I recall seeing the free Wall Box promotion earlier this year, but assumed only purchases made after the promo was announced would be eligible for the offer. Previous transactions are typically non-eligible for any promotion from any company. At the end of July I saw a reference to the promo on the MBEQ Club forum. A few forum members reported successfully getting the MB EVSE. A few others were not successful. I suspect that MY 2022 and MY 2024 vehicles may be excluded from the promotion. I don't believe the website accepting the requests for the free charger does complete real time verification. It took several weeks after making the request to receive a FedEx tracking number.

I submitted a request for the free wall box on 30-Jul-2024 using the VIN from my 2023 EQS SUV purchased 29-Oct-2022. The application was accepted, and after several "update" emails from bdainc.com, I received a notification with a FedEx tracking number indicating delivery would be made today, 27-Aug-2024. I will probably keep the MB EVSE in the factory sealed carton and include it with the car if I sell it privately. I was surprised that the request was approved for a car purchased 22 months ago. I believe other EQS/EQE owners who purchased a qualifying car by 30-June-2024 have until 30-Aug-2024 to submit a request for the complimentary charger at:

The offer originally expired at the end of July, 2024 but was extended until 30-Aug-2024.

Although there is already thread on this https://mbworld.org/forums/eqe-suv-x...lbox-free.html but the reminder on the expiry is appreciated.

Sorry about the "duplicate" posting. I rarely visit the EQE forums and missed the MB Wallbox - free thread. Hopefully, someone who thought the offer expired in July gets a chance to submit a request.

All good : )

I just did and it says to expect confirmation in 7-10 days. Purchased my card in December.

It does not work for me... it says 'Please provide a valid VIN'... my care is MY22 but I purchased earlier this year, so not sure if you guys know if they have a cutoff on specific model year or whatnot.

Here's a link to an MBusa page that specifically says the free Wall Box if available to customers who purchase a MY 2023 EQE or EQS (any variant) in the first quarter of 2024. It appears that MB is enforcing the MY 2023 requirement but they seem to be very flexible on the purchase date.

I included an excerpt from the page below, in case this link disappears in the near future.

I guess missed it by one model year Well, Thank you for the clarification then.

Yep, clearly not eligible.....which is more than mildly disappointing, to be honest. They sell for over $900, apparently. Guess I'll stick with my ChargePoint HomeFlex.
