All I can say is I ordered my Plates around 7pm on Thursday 24/09 & they arrived in perfect condition via Evri on Saturday 26/09 at around 3pm, Id call that excellent service and well worth 5Stars 👍

Delayed despatch meant that I had to buy plates elsewhere. Bought at 7am on Friday with express delivery and guaranteed same day dispatch, except they weren't, they were actually sent on Monday PM, too late for the car and now useless.
Note after the vendor replied.
My number plates were standard legal plates, nothing special and really no excuse why it was so late…
Sent an email to the company who then reeled out a whole load of garbage about no guarantees, totally different to the website.
Would not recommend, worst of all is the lack of customer service and fob offs when they cause a delay.

Awful company
Ordered plates which I’ve never received, I’ve sent 3 emails with no response to any of them! Absolutely awful experience. Will have to claim through my credit card company.

If I could have put negative stars I would have. Experience I had was completely negative they took my money and never sent the plates I ordered. They palmed me off with two emails saying the plates had been manufactured and it was the couriers fault, but the courier link with evri they gave me showed they never gave it to them. Other reviews show it’s a scam they take your money and that’s it. I had to raise a case with PayPal to get my money back. AVOID AVOID AVOID

Warning- Don’t use this company
Please, please Do NOT touch this company!!!
They are complete charlatans. Their number plates are illegal.
I’ve tried to call them for a week and they have completely ignored me.
They should be referred to trading standards.
Please don’t use them

Worthless Guarantee
Ordered a set 4D plates 2 years ago and one of the digits has fallen off so I ordered a set of gel plates which have been delivered despite using EVRI as the courier, I then read on the website that all plates come with a 3 year guarantee, however it seems that even though a digit has fallen off manufacturing defects are only covered for the first 12 months, so the next 24 months only guarantee the plates against being noisy or suffering from damp or possibly self combusting, I can't quite think what else could go wrong with a number plate that isn't a manufacturing defect and there customer services don't have an answer either, so buyer beware and look for a supplier that honours the warranty advertised, I for sure won't be back.
The plates I was sent are incorrect and I cannot get hold of anyone to resolve.
The plates I was sent are incorrect. I have emailed, called and left voicemails repeatedly now for 17 days with no response. I checked reviews prior to purchase, clearly I should have gone directly to a retailer to get them done so I could check before purchase but this wasn’t convenient.
This is appalling customer service.

Absolutely useless
This company is joke. Paid fir fast delivery thursday 27th of february and today is 5th of march and was not even dispatched. Waste of time and waste of money. I called them up no answer. Left message no call back. Sent lot of mails no answer. Do yourself a faver and choose someone else. Useless

Won’t be using again
Won’t be using again. Express delivery was 5 days and questioning this just resulted in a hyperlink to Evri tracking. Which I had anyway.
This company don’t give a s*** and I can see why. Do yourself a favour and use another company. Waste of space!

Tried several time to contact them via email and voicemail for an invoice and no reply. Why aren't you sending an invoice automatically? Should have really read the reviews before placing an order.
It's now 5th March and I've still not heard back from them. Avoid! Avoid! Avoid!
23.04.2025 update - an invoice was not sent automatically and it's taken them over a month to reply to this review! Shocking!

Multiple emails and voicemails left regarding an order a simple request such as an Invoice to be emailed and have been completely ignored for 2 weeks now.
Calling any number or option for this business just goes to voicemail.
Buyer Beware.
