When can I start using the free 10,000 supercharger miles?

[AtlTesly]

Took delivery of a MY on Dec. 26, 2022. Per the incentive I get 10,000 free supercharger miles which expire in 2 years. Charging at a supercharger 2 days ago, I had to pay.

When does the free supercharging actually start? Or do I need to do something to activate it? In my vehicle details it still says pay as you go.

Thanks.

I’m still not seeing it in my account. Other had mentioned Jan. 6. So maybe I’ll see it in a couple of days.

Piggy backing on this. Anyone know if we can choose to use our 10000 miles credits or pay the going rate. I rather save the free miles charging during peak rate times and pay during off peak lower rates. .

But keep in mind, these 10K can only use 2 years. After that it is gone gone.

Is everyone suggesting to still charge at home even though we have 10,000 SC miles? So we’d preserve battery stress? Use SC only for trips and emergencies?

Yes

Thanks! It's there!

Yes

Based on this it’s not a good idea to visit superchargers frequently even if only to top off. Correct?

What about overall battery health and maintenance? Is there a suggested schedule to cycle fully charge to 100% and drain to near zero, ever?

Can someone clarify with certainty, do the 10k SC miles expire when the car is *driven* 10k miles before 2 years, or is it based on the number of miles added only when actually supercharging?

For example, If I put 11,000 miles on the car in the first year of ownership and never supercharge, can I still supercharge until 10,000 miles of range are added from SC'ing, up until the 2 year mark?

It's based on miles actually added when supercharging. For most people who mostly charge at home this can be looked at as free supercharging for 2 years ( unless one takes a lot of road trips then one will hit the 10 k before 2 years).

Sweet! I got this included but thought I wouldn't get much use out of it due to commuting and home charging. That's great news!

Same here! Glad someone clarified!

has anyone who got the 10,000 mile / 2 year deal in December, used a super charger yet, and can confirm it's free ? I still see the 'Pay as you go' comment on my car, but did see the item in my loot box too. It feels like it should update the car details, as we're not 'pay as you go'. I'll be driving into the mountains Tuesday, so will give it a go then, but just curious if anyone has confirmed it' free. thanks

Yes. I used it for 45 kWh and it charged me for 120 miles from the 10,000.

Yes, I used twice and its free. It shows the cost on charging screen while charging but it will deduct from free miles after charging.

If you look under Loot Box in your Tesla App. You should see the credit.

The supercharging miles will appear in the app sometime this month, Jan 6th I believe.

Does anyone know if I can use these free supercharging miles on my other tesla that is also in the same account?

Yes, I can personally verify that the free miles are on your overall Tesla account and not just tied to the new car. I charged on my older car recently on a short road trip and it deducted from the free SC miles...

Same. I was able to use the free miles on my 2017 Model 3.

What if one charges at a supercharger with time of day variable pricing. Does the number of miles debited from the 10,000 credit vary based on time of day?

It [used to] depends on the "miles added" during supercharging, and it is not related to pricing. In other words, it is not a cash-equivalent allowance.

Can I use my free 10K supercharger credit in the US? I'm based in Canada. Thanks.
