Tesla Roadster deposit refund bid: Another victim joins the chorus.
A $50,000 Tesla Roadster deposit has been refused by Elon Musk's team. Sam Altman, a prominent figure in the tech industry, recently discovered he would have to wait years before getting his money back.
This incident is not an isolated case - there are many who have paid large sums of money for a vehicle that may never be built. In 2017, Elon Musk declared that Tesla's Roadster would go from zero to 60mph in just three seconds and achieve "cold gas thrusters." The $200,000 electric car was met with skepticism at the time.
In recent years, several other companies have launched their own hypercars, but none of them are related to the Roadster. It appears that some people have become tired of waiting for Tesla and are now seeking refunds for their deposits.
Sam Altman's experience is a prime example of this phenomenon. After placing an order for a Roadster in 2018 with a $45,000 deposit, he discovered that the pre-order email address had been deleted when trying to request a refund. The situation highlights the challenges faced by customers who paid large sums of money for a product that has yet to be delivered.
It is clear that Tesla's handling of its Roadster project has left many disappointed and frustrated. As more people try to get their money back, it remains to be seen whether Elon Musk's team will eventually offer refunds or provide an alternative solution for those who have been affected by the delays.

Tesla is just being super vague on when they're gonna deliver and it's affecting people's lives. Sam Altman's situation is just ridiculous - can't they even find that email address to process a refund? I know I was hyped about the Roadster back in 2017 but now I'm just waiting for my money back like everyone else 
. Until then, I'm staying skeptical about any new product that comes out of Tesla...
- I mean, come on, $50k is a pretty penny just for a chance at owning one of these supercars? I'm like, "Elon, dude, get your priorities straight!" 
And it's not like Tesla hasn't given us any updates on the Roadster. I swear, they're like the ultimate tease - "it'll be worth the wait" and then nothing happens for years. Meanwhile, other companies are over here like, "oh, we've got a real car that you can buy today." 
i'm not surprised ppl r gettin refunds or wanting out tho - patience isnt evry1s superpower 
. gotta wonder wut's goin on behind the scenes @ tesla...anyway, hoping they sort this mess out soon 
. I mean, come on Elon Musk, you hyped up this car for years and now people are getting cold feet 
. It's like you took their money and ran... or should I say, put it towards the next big project 
. No one wants to wait years for a refund, that's just not cool 
.
I mean, come on guys! You know how long Tesla has been playing with our money? Like, years already and we're still waiting... 
At this point, a refund or something would be a good start...
