Direct Copy and paste from PPQ website

What happens if my personalised plates are damaged or get stolen?

If your plates are damaged or stolen, they can easily be remade in their current design. Simply visit the 'Upgrade or Remake Your Plate Design' section in Create A PlateŽ where you can order and pay online. Alternatively feel free to call PPQ on 136 356 or pop into your local Queensland Transport Customer Service Centre. Please note that your original plates must be returned to a Queensland Transport Customer Service Centre or Agency within 14 days of receipt of new plates.

i saw to replace + colour change is near $200 bucks

What's not to get?

No, they're not going to replace them for free. It's your property. No, it doesn't cost the full amount.

~$100 to do a personalised plate, ~$400 to do a prestige.

well wasnt that what the original question was asking.. do they replace them for free?.. the answer is no.

question is answered :-)

thanking you for the quick answers

Cheers Tony

I'd think your excess for your insurance to replace them would be more that the plates would be worth.. and then having that claim on your insurace

You'd think paying $2300 for a set or prestige plates was robbery, then to pay $400 for replacements.......

U do NOT have to surrender old plates.
Tell them they are in a box, or u misplaced them.

It will cost u $49 to have them replaced as i said above (well it was 3 months ago when i did it myself)

If i was to change colour theme or anything.. it would be $195..
But all i got was an exact copy and cost me $49.00

That was on their website, so may have to confirm with them. I just copied and pasted the answer.

So, don't pay those barstards the money in the first place.

Why should they replace property that belongs to you and is your responsiblity?

They shouldn't have to replace anything for free, the plates would only cost $50 max to make, I'm sure they could sell replacements a lot cheaper then $400!

I couldn't give a fuck what cause the money is going to, I'd rather it in my pocket then in some "road safety" bullshit thumbsup.gif
