Compliance Plate Delays Help

[Guest ylwgtr]

its not there fault...its sloppy paperwork and poor customer service on the CPA's behalf...the plates can be fast tracked at $40 dollars extra over the $40 stamping fee....if in any doubt about shifty dealings you are welcome too contact niddre nameplates with the VIN number of the car and ask if the plates been applied for...the CPA holder wont like it if he finds out you called them...but if you ask me you are within your rights

i've been waiting for a plate for a little while now, had to change cpa's due to running out of plates... turns out canberra had been sitting on the paperwork for two weeks and done sweet sfa with it. hopefully will have it next week now. skyline plates getting very hard to get now..

i've had enough of this ongoing saga, liddle old placid me has finally cracked it.. Canberra got the change of CPA holder letter 22 Nov... Replied back nearly a month farken later on the 17th Decemeber say it has been aprroved etc . It is now the 9th of Jan where is the damm plate. I'm ringing Canberra and Niddrie nameplates today to find out wtf is going on. If you a mistake they screw you quick smart but they are allowed to sit on their fat arses and do nothing.....

anyone else having delays I'm sure the shutdown over Chrissie didn't help..

finally got the answer thanks to vspecv.

the farken engineer forgot to order the plate before he went o/s

doesn't get back to monday so looks like another week at least ready to kill the farker.

Same problem ..... car is well and truly finished, sitting at the workshop for 2 weeks now collecting dust, engineer has signed it off and everything and still no plate for it. maybe Xmas/new year's slows things down. a LOT!?

[ice180]

yes they were closed until the 6th but you should have it soon maybe they sent it via the slow boat ot perth

ylwgtr they won't tell you if the plate has been printed unless you are the CPA holder which sucks I reckon

what happened to freedom of info?

well after being told he'd have his car 17th Jan this Friday it turns out the compliance place is remaining closed till next week Tuesday, so my bro in law rings the importer and blasts him saying what's goin on. In return the importer promised to pick his car up tomorrow and get it detailed and deliver it to him...let's hope he does, poor guy been in the country since November and can't see his baby...countdown is will see

[ice180]

umm they reopened on the 6th Niddrie nameplates so someone is telling fibs I know I rang them.....

[JET-RB]

yeah I agree bud something aint quite right hopefully I get the call from him telling me he's got it...
