Man, you guys are harsh.
OP is venting and frustrated.
OP expected things to go the way the original documentation said it should go. If they'd read the forums here (which not everybody has time to do, and "search" feature CAN be confusing if you're not used to these types of forums), they would have known that things are NOT in fact going as expected.
OP, sorry for the problems you're having. Venting is fine, as long as it's presented as just venting. Once done venting, though, start focusing on possible solutions. There are things you can control, and things you can't control. Read over these forums and learn what they are.
And for those of you thinking that "check in hand" is the way to go, I would like to present a few posts on the forums where:
a) A person was given the "wrong check" from VW which then BOUNCED. What a nightmare!
b) Check delivery to the dealerships was delayed due to weather, holidays, electromagnetic pulse from the Sun...
Given the information currently available, the OP should contact Class Counsel about the problems, and should probably just go with EFT and overestimate.
Good luck, and take deep breaths.
SERENITY NOW. hehe
