The ease of renewing a previous order is comforting. When the USPS delayed or lost the order Bradford quickly responded to our plight and replaced the lost order. Kudos!!

I like the check selections, but way too much on the upsell! Trying to push too much on the customer. Did not like that so I said no to anything additional. S&H high also

It's fairly easy to order checks online but costs a lot to get ID protection and secure mailing. I like that you can pick your checks' theme and font.

Customer service was outstanding. My shipment of checks was undelivered and lost. They rapidly traced the shipment and determined it was best to replace the order and they made a second shipment.

The web site explained just how things would happen in terms of shipping, how to order, ect. and the company delivered on what to expect.

Easy to navigate and amazing variety of designs. Would be better to show shipping cost up front as it is a shocker.

Large selection of checks

Large selection of checks. Doesn't specify the number per pack. Then I was bombarded with additional charges and offers to join to save money. I hate that...especially when they look like spam.
