How It Works
Three short steps: your details, who it's going to, then your letter. You'll see exactly how it looks before you pay.
- 1
Write It
Add your address, who the letter is going to, and type your letter, formal or friendly, however you like. We put your address, the date and their address in the right places.
- 2
Check It
See the finished letter before you pay, and go back to change anything you like.
- 3
We Post It

What Can I Write?
Anything you can type, we can post. People use it for:
- complaints and refund requests
- cancelling a contract, membership or subscription
- letters to a landlord, letting agent or council
- thank-you letters and notes to family and friends
- letters to someone in prison, or to your MP
Want help with the wording? Our templates write the letter for you from a few questions.
How to Write a Good Letter
Say Why You're Writing First
Put the point of your letter in the first line, for example "I am writing to ask for a refund for the washing machine I bought on 3 September."
Give the Facts in Order
Include dates, amounts, order or account numbers, and what has happened so far. Short paragraphs are easier to read.
Say What You Want, and By When
Be clear about what you'd like them to do, for example "Please reply within 14 days."
Keep It to One Page if You Can
Your first page is included in the price. Longer letters are fine, and each extra page is 25p.
Write It Your Way
Formal or friendly, it's your letter. Whatever you type is what gets printed.
Keep Proof
We email you a PDF copy of your letter. If you might need to show it arrived, choose Signed For or a tracked service.
