Default back boxes & earth terminals

Hello,

I've bought some back boxes from Toolstation but some of the earth
terminals face the wrong way, with the hole for the cable facing the
side of the box. This will make fitting the earth trickier than if the
hole faced into the centre of the box. Is it possible to rotate the
terminals or are they fixed? I've just tried a pair of pliers but they
just seemed to slip. I'm wondering whether to ask for an exchange?

Thanks.
