Did anyone upgrade from 48 to 72 Amps?

I had 80 with my S and was surprised to only get 72 with the X. I got my X home the first night and it only charged at 48. I called Tesla and they enabled the higher charge capability over the air. That was back in Jan “16 and mine was one of the early ones manufactured in Dec “15.
In order to get the 80 on my S, I had to upgrade my service and use a 100 amp fuse due to local codes.
