“Difficult to contact afterwards”

★★★☆☆

written by on 01/11/2013

The first part of the process worked well and I ordered an extra 5 copies in order to benefit automatically from their free archive service. However, after confirming I was happy with the e-draft, the company then started asking me to pay for the archive service. Strangely, all the email addresses no longer worked, phone calls would be charged for and I had to go through their Live Assistance Support. Half a day later, I have still not heard back. Reading the small print in the terms and conditions, it seems that this "optional" extra free archive service additionally requires a letter sent to a freepost address to arrive within 5 days. I have now sent that, plus one with a stamp to their main office address. I'm not very impressed by having to jump through so manny hoops for something they presented as being automatic.

“Simple process”

★★★☆☆

written by on 20/10/2013

Don't understand why they post the Deed Poll to you in your previous name. I know the DP is not legal under signed and witnessed but you should have a choice. You can legally call yourself anything without a Deed Poll anyway! For example, for a woman escaping DV in Refuge, this could be awkward and a risk. However, the whole process overall is simple and well explained. Copies could be cheaper though!

I found the online process very simple and easy to use. I had a prompt response but had a little difficulty accessing my ecopy via the link provided. Once I obtained this it was straightforward and a lot of useful information was provided.

“Too many questions”

★★★☆☆

written by Fayemarie on 31/07/2013

The process in general was very easy and straight forward it's was all good until. I clicked the link to confirm the ecopy was correct and it kept asking all these do you understand questions which was very long when it could have been easier to just send me an email stating everything I needed to know :) other than that it was great

“Before Purchaising”

★★★☆☆

written by on 26/07/2013

My concern about the service is that it wasn't clear the need of taking my Deed Poll to a UK registered solicitor or UK registered notary public to witness my signature on the document. I wasn't expecting to pay more to complete the legalisation process of my Deed Poll. It also wasn't clear that after sign the Deed Poll document in front of a solicitor/notary public it should be post to the Legalisation Office in Milton Keynes for legalisation. It would be very helpful if all this details were informed before I have made my purchase, including the address of the Legalisation Office in Milton Keynes.

“Name change”

★★★☆☆

written by Jackie13 on 24/07/2013

I am happy to just be able to sort this out on line The only little disappointment was the fact that I waited over 24 hours to review my name change and its days You review it within two hours so obviously this will delay things

I am still trying to contact the legal deed poll service to find out where my documents are. I have called the number on their website and the despatch line numerous times a day since I last posted on here. They keep me on hold and then cut me off, saying they are busy and to call again later which is what I do. Still, they cut me off. When I email them, I get an email back saying my email has been automatically deleted. The live chat on their website never ever works. Can anyone help me?

Why don't you try writing a letter explaining the situation, when you post it record or register it. That way it has to be signed for. I think it's £1:70 to record it and about £6:00 to register. If you register it they guarantee next day delivery,and you can track it on line. I hope this is of some help.

I cannot get in contact with the company, does anyone know where I can find an unknown number where I can actually contact them? I paid £8.50 to archive my deed poll but haven't received that deed poll to sign. I want that deed poll or my money back. Live chat doesn't work, they don't email back and the phone number to call the deed poll officer cuts out after putting me on hold for ages. Please help?

Have you tried ringing both the numbers that are shown on te website? Both the Landline and mobile? Have you also tried requesting a call back? Failing all that you could always submit in writing to the company your issue as their address is also given on the "contact us" page

Hi, I used the same site and had no problems at all. I can understand your frustration on not being able to find a number to contact them. You may need a reference number that you received by email if you ordered on line This is the information I received by email when I used this service some months ago. I hope this helps and good luck in sorting the issue.

Hi, I also have used this site, albeit about a year ago. I found the service to be excellent. I also phoned them and had no issues. Agree with other posts, pls try using other methods to contact and perhaps during off peak times. Apologies, wish I could be of more help...

I had no problems with this company. The guy dealing with my Deed Poll called and sorted everything. The Deed Poll was sent out 2 days later. Quick, easy and efficient. There should be numbers in the email they sent you confirming your request. I hope you get this sorted

I just used this company. The time limit on ordering legal copies is just 48 hours from when you tell them you are happy with the Deed Poll they've drawn up and they do the legal stuff. The only way around this is to pay a fee £8.75 I think, and they will archive the information for you. I'm guessing the archive means you can then pay to get copies whenever you want in future. I was impressed with their customer service - they responded very quickly. Have you tried e-mailing them?
