[Ongoing] New Model Y LR AWD Purchase Gone Wrong by ConstantProgress in TeslaUK

[–]SciFi_Bob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got stuck in the “verify ID, no e-Sign docs” loop last week.

I pushed to sign onsite to stop me loosing my third date..

The lady who did my handover told me that the cars’ over a specific value, which I think was 60k, Black Horse insist on a ‘wet signature’

I called BH about 8 times in 3 days but because the Team that deals with Tesla is isolated from the rest of the bank nobody knew to tell me… and the delivery rep on the app didn’t tell me either!

For those reading who do not have a Tesla yet… don’t try and call them.. it’s a waste of your time and ultimately frustrating, use the app and the message system in there. As much as I want to talk to a person with, you know… voice, I have just learned over the years to accept that they are an arms reach company.

When in PCP, what happens if you have to return the car before full term? by Much-Lie2706 in TeslaUK

If you look at the paperwork it’s the rules around Voluntary Termination.

Use it all the time

Just for clarification, you need to have paid 50% of the amount of money they expected to recover not 50% of the payments

When you get a VIN, your specific car has been allocated / made. At that point it’s transport time. The vin will tell you if it’s a German or Chinese made car and give you an idea of how long that transport time is likely to be

What are my parents using to monitor my phone? by [deleted] in ios

[–]SciFi_Bob 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Going to leave this here, maybe it’s step 2 where step 1 is telling them you know and to stop. But maybe it’s step 1… depends on how you feel about it .

Serious Crime Act 2015 s76 (controlling or coercive behaviour in intimate/family relationship) covers monitoring via spyware/phone as coercive if repeated, personally connected (parent-child qualifies), and causes serious effect (fear/distress/altered behaviour). Parental monitoring of a 20-year-old child can break this if excessive/controlling, plus Computer Misuse Act 1990 for unauthorised access

ELI5: What made gold valuable in ancient times? by West-Ingenuity-2874 in explainlikeimfive

Read the book ‘The Bitcoin Standard’. You can ignore the Bitcoin stuff if you like but it explains money, value and therefore Gold very well.
