I just spoke with CS. Rivian needed to create a different letter for those that were refunded the $1000 and never charged back after reinstating. The $1000 must be charged again with the same stipulation that $100 is non-refundable as with other deposit holders.
By the way Rivian still claims I have a pre order but they decided to not recharge the deposit after I cancelled and then reinstated when they made good on original pricing.
Iāve never received this notification. Perhaps itās because I withdrew my order when RJ jacked the price and they never charged back the $1000 deposit. Maybe those of us that bailed on the price increase need will never see a Rivian in our driveway.
You make a valid point. This is why we have a forum. Keeps everyone in ācheckā. The rescind from RJ was fairly swift. I was doubting a āBoardā would have responded that swiftly. And, having RJ step down or removed from Rivian would kill the company. I personally have heard ā0ā from Rivian after...
Yeah I gave that a try yesterday at 5:00 Eastern Time and itās a bit premature to expect a response since the Thursday announcement. Just wondering if there are posts that this is really happening. Since Rivian is now post IPO my second concern is RJās future as CEO after this debacle. Can/would...
The letter to preorder holders from RJ is sincere. And, RJ DID THE RIGHT THING! Letās hope the Board of Directors allows him to make good. Iām not sure how this will all work out since I cancelled within minutes of notification and the preorder is wiped out from my account. How do they fix that...
Companies blame everything but themselves. First itās Covid (blame the Chinese). Then itās supply chain (due to Covid). Then itās inflation (blame our federal government). Hey RJ! Blame the Russian war on Ukraine because thatās the next flavor of excuses. How about āWE at Rivian Screwed up but...
IMHO, No comparison between RJ and Elon. I just canāt imagine driving that Cyber Truck or looking at it in my driveway. Just my preference. Cyber Truck is like DeLorean on crack.
Good insight into Amazon van production as the posting does not differentiate what the āstampersā will be stamping. Iād like to believe theyāre stamping my R1S right now.
