Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the process take?
It is possible to be in possession of your Deed Poll documentation within the hour (using our Premium one-hour while-you-wait service). We also offer same day dispatch on all deed polls and are posted 1st Class using Royal Mail.
The whole process of changing your name will probably take you at least two weeks to accomplish. This is because the process is not complete until you have notified record holders (government departments, companies and organisations that hold your name records) of your name change by showing them your Deed Poll document.
Do I need to send my Deed Poll back to you after I have signed it?
You only need to send your Deed Poll back to us if you also order our Legal Copy and Archive Service. For further information about this recommended service, please click on this link (opens pop-up window). If you do not also order our Legal Copy and Archive Service, after you have signed your Deed Poll, you can start using it to get your documents and records changed to your new name.
Are there any other fees payable after I have paid for my Deed Poll?
The only other expense we are aware of is the cost of getting your passport reissued in your new name. Current passport fees are available on the passport office’s website or by calling their Adviceline (see the answer to question 3 above for their number and hours).
I bought a cheap Deed Poll from the Internet and am having problems getting it accepted. If I order a Deed Poll from you, will I have any problems with it?
You will not experience any problems with a Deed Poll issued by us. We are by far the main issuer of Deed Poll documentation in the United Kingdom (we have issued over 670 thousand Deed Polls during the past 15 years) and our Deed Polls are accepted by everyone. Our Deed Polls are printed on security paper and carry our official seal so there is no question about its authenticity. Unfortunately, we issue many Deed Polls to people who have wasted their money buying from cheap Internet sites.
Will my credit rating be affected if I change my name by Deed Poll?
Your credit rating will not be affected because when you complete any application form for credit or a loan etc, you will be asked on the application form if you have ever been known by a former name. By disclosing your former name, your credit history can be accessed. Furthermore, when you notify your bank of your change of name, your bank will notify the credit reference agencies.
Is Deed Polls Online Affiliated to UK Government?
No. We are not affiliated with the UK Government and we provide a professional document service for unenrolled deed polls. You can make your own unenrolled deed poll yourself should you wish to. We provide a professional unenrolled deed poll service to take away the complexity of creating a deed poll. We also provide a guarantee should you ever have any issues with a deed poll issued by us.
