Over and above

We were looking forward to a member event at an English Heritage property, but an unforeseen family emergency prevented us from attending. I emailed EH to let them know that we couldn’t attend as a courtesy and they responded immediately with very kind words. How lovely in a world of automated replies to receive such a personal touch.

Highly recommended

An amazing location encapsulating almost two thousand years of history. From the Romans to Richard the Lionheart and to French prisoners and their dramatic efforts. Highly recommended.

Prompt response to email enquiry

I emailed a query about the dates on the car parking pass not matching my membership period and received a very prompt and helpful reply (five stars for that!)
I've only given four stars though, because really this information might easily have been communicated at the point of joining or on the website.

We’re sorry to hear about the confusion around the promotional code, Andrew. We understand how frustrating it is when the information provided doesn’t appear to match what you’ve received. We’d really like to look into this further and make sure the information is clear and consistent. I will now send you a message to get further details so we can investigate this for you.

Great Membership Scheme

Customer Services quickly understood my request and expedited it efficiently and accurately. We have loved every site we've visited and recommend the discounts we've had because we were members. Our kids have loved collecting badges for 3 years or more and the special activities they've taken part in. Well done English Heritage! Great Membership scheme ♥️
