For purchases made through one of our finance plans the agreement to purchase begins as soon as the company receives notification of the online finance application being successful. Failure to return signed copies of the credit agreement to our finance partner will result in the purchaser being liable to make full payment directly to Premier Plates UK within 10 working days from receipt of order.

1.2 It is the sole responsibility of the purchaser to ensure that the details entered into web based forms are correct and that information provided to our company representatives is correct at the time of purchase.
