  • I still have not got the first will I ordered, and am getting more recent ones still. Anyone still have their old wills outstanding?

    • The oldest one I am waiting for should have arrived on 16th Sep.

      All the older ones arrived in the last 2 weeks so hopefully not much longer for you to wait.

      • Still waiting for one I ordered that should have arrived 8th August. Otherwise have got the others ordered either same date or later.
        p.s. The one I haven't got yet is the one I wanted the most lol.

        • I am in a circular "chat" about the one they didn't send - they keep telling me to reorder with the correct details, I keep saying I would do but their system will spit it out because they insist it isn't there as it is incorrectly indexed.

          I am sending instructions of where to find it including print screens with the same response and anyway why should I have to pay again?

          It's taking several days for each reply from them .... anyone else trying to order from the same pages will have the same problem.

            • Still waiting for the first one I ordered on the 27th July, due 11th August.
              I did receive two I ordered on the 16th August on the 30th October.

              • I wonder what is holding up the ones that several of us ordered earlier? I'm fascinated to know how they are working the system.

                  me too. I felt bad contacting them, I just wondered if they had messed up and the first lot were marked as done when they weren't. They have replied a week after contacting them, and am fairly sure they didn't check my order just that they were swamped. So I was still not certain if they really hadn't messed up.

                  Very disappointed with their process and lack of organisation, gives govt agencies a bad name :( Then all govt/;local govt get tarred with same brush.

                  • It's interesting, but frustrating for those still waiting for those early wills, as to why they are taking so long. I ordered 3 on 22 August and 1 on 25 Sept. All arrived between 1 and 6 Nov. I wonder if a batch that arrived on a particular day or a batch of early ones without a folio no. got deleted by mistake? I mean it's really odd they can't find them but we can

                    • Oh I do hope they haven't lost them:( The only one I am waiting for is my granddads and I have always fancied seeing that. I was 6 when he died and I remember Mum buying me my first watch, an Ingersoll, and telling me that it was a parting gift from Granddad.

                      • Chrissie, I'm also waiting for my grandads. I more or less know what it said as I was in my 20's when he died but would just like to have a copy of it.

                          • As I am still waiting for the one I ordered on the 27th July I used the 'contact us' to send an enquiry.

                            Got back the standard reply ' We are experiencing very high demand for copies of wills....Blah, blah, blah' the next day! I think they must the standard response on auto reply.

                                    • Several people seem to keep mentioning 23rd and 24th July orders. I would be wondering if they had a blip in their computers those days if I hadn't received another one that was also ordered on 23rd July at the same time.

                                        I thought that they might have, which is why I did raise a call, but got std reply....almost as if they didn't check...
