I want to send of for some certs, do i send of in bulk or singly, as i remember some time back, there was a post on here about problems with certs, just cannot remember which way the problem was. Micheal. |

Cool hi, dont think it makes any difference. Ive sent off for 5 at one time, and they all came back withing a week, so ong as you give all the info. The easiest way I find is to go onto the 1837 Online web site, look for the 'ordering certs' then register with them, password and email address, then all you do next time is go back on the site, log on and its ready for you to order, and you can pay by credit, debit or switch card. I use switch. They then send you an email with all the transaction info just in case your need it. Tellyou what though, when you add up how much you spend on certs etc for family research, it comes to a small fortune. It must be one of the most expensive 'hobbies' of all time. TED. |

I've ordered in bulk before now without any problems although they normally send each cert out in a seperate envelope and its usually the one you're most desperate for that turns up last! |

I can see I'm going to have to ask for a cash donation from you rich lot!!!!!!!! lol!!!! I don't think I have ever sent for more then one at a time!!! (and please don't ask how many certs I've got, because the answer to that question is withheld under the Official Secrets Act)........... Merry |

Merry, yea you could be right. My wife brought up 3 lovely girls, all turned out to be hard working, married with children, but according to the Govt she was not in full time employment, hence when she retired she got, or gets £46 to live on, AND guess how much it costs to watch a CHELSEA game? The answer is about the same as my wife gets to live on for a week. Are we living in a crazy world or what? TED. |

Hiya, I order mine off the website for £7.00 each, when I telephoned an order through in June (first and last time) I ended up paying £8.50 per cert, annoying as I was placing an order for 6 certs at the time! So unless things have changed since June, it's £8.50 per cert by phone. Justine x |
