    Hindi ko alam if is modus toh, pero I bought a brand new car and specifically requested an ending na hindi coding pag Friday. Pag bigay ng plate sakin, Friday ang coding. Sinabi ko sa SA ko at lagi ko pinapaalala na wag Friday. Ngayon, kinuha ko yung plate at pina meet sakin ng SA yung taga LTO. Nagbayad ako ₱5000 para palitan niya ng ending yung plate. Nung pumunta ako sa casa, 7 kami may ganitong problem.

    Hindi yan modus.. SOP na yan kapag request ng ending plate.

    May ibang SA naman na sasabihin sayo na hindi kailangan magbayad kapag sinuwerte na ending number na gusto mo yung matatangap mo

    what serchief meant was... they'll specifically give you what you don't want so you'll pay up

    so it's better not to tell them. 1 out of 5 are pretty poor odds anyway

    I guess we were lucky with my dad's dmax this year. We specifically said either monday or friday.

    Conduction sticker we got friday, and plate also got friday. Agent didnt ask for any additional fee.

    Re plate ending, depends on your agent really or dealer's policy.

    When i got my nissan, it was back when they were not that much in terms of volume compared to toyota, honda and mitsu. So selection wise, they didnt have much plate number allocations.

    While for my brother's toyota, agent wasnt really active in assisting him and didnt advice options for plate ending and we got specifically what we said we shouldnt get. Other days would be 'fine'.

    So, its more in hindsight for my bro now as they just went with what agent told them.

    Maybe its a hit or miss. Not telling your preferred number is better than your agent screwing you. 4 out of 5 chances are better than 1 sure shot of being purposely screwed over.

    From my experience, I told my agent my exact preferred number without any fees. He said he will try but no assurance. I got my preferred conduction sticker, and even exact ending number on the plate. Maybe just got lucky. I'd rather not say it next time.

    and couldn't back it out anymore when you said you ain't gonna pay.
