FAQs

Postage

How much is postage?

For all UK orders under £14.99 postage is £0.99, for all orders over £14.99 postage is £1.99. We have kept postage free for as long as possible but rising Royal Mail prices have made it too difficult this year!

When can I expect to receive my order?

For all orders we will send your letter using Royal Mail 1st class and it should arrive within 5 days from that date. (unless you have ordered before November – in which case all orders are being dispatched from November 1st). You will also receive a confirmation email when the letter has been dispatched.

Do you ship internationally?

No, unfortunately due to the amount of lost postage and time it takes to deliver around the world it has made it inefficient for us to send outside of the UK

What happens if my letter does not arrive?

On the rare occasion a letter gets lost in the post and hasn’t arrived after 5 days, please email us on [email protected] with your order number and we will get another one in the post right away.

How will Royal Mail Strikes effect my order’

There are no planned Royal Mail strikes in 2025, if this changes we will add information here and update our website accordingly!

Orders

How do I change my letter?

Your letter from Santa Claus is printed within hours of your order being placed. Please email [email protected] quoting your order reference number and what amends you need and if your Santa letter and certificate haven’t been printed, we will be able to make the changes.

Has my order been placed?
Once your order has been placed, you will received an order confirmation email containing your order reference number. Please check your junk or spam folder if it’s not in your inbox.
 
Is ordering from Real Santa Letters safe?

Absolutely! All data remains private and secure and all letters are printed and posted here in the UK!

 
When is the last order date in time for Christmas?

Please place your order before Friday the 19th December. We always encourage you to order at the earliest possible time to ensure safe delivery in time for Christmas.

Will the letter arrive in a separate envelope?

The letter and certificate will arrive in our ‘North Pole’ envelopes ,these are the envelopes as you see on our website. They will be addressed to your children who’s names are on the letter unless you say otherwise on the ‘notes’ when ordering.

I ordered more than 1 letter but I’ve only received part of my order?

We now send all letters in one envelope/package to ensure all orders arrive at the same time going to the same address. Please order your letters at the same time in order for us to send them in one envelope
