On November 1 I responded to this email "Redeem your Model S for Kids or Signature Black Wall Connector". The email said I would receive redemption instructions.

So far, nothing.

I really wanted to surprise the grandkids with a Model S for Kids for Christmas, since they love my Model X. Is this kind of delay normal for referral loot?
 
Farmerdave- how long after your referral took delivery was it before you received the email? It's been almost a month and I hadn't even got the email yet. No response from referral team email address either.
 
Tesla hands off the mini-model-s delivery to RadioFlyer.com. Check your spam emails. From my first Email from RadioFlyer to delivery was just over 2 months. I think they batch up the deliveries, because the courier told me he had 4 such boxes to delivery in my area. YMMV

Over six weeks from referral delivery to receipt of the award email form Tesla. Imagine the wait if they used snail mail!;)
 
My referral code was submitted to radioflyer early October and was told by their representative that next delivery which inlcudes myself will happen early December.
 
I received my redemption code in early August and sent it back right away and the mini Tesla S arrived in late October so nearly 3 months later.

I never got that email, but I got the email directly with the redemption code. It was another 4 weeks before the Model S for kids showed up.
 
It took me almost 2 months to get my Tesla for Kids referral code link after getting the initial email. My 2nd referral took delivery about 2 months ago, haven't heard anything. 3rd last week, still nothing.
 
Good news! I just received the code today and ordered a red one, as Radio Flyer says that color will be delivered by December 22. It will indeed be a Merry Christmas for Laurel and Jordan.

I also received a separate explanation/apology email from Tesla today explaining that they are "currently transitioning our Referral Reward emails to a new system to support the recent update to our reward offerings."
