Title: Dubmesiter are F@"!!*$ SH!T!!!
Post by: Ben_1uk on 03 July 2009, 16:52
I ordered a pair of German style plates on 24th June from Dubmeister as well as two Wolfsburgh ABT Tuning  plate holders. The plates arrived no problem, but I am still waiting for my plate holders.

The car has been back from the bodyshop since Monday this week and I haven't been able to drive it since because I can't fix the plates to the car. I currently have the plates displayed in the windows, but I'm not happy to drive around with the plates like this.

I have phoned Dubmeister over 20 times now over the course of the week trying to find when the plate holders will arrive but I cannot get hold of anyone! It's frickin' ridiculous :angry: I've checked my bank and they've taken the money, but still no plate holders. I probably wouldn't be so pi$$sed if someone would just pick up the f*****g phone :angry:

I hate being ignored! I won't be bothering with them again!!! The service is absolute dog sh!te.

Rant over.

sorry to hear it mate, there is nothing worse than ringing up and never getting an answer. Hope they turn up soon.

German plates are gay. We live in britian did you know?  :tongue:

I was just about to start a new topic 'Sod german plates, VAG plates FTW'

with a pic of my mint plates made by the boys at VW along with my VAG number plate holders. £3 for each plate and about £5 for each number plate holder. Cheap as chips AND you wont get any agro by the police.  :cool:

I wouldn't bother!

They still haven't turned up yet. They said they would dispatch the correct plate surrounds on Wednesday!?!? They should've turned up by now! Orders go wrong and the post is crap at the best of times, but to not be able to get hold of anyone is sh*t!

 :huh: What?

I've managed to get hold of Dubmesiter again - finally! Apparently, the surrounds I ordered were out of stock (despite being told two days prior that they had plenty in) and they've had to order a load from Germany. There's likely to be a further weeks delay minimum before the postman arrives!

I think the thing that has annoyed me the most throughout is the total lack of contact. It's pi$$ poor performance by any company who doesn't answer the phone or return voicemail messages. All I can say is that now I've ordered them, I'll just keep waiting, but if I'd known this was the trouble I'd have, I wouldn't have bothered quite frankly.

I just think people have the right to know mate. I would be very dubious about buying anything from them again.

Right guys,

Where else can I buy German plate surrounds from? I've still not had the surrounds from Dubmesiter and I've just been told this morning it might take up to another week - bringing the total waiting time to over 3 weeks!!!

Any help would be appreciated as I'm now beginning to despair!

***edit***

Will these fit my Dubmeister plates: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-Audi-Wolfsburg-German-Number-Plate-Surrounds-GTI-R32_W0QQitemZ150351185979QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item2301a1083b&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12%7C66%3A2%7C39%3A1%7C72%3A1683%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50 (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-Audi-Wolfsburg-German-Number-Plate-Surrounds-GTI-R32_W0QQitemZ150351185979QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item2301a1083b&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12%7C66%3A2%7C39%3A1%7C72%3A1683%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50)

 :rolleyes: FFS (which means for f*ck sake!).

I've checked the sellers terms and conditions and it states that for a "distant sale", ie, where the seller and buyer have not met or had any dealings face-to-face, there is a cooling off period of 7 sevens after the goods have been received by the buyer, in which time items can be returned.

I figure if I leave the order on with Dubmeister and wait for the Ebay plate surrounds to turn up in the meantime, I will eventually get sorted one way or the other depending on which turn up first  :laugh:
