NO MINI CONTINGENCY? 4 months and counting!
Man, its been over 4 months with no check from Mini. They still owe me $1500 for divisional/National wins. I know that Carolyn B is no longer with them and Susan L. has taken her place. I am VERY disappointed with her no replies or very slow replies at best. I was promised around the 1st of this month the check would arrive VERY shortly, but, its now been 17 days and she has not responded to any emails to confirm that the check was sent "shortly" as promised.
I'm really starting to question whether Mini is going to continue the contingency program with this lackluster response to numerous inquiries through email and numerous voicemails regarding contingency payments.
If I don't see a check by the 5 month mark, I'm going to have to re-evaluate my new 2006 MCS order.
I figure the least they could do is let me know what the heck is really going on. I called one of the other National Mini competitors, and, they have given him the same poor response and non-payment.
Don't get me wrong, I appreciate their program, however, they need to maintain it in a semi-professional manner if they are indeed going to offer it. I spend thousands of dollars on car prep and travel, knowing that I have a chance to re-coup some of those expenses through the contingency program, which, I happened to earn with National Wins. And, when they fail to follow through as agreed on their end, it puts a real sour taste in my mouth. I could understand if it was outside the promised 30 days, maybe 60 days, or 100 days with a response back to my emails/calls, but, 140+ days with no response or lackluster response at best? Thats ridiculous. Are they going to wait half a year? A full year? Never? This is really starting to **** me off to be honest.
Anyone else have similar issues?

They still owe me $250 in divisional from quite a while back. They were pretty slow on the Packwood and Denver Money as well, but I recieved that a while ago. What works best with Susan is calling her. She was very responsive to that. What she told me was that she has taken Carolyn's spot, but still performing her old job duties which has her over committed at MiniUSA. Unfortunately, I'm sure paying out money takes lower priority than other duties Susan does there, and until they allow more dedication to the contingency program, things may be a little slow. Like I said, call Susan on the phone and work with her that way. She was very helpful and pleasant when I spoke with her before.

Very iteresting, I called 3 times with no returned calls. I guess I'll try again. Anyway, thanks for your input, thats encouraging that at least someone has gotten through with a good response. I wonder how they'd like it if I told them I was real busy and didn't have time to make my car payments as agreed. :-) You'd think a company as large as BMW/Mini could handle sending out a few dozen contingency checks.

I've spoken with Susan as of a few weeks ago (on the phone) and she was apollogetic and mentioned they were behind. I realized that there isn't much else I can do other than remind them.
However, don't leave messages, just try to call and catch her in the office. Not only did Susan take over for Carolyn, but Susan was only supposed to be temporary as well, as I understand it. They may be currently in the cross over again.
But, you'd think they would want to get it out before the end of the year...
Believe me, I'm owed quite a bit
