Model 3 Reservation Numbers Appearing in My Tesla

[Rla]

Numbers do not seem to carry any information other than that they all seem to be 107* or 108*
No store correlation, no region correlation nothing. Having an IT background I assume they currently have 2 servers operating, one dishing out 107 numbers the other 108 numbers. Its a common practice to enable servers to handle high loads (like concert ticketing systems, etc.)

You just capture the info from the user, assign a unique number and store it somewhere (like high-througput queue system). Then other backend systems can process these reservations (in their own time) into actual reservations that hook up into your MyTesla account.

So you're suggesting that I'm not in danger of losing my spot, having placed my reservation at 10:01 AM PST but as of yet having received no email and seen no RN in my account?

I reserved at ~10.30am EST near Philly. I am not a current owner, but I did set up a mytesla.com account a few days ago. I have not received a confirmation email, but my res # does appear in my mytesla.com account.

Did it show up in your account immediately or did it take time?

I didn't check until about 30 minutes ago, so I can't say for sure.

When I placed my order in person at the West Palm Beach SC this morning, they told me I would receive an email within 1-2 days, if I recall correctly. That was around 11 AM EDT, and I haven't received an email yet.

Just as a data point, I reserved at 10:20EST, and when I first logged into my bank a pending charge was there at 12:00pm. And when I first checked MyTesla I had an RN, which was just at 1:30pm. So I can't say how long it took but it was within a few hours. No email yet.

I was nr 4 in the Belgian - Antwerp (Aartselaar) and was done by 10:04 and only received the mail at 10:09.

I'm taking the liberty in guessing that everyone that ordered today is in 'a bucket' and the sequence in the store will not matter that much.
(I was early because I left home as I always do, went to the store, waited, reserved and went to work)

Also remember that they will first serve the US, then EU, then Asia ... and they have said that even when you get to 'order' the delivery will be based on their production schedule. So most likely full option orders will be served first (highest margin for them) and I would also think that they would then look at the numbers to optimize the production capability before looking at the reservation numbers.

btw: it's all still a long wait, no reason to get to bothered about it too much. Read some of the early Model S and Model X posts about waiting for orders and delivery, there was a lot of frustration. Expect the same.

Nothing on MyTesla... but I have a hold on my CC

 

[jbcarioca]

I reserved at 10:00 Eastern and have received an email; the order also is already reflected in MyTesla

 

[cdub]

Don't see mine yet. I hope they entered my e-mail correctly!

 

[pmich80]

Mine started with 109. In Toronto.

 

[Rla]

Yeah, first 109, they added another server...(elastic cloud scale)

I reserved in Burbank, CA about 30 minutes ago. The charge hit my credit card, but I, too, have yet to receive an email and can't see anything in My Tesla account.

Anyone else have/having this issue? Did it eventually show up?

I am in the exact same boat. Reserved 10:04am PT, got a credit card charge, but nothing in email or My Tesla yet. I'm trying to convince myself that the CC charge means it's all gonna be OK, but I'm paranoid that something went wrong.

I think we will get a rounded number of reservations from Elon tonight. From what I'm seeing, there is no way to tell from reservation numbers how many reservations are occurring.

I think 100K+ in 24 hours is going to happen.

Also same here, keep checking my tesla and my e-mail with obsession and nothing yet.
