Was it a shock that you were getting a top off? Did they tell you another payment was paid to previous seller and they were wrong?

I owned a 2010 VW Touareg 3.0 TDI that I sold back to VW in June of 2017. Yesterday(3/13/2018) I received an email from claims_noreply@vwgoa.com stating that I am eligible for additional compensation under the 3.0-liter class action settlement and will be receiving a "top-off" payment in the amount of $4875.87. Is this for real???

I had 50% restitution on 3 Q7s. Last time I called was several months ago and they said "you might get it some day" so I was honestly not expecting anything. So this was a nice surprise.

Yup absolutely for real. When you did your buyback, you did not get full restitution payment and there was a note on the bottom stating that you might get Top Off payment if other claim ends up being invalid.

I knew from the get go that I was supposed to get the other 50%. They erroneously told me that there was a 2nd claim open against the VIN when there wasn't and I couldn't get them to change the offer letter so I turned in anyway. Just didn't expect the top-up to take 7 months.

I had been in contact with class counsel over this the last month or so and they were able to provide more information on the timing than I could get out of VW/hotline.

My now only question is HOW I'll get the payment. As a business buyback, I had to submit additional paperwork for every payment. They haven't sent a request for it yet. If I don't see the money within a week, will have to start fighting them again.

Can someone please report back once you get the actual payment?
