'Lord' titles etc £19.95? Are they worth it?

[williamp]

I believe they simply change your firstname be deedpole. So if your name is Mr john david smith, you will now be Mr Lord david smith.

Make sense?

Barony titles are about £75k now, should have bought the one I was offered for £15k. Feck!

The 'Lord' titles are worthless and you cannot buy a proper 'lordship'.

We bought my departed mother a title for her bithday many years ago .
Had the ownership of a square mtr land in Caithness , title of lady, certificate of title and map of area .
Was always a laugh as mum was always known as 'Duchess'

Yeah,if you own land in Scotland (even a little bit) I think you are it's "laird"(forrin for Lord) so you can be the "Lord of 21a Salmond Terrace,Govan"!!

If you are an earl and get an OBE you can call yourself Earlobe.

I have seen a website online selling titles that you can buy for around £20. Has anyone ever bought one? What does it actually mean? Can it be used?

I have a few for sale. I'll give you a discount on Lord Lucan...

Some of us are the genuine article.

Scams like this just allow the fking plebs to think they are someone special. Bloody riff raff I say

I guess I have that 1 foot of land by Laphraoig, off to the registery office or wherever the place you change your name is then tomorrow!

The real thing has become a farce now, what with Lord Superspiv Sweetstuff and the bloody Red Baron Presclott.

Cheers chaps. I did Google it but came back with a right load of crap - I did wonder what the Institute of Safety in Technology and Research had to do with buying a title

[FredericRobinson]

We've got a bloke at work who bought himself one of these titles, he's a bit odd, obviously.

[northwest monkey]

Does he use it day to day?
