Very easy site to use

Very easy site to use, ease for paying and more information that you need to know, and the customer service is very helpful, polite and friendly. Will definitely use again and I will recommend to anyone I know.

Would definitely use this company again…

Would definitely use this company again and highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a private number plate. I particularly recommend the optional paid after‑service they offer, where they notify DVLA, MOT and Tax of the plate change for you, leaving you with just one job, informing your insurance company. Everything was quick and straightforward, including an email confirming exactly when the new plates were legal to use. In my experience this was next day. I notified Absolute Reg on a Sunday afternoon and received confirmation Monday afternoon that the plates were now legal and ready to use. The turnaround was surprisingly fast. Very impressed, well done Absolute Reg for an exemplary service!

Go elsewhere!!

I bought a registration online and paid in full at the time of purchase. I received a email confirming my purchase, and was told I’d receive regular updates. What I actually received was several marketing emails, but no updates at all. After a couple of weeks of hearing nothing, I contacted them to ask what was happening, and was told it takes twenty one working days to get the retention certificate. A month after buying the registration, and still no update, I contacted them again, and was told that the issue was being escalated to a manager. I received a phone call the following day advising me that AbsoluteReg were selling the registration online behalf of a third party, and they didn’t have the latest paperwork for the registration, and as the car that the registration was on, has now been sold, the registration went with the car, and they’d lost the right to the registration number, therefore making it no longer available. If you read other reviews, this seems to be a recurring theme. If they’re selling on behalf of a third party, then payment shouldn’t be taken, until all enquiries are made to make sure the plate is still definitely available, as some third party sellers advertise on more than one site. What makes this worse is they have this couldn’t care less arrogant attitude, when speaking to you. They have your money and that’s all that matters. I now have my refund and will not be returning to AbsoluteReg. If you like hassle, then this is definitely the company for you. However, if you want a registration, avoid this company and go elsewhere.

Reply from Absolute Reg

Thank you for your review. We're sorry this purchase could not be completed and appreciate your disappointment.

Unfortunately, the registration was being sold on behalf of a third-party owner who had disposed of the vehicle before retaining the registration, meaning the rights to the registration had been lost and the sale could no longer proceed. As soon as this was confirmed, we contacted you to explain the situation and issued a full refund.

Whilst we make every effort to verify registrations before progressing an order, there are rare occasions where circumstances outside of our control prevent a transfer from completing. We also apologise if you felt our communication fell short and will take your feedback on board as we continue to improve our service.

We wish you all the best in finding the right registration.

A very smooth and easy transfer

A very smooth and easy transfer. It states it takes upto 10 days, mine took 3 for the date I sent the log book. Would recommend and would use again. Thank you for a quick service!

My plates

Once your plate has been picked and purchased it’s pretty much straight forward and a pretty fast service so I’m really pleased.
