Manic Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 I think a similar thread has been posted, nevertheless, having seen someone order some plates from http://www.fancyplates.com a company based in Ireland I myself ordered some plates to be made for me and the mrs. Constructed them on the site, put in my specific measurements etc and placed the order Monday night, Wednesday morning they arrive at my workplace all done and dusted. Pretty quick service considering they wouldnt have received the order till Tuesday. Top service in my books. Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chazuk Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 I ordered mine on a monday morning and they were on my door-step tue :) The old bill did love them though as they dont have a uk standard mark so that was a nice £30 smack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manic Posted September 17, 2004 Author Share Posted September 17, 2004 Thats the thing, you can order official standard UK plates, but most people including me wanted "fancy" plates. Fingers crossed:innocent: Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terribleturner Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Just like to bring this up again. It's now 2 weeks yesterday that i orderd my plates and nothing. I emailed them and still no reply. I go on line today to find a telephone number and see they are taking no more orders for a week while they clear the back log. Now am i asking too much for a simple email to apoligies for the delay and to say it'll be done asap?? I've got a good mind to cancel my order right now, not happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 imagine if they have a lot of people like yourself emailing them. I have to answer some emails at work like yours it can take me a day or 2 sometimes. What would you rather..... have 2 days spent answering emails or 2 days working on plates and maybe getting yours done? have faith if they aint got it done with 28 days then go nuts at them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARTIN R Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Still waiting for mine, ordered last tuesday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 have faith if they aint got it done with 28 days then go nuts at them Yeah, i hear what your saying. Their website reckons they'll have it cleared by Saturday. So i'll give them e week today before they get a phone call. I just don't understand why they take the work on if they can't actually do it. Plus they same 3-5 days. They should ammend it so as people can go else where if they need to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Got my rear plate last week, took 6 weeks. It was a large plate for the rear, 535 x 175. After 3 weeks I sent 3 emails to 2 addresses which they ignored, I rang them up and they said they were waiting for the large size plastic base which would arrive the following week when I should get the plate. It finally arrived 3 weeks after this. Needless to say I won't be using them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terribleturner Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I actually got a plate for my bike from a place in N.Ireland which took 4 days. New i should have used them again. Can't find their address now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 On their website: All outstanding orders will be delivered on or before Saturday 6th August 2005. Hope you get them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crimbo Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 The IRA no longer require funding for terror activities......and irish firm FancyPlates can no longer be assed to make plates.............. No but seriously, when i ordred mine, a couple of years ago, they took 3-weeks to arrive. Worth the wait tho'..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Well i don't know what to say. 16 days after the order was placed and a day after bringing it up on here and the plates come through. I do think they need to readdress their statment of delivery in 3-5 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
