Sending a fax

Options
Ok, might be a daft question but I need to send a fax. I don't know anyone with a fax machine and can't send from work because we're facing redundancies and it's literally more than my job's worth.
I have to fax an original document so can't use an 'e-mail' fax.
Does anyone know where there is a fax service for example Staples or somewhere?

  • There is no determination between an email faxing service and a normal fax machine. You don't ever send the original document only a copy!

    Either scan your original document and email it or visit your local library as they usually have a fax facility available for a small fee.

    Lots of corner shops and small local "walk-in" businesses have fax services. They might well charge you a quid a page, tho'.

    Even if they don't actually offer the service, they will probably be happy to do you over for a 500% margin if you ask them nicely!

    you should be able to pick up an old modem with fax capability for under £10 on ebay. I paid £12, 7 years ago :)
