Model 3 Delivery Appointment

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
Finally received a text/email from Tesla a couple of days back confirming a delivery for 6 Sep (West Drayton) with a pickup time that doesn't really suit me.

The text says I can reply NO and they will provide an alternative delivery date.

Will they just provide another random collection date/time?

As much as I'm excited by the prospect of owning a shiny new M3 the world does not revolve around Tesla. Is there any way of being able to speak to an actual human being and agreeing a mutually convenient pick-up time?

FYI, I replied back to the delivery email ([email protected]) requesting a later pickup time and got back this automatic reply which may be useful to some of you:

From my experience with this a few weeks ago, they will reallocate your car to another thus moving your delivery day. I was due to pick up 7th Aug, but couldn't make that so they re allocated me a new VIN and now picking up 24th Aug. They didn't give me a choice over the new date.

Hmm I hope that isn't the case! I replied to the text and email, heard nothing, phoned this morning and gave them a date that I wanted and was told "that shouldn't be a problem" but my account still has the old date on it.
 
Hi, what phone number did you call? I was scheduled to pick up my M3 on Wednesday but I never received an updated invoice with the correct details, and so couldn't pay for it or insure it. When I go on the app my car is there but I have emailed, texted and phoned and can't get anyone to respond. Any advice?
