Isn't it 20p + 3.6%?

it is 3.4% plus 20p, i was looking into this yesterday

(3.4% of £49.00 = £1.67, plus 20p = £1.87)

However, it seems the receiver of funds can pay the fees, but only in a personal transfer, not for a sale, which looks to be a problem i feel

Default Excellent Service from FRF

I contacted Simon last week regarding upper control arms for the rear suspension.
Very helpful on the telephone and a good discount on genuine volvo parts.
They arrived within 3 days and are both now fitted on the car.
Excellent service thankyou Simon of FRF.

Just received more parts from Simon. Ordered yesterday morning, arrived today.

When his price for genuine Volvo rear strut top mounts is less than a tenner off the price of aftermarket ones, it makes my decision very easy :-)

Cheers, Pete

Thumbs up

Ordered some paint (tin & pen) on Tuesday, had to wait for them to come in at FRFs end but I received them today. Top service really, great price, plus the chap on the other end is ever so polite

Top marks

To be honest Simon, Paypal is "good" but isn't the be all and end all... I wouldn't bother as a business which already has merchant services.... after all Paypal is renowned for payment problems, frozen payments and clawbacks and then the huge fees.....

Lets face it, To use Paypal people must have a bank account/debit card... so could transfer money electronically to your bank account... Or failing that, just ring you with their debit/credit card details much the same as I do every time.

I can strongly recommend Simon (and Jeff & Co) at FRF as a place and people to deal with, I've had my car in there for work (last minute panic stop) and also have bought many parts from them both by mail order and in person (I had a habit of visiting wales every couple of weeks, and I miss the drive across on the A483 from Chester to Carmathen at 4am )

I've never had a problem getting parts from FRF, and the one part I had that failed was replaced with no hassle and no problems, I've bought plenty of stuff from them plus I've worked with FRF from a specialist perspective as well and know that their service/repair work is top class

There you go Simon

First order and extremely delighted with service.

Ordered radiator on Monday afternoon and received it this morning. Excellent packaging. Altogether a very pleasant transaction. I think I know where my future Volvo parts requirements will come from.

Thanks Simon.

Default Great Service

First time I've used Simon for parts and only wish I'd found him sooner.

S80 driveshaft Ordered Monday afternoon, arrived Wednesday morning, less than 48 hours after ordering. I couldn't have picked it up from my dealer any sooner and I didn't have to do the trip. And a discount into the bargain, it just gets better.

Thanks for a great service Simon.
