Went to Halfords Bolton branch today to have set of number plates made + fitted. It was raining and the young lad was adament the sticky pads would hold the new reg plates securely. He was also certain no need to bother to clean the area with the cleaning wipes as he'd been doing this for four years. The area were the plates were being fixed was still wet so I told him the pads wouldnt stick. He continued so the pad fell off. I unfortunately then told him that I f in told you they wouldn't stick....He then childishly ranted that I'd swore at him then ran in the store + disapeared. I was given no apology or explanation from the manager other than 'did I want to buy the plates without being fitted'. Im 63 yrs old and disabled and to be treated like this is disgraceful. Two staff members prior this incident was calling this young lad for his incompetence but it seems I had to accept his poor attempt of fixing adhesive pads to a wet surface. Pathetic. The actual plates are good but having them fitted at Halfords is NOT recommended. I had to pay £35.98 for two standard reg plates. Not cheap. Now I have to have them fitted elsewhere. Absolutely disgraceful + shoddy behaviour. Im disgusted with Halfords Bolton. Shame on you.
