Hi there, I'm new to the forum and am just looking for a bit of advice.
I was toying with the idea of getting a Model S as a company car a few years back – I took a test drive and loved the car, but unfortunately circumstances changed a little and I eventually ended up buying a BMW hybrid.
However, those circumstances have shifted again and I'm now in a situation where I'm very seriously considering ordering a P100D, so I've been looking at all the latest reviews and so on. So far so good, but one thing that originally drew me to the Telsa was the lifetime free supercharger use. I do a lot of miles (25k+ annually) and won't always be able to charge at home, so that was a really major attraction for me. But I now see that the offer ended last year.
Over the last few days though I've heard that lifetime free supercharging is still available but via a referral scheme. So I was wondering if it's really just a matter of taking one of the many codes I now see are available on the internet and passing that onto Tesla? Or is the referral supposed to come from somebody I know personally or who I can at least prove I've had some advice from? I'm assuming also that it'd have to come from a UK based owner at the very least? Or are Telsa not really that interested in the details and more concerned with just making the sale? I did notice that on the Tesla site it uses the word 'friends'.
Apologies for what I'm guessing might be a very naive question, but for me this might make all the difference! Thanks in advance!
