sacrifice fleet firm). Delivery confirmed for 09/03, text was received from Tesla 13/02. I have the same spec as you if that’s any help. Not sure if you may be offered existing stock if there are any but it seems fleet lease orders are being...

No, confirmation of payee is different to the banks holding beneficiary details. For confirmation of payee, your bank will send an API call to the other bank with the details you provide to them. The other bank will give a response to that saying match, close match, no match etc. You still...

Speaking from experience from working in the software side of banking for many years, this isn’t correct. Banks don’t have recipient details, it’s up to the account holder to provide the beneficiary details. Even if the destination account is with the same bank, they can’t just go and check...

Definitely contact Tesla. Sounds like you may have an IBAN number which is used for payments originating outside of the UK banking network. Although the sort code and account number will be mixed in there, there’s no telling if it’s actually a GBP account and not a foreign currency account. That...

Yeah I see the point and don’t fully disagree. But for me personally, the tax benefit resulting in the lower end cost to me, along with the overall convenience works well.

But how is that (operationally) different to any other successful business model in the world? I fully agree with you by the way. But to the end user price, it’s beneficial as well as allowing the lease company to be a profitable business which is how it should be in my opinion.

Yeah but mistake has got RWD whereas I have LR. And mistake’s 500 is net, my 1150 is gross. For direct comparison, my NET actually works out to be just under £700 PM.

I agree! As BIK rates climb in coming years, there may come a point where it’s no longer actually a benefit of using salary sacrifice for a car. I’m with you in that being a good deal as I think mine is too. I was going to order directly from Tesla anyway and then having to sort insurance etc...

I don’t think it is. Taking the same terms (PCH 4 year, 10K miles, no deposit) with Tesla direct would be £735 a month. Slap on insurance and you’re at £800 PM which straight away is more that my net deduction?

Following on from this. From my RN, Tesla chat have given me an EDD 28-31 March. Would anybody suggest this will be made sooner? Od does that time in right with one of the expected ships?

Afternoon All Posting here to join the queue. MYLR (19", Blue, Black interior) order placed yesterday via salary sacrifice provider. I've had an email this morning to set up my Tesla account. Now eagerly waiting for a text with my EDD. Really hoping it's in March as my previous car went back...

Hi All As I'd said previously, finally got my YLR ordered and updating here with costs in case it's any use to anybody in the future! £1150 pm Gross Model Y LR Metallic Blue 19” wheels Black interior. Insurance for me and partner Maintenance Tyres Windscreen 4 year & 10k miles The order...

Did you go for 19’s or 20’s on the wheels?

At that mileage it’s a £539 a month driveway ornament!

Yeah I've seen that. I've just assumed that it's due to the fact that the lease company gets the car back at the end of the agreement. If they charged the full amount over the 3 years I'd take them off before it went back 😂
