I just want to let potential buyers know that Polestar's customer service is absolute dogsh**!
The support experience does not match the pre-sales service...

Online chat is not helpful. The are rude and cut you off.
Phone support is not helpful either. The just refer you to online contact forms.
Contact forms don't lead to a response.
When you ask why you're not getting a response, you're greeted with annoyed and rude employees.

+1 for Tesla
-1 for Polestar

Yes I agree that is not good and must be so frustrating. I'd probably wouldn't want that upgrade anymore in your situations as the experience has taken the shine of something that was unnecessary in the first place. Impulse buy should be nice and easy and quick...
Wasn't an impulse buy though. I knew I wanted that upgrade since I found out it existed.
You don't NEED 406hp either ;)

But in the age of over the air updates, you don't expect to have to wait 2+ months for it to arrive because it's just a software update. I'm going to compare PS to Tesla again.... If I had an issue with the model 3, they always had time for me within a matter of days. Not months.

To me it just comes across as a typical company that values presales over support. Pay €1000 for a software update. And when it doesn’t get delivered, no one seems to care or know what to do and it will take 2 months before someone will even look at it. And when they finally do, I have 0 faith that it will actually get sorted right away. All the Volvo dealers I called didn’t even know what the performance update was. Let alone know how to fix it.

The saga continues.
Polestar tells me to make an appointment at a service centre to have it installed. But not a single Volvo dealer has time for me for at least 6 weeks.
I Think I'll just revoke my purchase and tell them to go ** them**** :rolleyes:;)
