It's got to be true. I tried to persuade the sales associate to take the payment right after order and he said there was no way.

My SA talked me into completing my registration because he said too many people make a mistake and then get delayed. I agree with others, Tesla IT needs to send an error message until you complete your payment method and xx you will not be in the queue for a Tesla vehicle. Some aspects of the buying experience should be improved.
They sent me one.. it's weird that they don't uniformly send it to EVERYONE who didn't fill it out. Bizarre.

I have actually gotten no emails from Tesla. Validate my email, it was correct. Even hit the forgot password link and got reset password so know it’s right, but still no Tesla emails, not even when profile was not complete

Wow this info is counter to what Tesla SA just did to me. I was set on cash payment even though I was financing because their system didn’t allow me to fill in my bank info. This was the advice I read. The original SA said they’d get the info later when my delivery was closer. I happened to be chatting with a Tesla SA last week and mentioned I had a bank loan approved. The person said oh let me get the info since you are set to cash payment. She asked what bank I was using and amount financed. SA said if the loan expires and I use the same bank for a new loan then no need to update Tesla. My loan expires tomorrow. Now this info except for bank name appears in the Tesla app.
Wait a sec.
From what I read on the site the insurance card has to show the VIN number - as in its got to be the insurance for the car itself.
I can't do that until I have the VIN, which I don't have.
Are you saying to upload our current insurance for the car we are driving today?

In some states, current car's insurance is good enough. There was a link in the car's insurance section about this. "Your Tesla VIN must be listed on your policy in all but these states."..

Unless you are waiting for an MYP, it is best to list cash in your payment method and as soon as you get your VIN call your SA have them change to finance. An expired loan document may take you out of your position in the queue and treat you as if you just made a new booking on the day your loan lapsed.

Woo-hoo! Got the text to schedule delivery. Nov 24 in Bloomington, IL. Now to initiate the wire transfer and get an insurance card to upload.

let me know how your wire transfer went. I suppose you will pay a couple of days prior to 24th November? Please share if it was easy to dig the wire transfer information of Tesla. I decided to use the wire transfer route, rather than give Plaid Inc., my log in details to my main salary account. I don't even know who owns that business. In 2020, Visa tried to buy it, but could not pass the regulatory test for reduction in competition.

I just went from 12/18-1/7 to BLANK a little while ago. I am guessing it is more widespread than just a few of us.

Not that I would wish it on anyone else but I was hoping I wasn’t alone in going dark. Thanks for replying.

I'll post here once it goes through but it was easy from Ally Bank. The wire transfer info is on the last page of your MVPA.
UPDATE: Ally just called to verify the transfer as a security precaution, which I think is a good idea.
