its called a unique card and you apply on line. tenner fee for the card plus either six quid per month or one pound per transaction - up to you. top it p at the post office, takes 2 days for credit to appear pm me if you look but can't find xx

Hi Jules babes mwahh yep and should be loads cheaper to (i hope lol) Sxx

This will be a good thing especially if you're not 100% sure it's the right cert. ~~~~~~~~Steve Mwah!!! ;-)

lorraine i got myself a pay as you go credit card which i use just for memberships and fees! sam

Thats a point L But just use a pals and pass the cash over lol Sxx

only downfall of this that i can see is that payment will only be by credit/debit card - so for those of us without them will be stuck to using the old system

Ahh sweet maid Joy No tis not that kind of bird mwahh Sxx

me to Lin I hate ordering certs lol so this should make life a lot better for us lot

opps sorry lol At the moment, in order to get a copy birth, marriage or death certificate, you have to first search the GRO indexes (quarter by quarter unless you're lucky and find it on FreeBMD) either on-line, at the Family Record Centre or at the relevant local register office. When you have the required reference you then pay your £7 and order a copy certificate (again, either on-line or in person)! As from next year you will be able to search the complete records by name on-line and download a copy certificate. Presumably there will still be a fee involved, but it should be a lot cheaper than £7. The downside is that you will just get a plain paper copy, but there may well still be the option of paying for a 'proper' copy!

seems its gonna be up and running next April
