“Middle men ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by LeeCashin on 12/03/2021

The worst service I have experienced in my life. Purchased 2 Irish birth certificates using their "express" fast service that is advertised to work after a 5 day process time but recieved my order 100+ days late with no apology what so ever. They are money grabbers for a service I now know I could have done myself by contacting the irish givernment website and buying them direct for 20 Euros each. I urge you to avoid them no matter how desperate you are or how much you believe their adverts.

“Paid £15.00 for photocopy ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Moore191 on 08/02/2017

Paid £15 for a copy of a birth certificate but when it arrived it's a photocopy, which is not valid. Cannot get hold of the company to complain.

“SUPERB QUICK SERVICE”

★★★★★

written by suncelauro on 19/01/2015

Ordering from Turkey felt a little scary, but from start to finish the service was superb. I spoke to a member of staff who assured me they would be as quick as they could to get my certificate to me. I recommended to a friend who has now used this service and will continue to do so. Highly recommended I would use again. Thank you.

“rude staff money taken no goods”

★☆☆☆☆

written by ccVaughan235 on 31/10/2014

I ordered a birth cert over a month ago . The money was Taken promptly but after a month I had still received nothing. I called and spoke to a rude Lady and asked that I have a full refund as I had not received any birth cert. The reply I got was "No we don't do refunds" sorry I paid for a service which I didn't get. I then asked to speak to her manager who apparently was in a 3 hour meeting. If meetings are always this long no wonder so many unhappy people not receiving there orders. I have Sent email to them and await a response with a full refund. Shocking Use a proper .Gov service

“DONT USE THIS COMPANY”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Brylees42 on 09/08/2014

I ordered a replacement birth certificate for myself on 17th july they told me it was despatched on 31st july,it is now 9th Aug and still nothing has arrived.I have rung them several times,the phone is usually answered by a polite well spoken man,but when i rang yesterday 8th Aug as i am desperate to get the certificate,i need for proof if ID,the phone was answered by a different man with a Brumie accent who was less than polite,he said the standard delivery was second class so it could take a while to get here,i said i had received 2nd class mail from other places and it came within 3 days,he blamed the royal mail and said they would send another certificate.The previous man said the same the day before i am taking myself off to the registrar in my town on Monday to fork out £20 for another,they charged me £15.95,and it looks like i am not getting a certificate,DONT USE THIS COMPANY.

“Do not use this company”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 16/05/2014

This company and UK Offical records are an appalling company. For over 2 weeks they kept telling me it was in the post, they said that they were having difficulty scanning it as we had asked them to email a copy. No wonder they were having trouble it hadn't been done. At one point they took a photo of someone holding the document (so his thumb was on it) then told us they had managed to scan it!!!Only after telling them that we had been onto Trading Standards and a solicitor did they actually deal with the document. Oh and don't wait for them to call back.

“Terrible!!!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by klSloan494 on 13/05/2014

I needed a copy of my birth certificate in a hurry. I noted that the site stated my certificate would be with me in 5 days....WRONG!! It took 10 days! In the meantime I had to pay a further £45 to travel to the office I was registered in to purchase another. I would NOT recommend anybody use this company

“I wouldn't recommend them to my enemy”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Fosterwm276 on 01/04/2014

Mistaking them for an officialservice I ordered a birth certificate. When I realised they were not an official service, within an hour of placing the order, I emailed to cancel my order. I am being refused a cancellation on the grounds that they cannot cancel orders and the fact that I seem to have no distance selling rights. An terrible company, don't get involved with them.

“Terrible service”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 11/01/2014

I ordered a certificate but nothing arrived. I tried ringing them but it took nearly 30 attempts to get someone to answer. I was then told that my certificate had been sent. That's great I said. Can I have the tracking number then please . It's downstairs, we will ring you back with it. Of course no one rang back and to this day they have never been able to furnish a tracking number. So was that certificate actually ever sent? I will let you decide.

Very true, the company is not to be trusted, use the passport office they do the same service, and you get what you paid for.

“CHEATERS. BEWARE. STAY AWAY. DO NOT PROVIDE CARD DETAILS”

★☆☆☆☆

written by JAGS-P on 26/11/2013

This is a bogus website. They only cheat people. They do not provide any certificates and abuse your card details. Their contact number on the website does not exist. Its the same number for fax, inside the UK and overseas inquiries. They charged extra on my card and never responded to any of my emails. I have been stung so far for £ 90.0o. I have now requested for a charge back from my bank. I am not sure if I will get it though. I would never recommend them to my worst enemies. The positive reviews on the site are all fake. BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE. STAY AWAY STAY AWAY STAY AWAY. " YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED" . And if you are of the few LIKE ME who get stung first and then look up for reviews. YOU HAVE BEEN DONE MATE. Take it as a lesson and move on.

I too used this Service about a week ago, 29.95 was debited from my bank and they have said that they are not the same company that took the money and they have no record of my order. I am going to the bank to report it as fraud as if they have no record of an order why on earth would they debit my account out of the blue with out my permission or my bank details

Please be AWARE of that the organisation you are talking about are as follows. They are using a similar name to their web address which is uk-officialservices.

I would recommend checking which organisation you order the certificate from. As the fees they charge are £29.95.

Hi, i reported the matter to the bank as fraud, it was dealt with as fraud and the bank refunded the money to my account and said they would investigate the matter further. I have since learned not to use offical sites unless they have gov.com in the name. Good luck.

“Fantastic fast and professional service to rely on!”

★★★★★

written by MrsCoombesG on 12/09/2013

I needed my daughters Birt Cetificate with the Apostille stamp to be sent to me asap abroad. I haver completed the online request and paid. I could only afford the 10 day service so I have telephoned the office and just politly asked if it could be done asap. I was very surprised when a very polite and understanding man answered and assured me that they will endevour and get the documents to me within a week as they work load is not too high and they will be happy to help me in this way. Also the Apostille stamp could have required another 10 days. I have ordered this after 12 pm on Wednesday 14th August and signed for the documents Tuesday 20th August at 10am! Once again thank you so much for your help and understanding and here is a 10 out of 10 recommendation for you!!!

“If you read the reviews that praise it then look at...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by 7886steve on 02/08/2013

If you read the reviews that praise it then look at how everyone of them uses poor grammar / spelling. This is presumably a Nigerian based setup or something similar with someone in Birmingham fronting the scam. Be warned.
