“Bought as a birthday gift and I selected the wrong date didn't I! Messaged and was advised to return the paper for a refund and place a new order for the correctly dated paper. I had to chase once and Im still waiting for the refund but I have been contacted to say it is being processed so i don't have any concerns about not receiving it. My brother loved the paper even although he received it a few days late but that was my fault. I would definitely order again - such a unique gift for a recipient!”
“Brilliant idea, great quality, the only suggestion would be to make the paper look a bit more like the newspaper old paper, maybe. Wonderful gifts! I've ordered two, I'll order the third one soon.”
“I recommend giving this business a wide berth. The 'personalisation' is just a printed sticker and the customer service is non existent. They printed the same thing twice on mine. I had the misfortune of dealing with the worst customer service person ever - Yvette, the so-called Senior Team Leader. I SPENT £118 and now have to claim my money back through PayPal as the goods are UNFIT FOR PURPOSE. They really are not interested in customer satisfaction but only in taking money for low quality sub-standard product.”
“I bought this as a gift for someone celebrating a milestone birthday. It arrived in a timely way and was packaged in the way I had hoped with the personalised note in the box with a carefully wrapped old newspaper of the date I'd asked for. It was well received and a great talking point as we went through the news and adverts of the date in question. Since this one I've ordered one for a football fan as I think they're great gifts.”
“Really lovely gift for a friends 60th birthday. He was absolutely gobsmacked and so very touched by the personalised nature of the news paper and whiskey. He spent hours pouring over the paper and loved the fact his house was worth £4,000 back in 1962. He said he will be framing the paper which I thought was lovely. Would highly recommend.”
“Wonderful service and a magnificent product which I can't wait to present to my next door neighbour on the occasion of his 90th birthday. Thank you very much for everything”
“Originally I was looking for newspaper for date of his birth then saw this history of his favourite rugby club & thought it was the better option. Ordered easily & arrived quickly well packaged in time for his birthday”
“I am very happy with my order, a black leather bound book with my husbands name and date of birth on the front, my husband will be overjoyed when he opens it on his birthday. Such a lovely unusual keepsake.”
“It was a waste of time, ordered and paid only to be told the date of newspaper was unavailable and refunded after 5-7 days Should have been made clear which dates are available to order and which are not.”
“The process for ordering was easy. Delivery overseas was quick,efficient and smooth. The recipient was so pleased with his gift. I would definitely recommend Historic newspapers to friends or family for special events.”
