Ontario EV rebate wait times are increasing, take action

[Mikep00]

I had a productive conversation with a manager administering the program.

Doug Ford has gutted their resources to process the rebates: they have 4 people (total, management included) to process all of the rebates.

Just to mid-June there is a backlog of 3,500 rebates, but once the final numbers come in probably closer to double that.

I have been told ‘best case’ the team can process 25/day but usually 15 on average.

Do the math and see just how long the delays are becoming!!! I’ve waited 5 months and am looking at possibly 6 months more.

I posted a tweet to try and make the issue more public. Please consider retweeting to motivate Doug Ford to put this issue to bed, process the rebates, and move on.

That’s some high level incompetence or diliberate obstruction if it takes over an hour to process a rebate. 10 minutes seems reasonable.

6 rebates per hour x 7 hours x 3 employees = 126 rebates per day. Or 23,000 rebates every six months.
