Ather One and Subscriptions

@rajeshkav, from the second year, can we not pay the difference for Ather one and get the electricity bill re-imbursed ?

Thank you Rajesh and Raghav. I will look it up further.

As I know, Ather Service Plan and Autovert’s Maintenance Plan are totally independent. Hence question of paying the difference does not come into picture.

@Ather.Team this would be amazing if it could be done, also bifurcation of units for it being charged on the grid, home charger and the portable charger.

Whatever electricity bill reimbursement done is without tax amount… last time they have done with tax amount… Ather trying to save some money?

@Ather.Team & @Shreyas,

Isn’t the quarterly reimbursement for Ather ONE subscribers due this month. Ather generally makes the transfer exactly on the 5th on the month. Though 5th was a bank working day I haven’t received the refund.
Anyone else who have received the refund ?

Thanks !!

There is a delay I guess.

Reimbursement of Charging has arrived, but i noticed that it was back to the old rate of 6.5 !
i wonder if the BESCOM charges too have dropped back or is it just a miss in the calculation applied by Ather for this quarter?
Have anyone noticed this or are aware of changes that i might have missed?

There was no communication of change in the reimbursement charges from Ather, so not a miss and BESCOM has definitely not reduced charges.

Yes, they are still reimbursing under the old rate of 6.5. I am now even crossing the 6.75 slab and am in the 7.8 slab as I charge my Ather at home only. I don’t have much hopes of getting reimbursed at 7.8 but we need to atleast to be reimbursed at Rs 6.75. While the amount may be small for each user, @Ather.Team will be saving atleast a lakh+ every year due to this discrepancy.

I don’t think there is a discrepancy here, it has already been stated by Ather that reimbursements are flat at the rate of Rs. 6.5/unit and not at the slab that the customer incurs the charges at. It was clarified elsewhere on the forum and also in person during the owners meet.

Yes but the question is from where did they arrive at Rs 6.5? It’s from the BESCOM tariff rate right. Hence, since the rate was revised from Rs 6.5 to Rs 6.75, it’s only fair that they revise the reimbursement rate too.

I’m not sure how they fixed the tariff slab, but they did clarify that it won’t be revised.

So on the website it says Ather Service is free till Dec '19 for a purchase is being made this year. But the DOT is also given on offer. So for home charging I still have to subscribe to Ather One paying 8400 or will it be just an extra amount to be paid from Ather Service ?

We are almost at the anniversary of the first Ather scooter being released. So would like to ask if anyone knows if Ather, is going to enable an option in the APP/Website for renewing Ather ONE plan. Also I would like to know from others, who have not taken the lease, what are they opting for in the second year.

Maybe this question is too early for most of us,since regular deliveries only started in 2019. I personally received the bike in Feb this year. But curious to know what others could be subscribing to in the 2nd year. I will mostly opt for either Ather service or Ather connect plan.

You just have to call support and ask them to renew the plan. They will send a payment link so you can pay the subscription amount.

I guess a couple of 450 owners might have renewed it…

“In Chennai, the reimbursement amount will be @4.6 Rs/Unit of power consumed.” Why can this not be the same for all Ather 450 customers who are eligible for this reimbursement?

Rate slabs are different for different discoms.
