Our Recorded Signed for service is 2 days. With recent strikes and delays we do not want to offer and charge for a next day as we would not want to promise this when as a company we rely on third parties to ship.

Will the BS legal details appear on my plates?
If you design your plate to legal format then the BS details that you see in the bottom-right corner of the plates in the design screen will remain in place. However the last entry in the control panel on the design screen allows you to add or remove the BS details. Please ensure that you have checked this box when ordering as some customers prefer to have no BS details showing and if not included in your design then we have to assume that was your intention.
Can I order a plate and ask for some changes to be made ?
Yes you can, for this service we charge additional £15.00 per plate. Below are details on how to order with design.
- Enter your reg (including any spaces) on our online plate builder.
- Please select size of plates required (standard size is 20.5 x 4.5).
- Select the font style.
- Now enter any borders, badges, slogans should you require any.
- Please select Design required from the background field.
- Once happy with your plate please click add to basket.
- If you have requested a design please email us quoting your Order Number and Reg
- A proof email will be sent to you with your design to be approved.
The reason we charge for this service is we need to stop the print of your particular order going to print. We are only able to do this if Design is required. This flags up your order and stops it going to print. We can then manually go pull out your order. We then have one of our staff in design to take your order and add it to our design software to alter your plate and send you visuals before we print.
