Referral Miles Expiring

[spooksman]

I purchased 3,000 Supercharger miles with some referral credits a while back, and I still have about 1,500 remaining. However, it looks like these expire in late February 2024 (they are only valid 6 months), band I’m sure I read on here somewhere (can’t find it) that you can ’extend’ the expiration date by buying a few more miles with more referral credits.

So if I add 300 more miles (for 1,500 credits), will that extend the expiry date on *all* the miles for that 6 months?

Any advice or knowledge would be appreciated.

Free supercharger miles expiration?

I thought that free supercharger miles earned by using a referral link when purchasing your Tesla expired after 12 months? However, I bought my car early September 2020 and noticed today that the "Loot" box in the Android app no longer shows any mention of miles (or kWh) remaining. I can see...

Thanks @init6, that’s helpful - that all appears to be related to additional referrals rather ‘purchasing’ with credits, but maybe that’s actually the same thing. I'm pretty sure that if I add another 300 in early Feb, all of the miles will extend for 6 months, which means I might be able to use them up!

Oh, and I clearly need to improve my search skills!

I use a little know web site.

Please update this thread - or the other when you do. I'm sure others will be interested.

Not sure if they've updated the web page, but this seems to answer your question:

If you redeem credits for additional Supercharging miles, the expiration date for all of your Supercharging miles will be extended by 6 months, up to 36 months.

Exactly what I was looking for - thanks so much!

I will report back when I redeem more in February, but that seems pretty clear.

Happy New Year!

So did they get extended?

 

[spooksman]

Sorry, my bad, I didn’t report back…

Yes, I spent a few more referral points, and all the miles got extended - many thanks.

Every redemption adds 6 months to the end date of all unexpired miles, up to a maximum of 3 years from the date of purchase. So if yiu’ve any points about to expire, you can always use them to top up and extend the date, it’s probably the only useful thing about the 300 mile purchase

Similarly the expiry of referral points extends to 12 months from the day the last lot were credited.
