Excellent service

Excellent service especially because I was having some issues with my passport which was totally my fault. However, Cecile kindly helped me and sorted it all out and within a few weeks I finally got my new passport. Thank you for all the help and amazing customer service. I have already recommended you!

Changing your name is an absolute minefield and I really didn't know quite where to start! NameSwitch is a great idea which guides you through the process. I went for the printed package which I thought was very good and they were very efficient in sending me all the details. It's still a bit complicated as every organisation wants something slightly different and I still had to print a couple of things myself but overall I would definitely recommend the service. Thank you!

I’m glad I opted to use NameSwitch. I chose the print package, received quickly. There is a lot of helpful information plus the necessary letters and forms needed for an efficient name change after marriage. This has saved potentially hours of admin! Highly recommended 🙂

Easy and supportive

I’ll never regret choosing Name Switch to help change my name by deed poll after I got married. The entire process with Name Swtich was so easy, plus when I ran into difficulty changing my name with some organisations, the team at Name Switch were right there with me. They added their voice to my complaint and were a great support. I’d recommend anyone wanting to change their name by deed poll to choose Name Switch.

Absolutely worth every penny

Personal support and guidance and detailed assistance with each company's different processes. Absolutely worth the money. I'd recommend. It's a headache but NameSwitch made it a mild bearable one rather than a migraine!

I was expecting this to be complicated and time-consuming, but it couldn’t have been more straightforward. The team are super helpful and really responsive. I used them to carry out my deed poll name change, and then had to go back to them when I lost my original certificates. Both experiences were seamless. I highly recommend.

Great service, saved me so much time and effort!

This service was simple and easy to use.

Name Switch saved me a lot of time by doing all the research for me, providing links and forms I needed to change my name quickly. Especially as they say, the average person has to change their name with about 24 institutions - each having slightly different requirements.

It was great to receive email updates on my purchase and I didn't need to contact them for anything further.

I got the printed version, which includes the Passport and DVLA forms along with various letters other forms (which they partially completed) and still had access to the online version which was brilliant for instant access to the links provided as most places now have an online route to name change.

For the supermarkets and store cards they also have a handy guide to help with these.

Instructions were clear and I've already been recommending Name Switch to others.

A most brilliant service

A most brilliant service! The service is highly professional, efficient and organised. NameSwitch has saved me hours upon hours of time which I am truly grateful for. A daunting task and where do you start? Instructions are provided at the outset when collecting all the information you need for the process such as house title deed reference numbers. On arrival the pack is highly organised. Good quality paper is used for the letters. Very clear instructions with email addresses and phone numbers. I teach English. The letters are very well written leaving spaces for dates and signatures. It was a great help to have the required contents listed at the base of each letter. Such a help to me as each one wanted different items. Land Registry returned my marriage certificate and without me including a SAE! For each letter if a particular form was required as well as the marriage certificate NameSwitch included it. Such a relief! I just have one suggestion and I know it would not work! To have addressed envelopes in the pack. That was the part my 'new' husband had to complete! A very 'BIG' thank you for saving me an awful lot of time!

What an incredible review to receive Louise!

We are so thankful to you for taking the time to share your experience and super thrilled that you found the service to be so valuable!

We have explored the envelope + stamps option and ruled out as it brings the overall costs of package too high. We can explore including it as an optional add-on.... something for us to look into!

Wishing you every happiness as your next chapter unfolds from all of us at team NameSwitch!

Top-notch, professional, warm and friendly service, with a quality product

I cannot recommend this service highly enough. A few years ago I experienced a very long, tedious, frustrating and stressful time when I reverted back to my maiden name following a divorce. The paperwork was repetitive and the expenses kept rising. When my daughter expressed a desire to follow suit, desperate to shed her father's last name, I dreaded her facing the same. As her 21st birthday approached, I decided to bite the bullet and began researching...then I discovered NameSwitch!!
NamesSwitch promised to take all the stress and multiple expenses away, and I can quite honestly say - they're as good as their word! The communication is excellent, they keep customer service as a top priority; one of the team is always there with a prompt reply or a piece of advice or support...even a warm and friendly comment to ease the process along.
I wanted to buy the Premium Pack for my daughter's birthday and they advised how I could purchase beforehand and keep it secret to surprise her on her birthday. She was thrilled to bits when, on her special day, I forwarded her the email for her NameSwitch.
The quality of the pack is also excellent. She has just recently received it very promptly in the post after she input the checklist of paperwork digitally. She was so excited thumbing through the Deed Poll and contacting the witness to sign it to start the process.
The NameSwitch team have kept it touch after purchase and promise to be there until the end of the process to support us if needed.
The NameSwitch team provide such a top-notch, professional and yet warm and friendly service. You feel in safe hands. Knowing it all comes from the CEO's own experience of a nightmare change of name to which I relate, makes it a sincere and genuine attempt to ease you through what would otherwise be a tough and stressful challenge. Thank you to all the team at NameSwitch.

A daunting decision made so much easier!

I selected the deed poll premium package as I divorced 20 years ago but my daughter has just got married and taken her husband’s surname. My decision to return to my maiden name was supported by the feedback from NameSwitch, and the package I had decided on.

Brilliant company

I couldn’t recommend name switch higher! I contacted them feeling completely overwhelmed and distressed with trying to change my name on my driving license, which had expired and they refused to accept my divorce acknowledgment as they no longer issue a certificate. They also wouldn’t accept my prior id as it was in my married name. Name switch made it effortless and completely took control for me. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again or recommend them to anyone. Thank you so much.

Why thank you Hanna for your kind review!

It can be incredibly frustrating when processes are disconnected. Final Orders are not longer sent as hard copies, stamped by the court (which would be deemed and original). Instead they are emailed and even though they should be accepted by government bodies & companies (such as HM Passport Office & DVLA) in reality, print outs are rejected.
We are thrilled to have been able to help you navigate through it and reclaim your maiden name. All the best as your new chapter continues to unfold and thanks again for taking the time to leave a review!

Brilliant Service!

If I could give more than 5 stars I certainly would. Nameswitch made everything so much easier with changing my name after getting married. I had actually not even thought about half of the places they had as options for name changes! So thank you so much for being life savers ☺️

Amazing service

Amazing service! The team were so helpful and my documents were delivered super quick. There’s a massive range of companies to chose from to inform of your name change, I don’t think I would’ve even thought to inform half of them!! Would absolutely recommend to anyone, takes all the stress out of the name change process 😊
