Waiting for the rain to go away to have a proper look. They say I can report it in the app.

Just to check - it is consistently charging for entire journeys? I've just been texted by Tesla service and they want me to send info + a video. Told them the phone I've got and just assumed it was too short but an iPhone 12 mini is definitely shorter... :/
Genuinely though, I hope they sort it! If it works for someone with a smaller phone then it gives me hope that they can move the coils, or maybe mine's faulty. Such a shame because it's a minor issue in the grand scheme of things!
Yeah deffo all there and I checked they had power going to them when I did the initial checklist - the wireless chargers DO kick on for about 10 secs and then they stop. Luckily I've just gone out and gotten a video of it happening on both sides of the charging pad so hopefully that should be enough info for them to diagnose before the mobile service comes on Friday!
Yes, 25.48p per kwhr with a 17p ish standing charge.
To be honest not much different from our current tariff which is 22p per kwhr and 23p standing charge so won’t feel much difference in terms of our other usage
I didn't watch it that closely, so when it started charging I assumed it worked. Might have stopped after 10 seconds. Will check tomorrow and let you know!
Collected my car from the Leicester Space Centre.
Trade-in only required a signature and handover of keys and documents.
Wireless charger present and working correctly on both sides. USC-C ports all there too.
No panel gaps or paint defects that I could see.
The phone app was up-and-running within 5 minutes and authorised as a key without any hassle. Strangely, it does have my car listed twice. Probably just a glich that should correct itself??
Only issue I had was getting out of there. It's a very tight turn to get out with an awkwardly placed kerb. Must've done a 1000-point turn to get out without kerbing my right back wheel!
All-in-all, delighted!

Bloody hell, that's nuts! I was due to swap from Octopus to Go but my fixed rate til April is 16.8p/kWh ATM so maybe it's better I cancel the process of swapping if they're going to increase my day rate by over 50%

Tesla delivery day today - apparently between 8am -12pm
Have had my VIN and plate for about a month now (BT71 G__)
09:19 - Tesla SMS - your M3 has been updated with a new Reg no (LB71 N__)
10:20 - Heard from the AnyVan driver, there's been a mixup sorry for the delay, he'll be here in 1 hour 20
10:20 - AnyVan SMS - Your driver is on heading your way - includes a tracking link
10:55 - Tesla SMS - your M3 has been updated with a new Reg no (LB71 Z__)
11:04 - According to the AnyVan tracking link the car hasn't moved and is still sitting at Thorpe Park 63 miles away
Maybe they keep losing my car in the car park and having to find another one....or the tracking link they've sent is for the 1st car
I'm not feeling too confident!

Sent the driver a text and the link has is now updating and I can see the driver heading up the M1
I'll believe the actual Reg No when I see it, lol

just collected my car from Thorpe park. I seemed to be the first person there. Process was very smooth. I was a trade in so my old car had a brief inspection and mileage check. The new car was perfect, clean no blemishes , panel gaps were spot on, usb and wireless charging all there and working correctly.
Battery was 44% and used 14% to do 39 miles and the car was spot on with its estimation of destination SoC
Also there were 2 guys from Tesla owners club on hand to help with questions so had a nice chat with them
Car is now at the detailers for bumper and rocker ppf and they commented on how much Tesla build quality has gone up from the early models.
I'll post a picture up post detail tomorrow

I would just do the maths to get a definitive answer first. For me based on 95kwhrs of charging per week it’ll still save me circa £60pm which is significant. However obviously my rate right now is significantly higher than your 16.8p per kwhr.Bloody hell, that's nuts!

It all depends on your individual usage in terms of charging vs day usage. For me i’ll probably take advantage of the lower night rate to do washing/ drying aswell and set it to finish at 4:30am
Maximise the savings!I have a spreadsheet that helps work all this out, might be useful for you. You will find it upthreadI would just do the maths to get a definitive answer first.

Service mode probably covers that - stops sentry too.Ok tip,
if you are leaving your car with others (such as having a detail) you may want to not turn on notifications for doors and windows being left open, my phone keeps pinging
