Testimonials
Everything went smoothly and all my questions were answered immediately. Phil was very helpful.
This was an absolute pleasure dealing with Jill on this purchase, she is very professional, very pleasant and must a joy to work with, nothing was too much of a problem and explained the process extremely well. She must be a pleasure to work with and an asset to the company. Thank you Jill and National numbers Brian C
They were very happy to give help and advice over the phone. Bought the number online on a Saturday afternoon, the number plates arrived on Wednesday, and the paperwork arrived on Thursday. Excellent, would happily recommend to anyone.
A transparent, friendly and efficient service from beginning to end. Jill was especially helpful. I would recommend this company without hesitation.
I have to say that all the members of staff I spoke with were friendly, helpful and most importantly, knowledgeable which is more than I can say for DVLA! Everything they promised was adhered to. Great communication - keeping me well informed throughout the purchase. Personally, I can only but highly recommend Nationalnumbers. A very big thank you for making it so easy!
After waiting 18 months to sell my number plate, the seven weeks from NationalNumbers phone call to completion went quick enough ! Not I hasten to add, the fault of NationalNumbers. I suspect the biggest delay was with the DVLA and their processes. The company was very professional, kept me informed all the way and always responded to emails. I spoke to several people on the phone and they were always able to give me up-to-date accurate information. They were courteous and helpful. Anyone who puts the following on their website might appear frivolous but what it actually reflects is a human approach to life and an appropriate sense of humour ! "National Numbers is based in sunny Billingham in the North East of England. The staff all wear flat caps and have a passing interest in whippets! The office has a beautiful panoramic view of the largest petrochemical complex in Europe." Thank you NationalNumbers for selling my plate and making me smile.
I dealt with Craig over the Phone during the auction. Clearly spoken over the phone and gave me a ring several minutes before the auction took place. Much appreciated, won the bid.
Spoke to Marty at nationalmumbers who was extremely helpful in finding my plate the service was brilliant. Thanks Ian
