Any new owners received their cashback yet?

Curious as to whether the dealer hands over a cheque at the time of delivery, or whether one has to wait for Seat to send it through.

I took up the offer of the finance plan with the £1000 cashback and 3 years free servicing, I've already got a high street loan and am intending to pay off the finance in the first month, trouble is I need the £1000 to settle the finance.

All the best

It won't be until after you've taken delivery, I'd guess not for a month after the finance agreement takes effect

I thought the £1000 was towards the finance i.e. part of the deposit? Can't say I read it very carefully though, the agreement was a jumble of figures!

Yeah, you never see the £1000, it's paper money. You just pay 1k less if you take the finance.

£1000 is a new figure to me as I've got £1240 finance contribution from the outset?

That's the dealer adding their finance 'kickback' into the deal, cause I'm guessing you bought through DtD?

It's not cashback, it's a contribution to the finance. You just end up with a loan that's £1000 less than it would have been.

Ah, thanks for that.

12 week delivery I was quoted by the dealer, ordered on the 15th March meaning I won't see the car till the middle of June. Rather hoping he was quoting worst case delivery and it'll be here before then.

All the best
