Urgent. Mercedes pull ahead for onepay

[zzlovezt]

Hello,

Iam in the dealership now for a lease and need to use the pull ahead program to refund 5 months of my eqs one pay lease. The manger in the dealership said he just called mbfs and said mbfs is not going to refund one pay lease. Anyone has any suggestion on this? I do see some success in this forum on one pay lease pull ahead. How should I negotiate on this? Is there any specific term i need to mention to them?

Thank you so much!

The Benz lease accelerator and lease payment waiver programs will not result in a one-pay lease getting a pro-rated refund.

When you did the one-pay you became committed to taking the lease to term. You might as well just keep your one-pay to maturity and sign a new lease using loyalty incentives.

The only way you’re getting a pro-rated refund would be if you totaled the car.

So theoretically my m…

Just an update, they are willing to send the form to mbfs and let them process. So no grantee about the refund, but we can make the deal and let the mbfs decide the refund.

Thanks!

that means you take the risk and the dealer wins assume you are not getting it

My understanding is that it is a normal process that mbfs need to process the refund not the dealer, as mentioned in the other post in the forum. But I agree there is some risk here. Thank you!
