Oh man, this stinks. I called twice today to help my parents reset the DL but no luck. At least they only paid the order fee. Anyone have any luck with resetting it?

I mean, I just bought a model X LR reservation from someone and picked it up on Monday. Just changed the name, transferred the account to me, and everything was okay. I'm not sure what the big hub bub about this is, but it completely worked out fine for me. I flew down to Oakland, picked up in Dublin, and drove back up to Portland area all in the same day. It worked just fine.
What's a different account and parent account? This is the first time I am hearing this terminology for Tesla accounts. Can you elaborate/explan the scenario you are describing?If you have full account control (and all names/addresses are yours) along with the registration change... the likelihood of delivery center rejection seems minimal.
It's when an order is still under a different Tesla account where the registration data mismatches from the parent Tesla account.... seems to bring the most problems.

There's a trick to updating the OA. So, after the account has been updated to the buyer (profile settings), then use the Edit Design link. Make any tweak like color. This will generate a new OA based on the info in the profile settings. Once you've done this, no remnants of the original RN owner will be visible, except of course whatever logging Tesla has on their end. Then tweak the order back to whatever you like - this may affect delivery date.I mean the order registration (name, address, phone) has different info than the Tesla account info (name, address, phone). Also, the order agreement could have completely different info (again name, address, phone) than those two. That is the person who paid for the order with the credit card.
That would affect price too though, not only delivery date. Most of the benefit of reservation transfer is the lower cost of the original reservation.There's a trick to updating the OA.

Nope, due to Tesla's recent policy change, Edit Designs are based on original pricing at the time of the original RN. Anecdotally, I've helped many folks with this process and it's worked fine, including delivery. I am thinking of setting up a consulting service, lol.That would affect price too though, not only delivery date.

Yes, as long as the seller:So what is the consensus? If I want to buy a reservation from someone could they give me their tesla acc and I change the registrant and account info to my name?
Do you mind messaging me? Just want to confirm some stuff and I can't message youYes, as long as the seller:
1. is willing to give up their account to you
2. has not entered any info, including DL, registration, and financing
3. and no VIN assigned yet
Another thing. When you do the account/email switch, the buyer's email should not have ever been used with Tesla, otherwise, it won't work.
If you want more help, message me or aka RN Services, LLC. lol
2. has not entered any info, including DL, registration, and financing
Yes, this one is a goner. No SA will reset the DL section anymore for the RN buyer to enter accordingly. I mean, there could be an SA willing to override it, but it's not allowed. What this really means, in my opinion, is that the RN seller most likely pursued the order with the intent to sell. Most folks enter their DL info right away.Ok, so...if they have uploaded a DL and selected cash...that means this will not work anymore because the first DL info is then always tied with the reservation?

If it's not confidential, ask here. Maybe it will be helpful to others.Do you mind messaging me? Just want to confirm some stuff and I can't message you
There's nothing risky about them at all. Tesla has always supported it officially. I've helped two people VIN transfer successfully with full support of SAs.*Vin transfers are risky, dont attempt eg dont try to get Tesla to match the vin to your reservation
