“Outstanding customer service.
I ordered a photographic memories book during the christmas holiday period for a relative's birthday on Jan 5th and given the published printing dates and closedown I anticipated and was happy that she would receive it within a week or so of her birthday. However my order was obviously prioritised on your return to work (from the birthday message we put in the book) and she actually received it on her birthday. Thank you very much for what I consider is outstanding customer service and extraordinary attention to detail. She was thrilled to receive the book too”

I didn't thnk they would arrive in time for me to send to her for Xmas, but thanks to your excellent serivce, they arrived in plenty of time to include one in her parcel. They were very well packaged, too.
Thanks again, she will be thrilled when her calendars arrives!”

“I placed an order early Monday afternoon July 3rd and received it this morning (July 5th) despite the order including a book with a personal message on the flyleaf.
Even though we paid for expedited delivery this is still incredibly quick service!
The way life seems to work is that people are very quick to complain but slow to say thank you.
The map and the book are exactly what I wanted and I am staggered as well as being impressed at the rapid turnaround of and completion of the order.
Suffice to say, thank you and I will have no hesitation in recommending Francis Frith to anybody looking for a special gift or historical memento”
“Hello everyone, Yesterday I received my second book on Andover. Today I received my book on Salisbury. Thank you for an excellent product and an excellent service! I will be ordering more books on the South of England in the near future. Take care, Chris”

“I have just been contacted by a Heather Shepherd who recognised my surname as it turned out her grandmother and I were neighbours for the first 20 years of my life. I write to say thank you to 'Francis Frith' for enabling my memories to become so active and I recommend to any one searching for friends/relatives do not give up as Francis Frith makes it all possible. My impending visit to UK in December 2011 has suddenly become even better than I was expecting. The above has just been posted and since I realise that you may not read every posting I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your colleagues for the most wonderful site on the Internet.”

“Got you from the Helpful Book Company and just wanted to say what a very nice website you have, I sent a couple of epostcards already and found it was easy to do, no doubt I will succumb to some paid-for items in due course!!! We live in France so this site could be useful ( and interesting) for presents................ Best wishes, Audre”

“I have finally received my eagerly awaited copy of the book "I Remember When...". I was curious as to which story your company had published in the book. I was overwhelmed and astonished to see that you have published four of my stories, one of which is on Page 69. This entailed the story of the Majestic Cinema in Mitcham and my subsequent dream of going to the South Pacific. The pictures attached are in fact one of the islands I lived on for 14 years with my husband and two daughters - the youngest was born there and the eldest was 16 months when we arrived. We were there when Papua New Guinea became an Independent Nation and I have many experiences and memories of the island of New Britain - of course I have written these down - but are only for private publication. We left when my husband was murdered, but that is another story.
I continue to live in the Pacific and at the moment I am in Far North Queensland, Australia.
I will continue to write on your site on the different places I visited during my young years. I enjoy reading the book, it is very well presented, and learning of more experiences of the other writers in the book.
Thank you again for publishing my stories and I look forward to seeing another book published next year, whether it has any of my stories in it or not.
I would be grateful if you can forward my thanks to John M Buck”
