Claire I think it's too early to panic, they are taking a few weeks to arrive. What was your estimated despatch date? Emma |

I'm waiting for a death certificate ordered on Friday 3 March and it has still not arrived. Should I be chasing them up yet or give them more time before I panic?! Thanks Claire |

I was pleasantly surprised yesterday when my certificate arrived. Ordered it 24 Feb, with estimated despatch date 13 March. Mail usually takes 7-10 days to get here from the UK, so figured even if it got despatched on time, it wouldn't be here until at least 20 March. It must have caught the mail just right, postmarked 15 March, got here 18 March. Nice surprise and even better, it provided the long awaited breakthrough I needed :-) Emma |

I ordered a cert Feb 17th and it still has not arrived! Unfortunately i have lost the original reference from them while changing over to a new computer, so I can't even inquire about it. They did charge me for it though. Should I give it up as lost? |

GRO have posted a message saying this is their busiest time of the year and they expect it to continue until after Easter. I had two certs due 15th March, still not arrived. |

Sounds about right! Dea x P.S. - It will be a pleasant surprise though - I have forgotten who I ordered and why I ordered them, so, If they are connected, I can discover it all over again !! Dea x |
