I went back to the "main thread" to see how the discovery all unfolded and noticed the large amounts of radio silence from Jason.
Jan 6, 2023 Jason:
"If nothing goes wrong before receiving the BMD, then you activate at that time and your 2 years officially starts from that point. So because of how we're handling it, you effectively, but unofficially, get free coverage in the meantime. Only fair, IMO." Very generous, thank you. I know the Terms got updated after this, but this is what some of us that didn't get a notice of the terms update kept believing. I'm not personally holding you to this, but it would have been nice to know the BMD wasn't required ... and probably wasn't coming.
June 6, 2023: 057 Companies is registered in TN. Allegedly this company purchases 057 Technology's assets. Allegedly 057 Technology continues to operate.
Aug 28, 2023 Jason:
"Lots going on. Some good things, some not great things. Frontline support is stretched thin at the moment and we're just not getting to all calls/emails. Will post an update soon."
Sept 8, 2023 per Julien Reid, this is when 057 Companies (new 057 in TN) went out of business. In his communication with the TN DCA, Reid claims 057 Technology (old 057 in NC) and 057 Companies are completely separate entities. He goes on to say that 057 Comp only bought certain assets, which he claims they no longer have.
Sept 12, 2023 There seems to be a server issue happening at 057 in early September. Couple short, unremarkable updates from Jason. Otherwise, posting as-if business is status quo. (there are a few forum members claiming they have not been able to reach 057 for awhile)
Sept 18, 2023 057 Technology's location is empty and listed on MLS. Still no promised update.
Sept 24, 2023 Jason finally breaks two weeks of silence.
"Lots of work and lots of changes." No mention of the asset purchase, no mention of the repair facility, and implies services are being handled despite claims by forum members.
Oct 25, 2023 NC SOS search turns up that 057 Technology has already been filed as "Administration Dissolved."
Jan 3, 2024 Jason finally admits it for the first time and this must be the update we've been waiting for:
"I sold 100% of 057 Tech early in 2023...and I later left the company in the summer..." Jason goes on to say he's still working with his attorney to make an update. He's still trying to figure this out since summer 2023, I guess? However, Jason continues,
"I've moved on from any regular business work involving Tesla stuff, but I'll continue to contribute where I can as an enthusiast..." I think this is the most important statement of the entire thread. At least I can finally stop feeling guilty for ruining it for everyone else.
Jan 4, 2024 CrankyGypsy enters the chat. I only found out about this due to a post through a group on another website.
Jan 6, 2024 Jason states,
"...It's just not my problem anymore...Have a battery issue? Contact 057 as noted in the service plan terms." Good luck with that, everyone.
Mar 21, 2024 Reid states to the TN DCA,
"We did NOT purchase the 057 Technology Company, and statements by the owner of 057 Technology on a Tesla forum does not change the legal facts. We purchased certain assets of the company, but not the company. Therefor, we do not have any responsibility to previous customers."
Ok
@wk057 , you can continue with the gaslighting again.
I know you said if you ever win the lottery, you'd make sure every subscriber's battery is taken care of. Heck, I'm gonna make the same promise right here and right now:
if I win the lottery, I'll make sure everyone that Jason turned his back on gets taken care of. There is one rule: be sure to post your invoice in this thread for the record. Thank you.
