“Do not order a Calendar from this company. I have now received 20 calendars each without a grid. Today's package was a replacement after I complained about the first 10 I ordered which came without a grid. I was assured that the second shipment was going to be checked by a human being? I shall not be ordering from Photobox again.”

“The best customer assistance I have encountered anywhere ! It was getting close to Christmas and a personalised calendar I was expecting hadn't arrived. I asked when I might expect to receive it to be told it had been sent. To my surprise the next day it did arrive BUT rather than leave it there they reacted to my predicament after my call and immediately send another —- and it arrived on time for Christmas. This company takes customer satisfaction to another level and has a customer for life ! Oh and by the way making a personalised A5 calendar for someone’s kitchen is a perfect Christmas present !”

“Horrendous service - My items never even arrived, the courier will only speak to the sender, the only way to contact Photobox is through email and they never respond. Not even an opportunity to raise an issue, let alone get your money back or the item you paid for! Terrible, terrible service.”

“Absolutely the worst product I have ever received. Picture was at a skewed angle on the frame and was over one side and not to edge on other side. Print quality was awful. Telephoned them but they refused to look into it or offer a replacement.”

“I was disgusted and upset of the result of my photo. You cannot even see my late dogs head, it's awful. Complete waste of money. I have contacted you twice and had no response.”

“Wish I read these reviews before buying credit. The I've created books for 10 years and enjoyed the experience and results. NOT ANY MORE the new system is clunky, dumbed down and unworkable. Eg. Text boxes only have one line, working from an album to create a book, the images are so blurred I have to refer back to originals on the pc. I could go on. Searching for a new supplier for the next book.”

“Never purchase from this crowd. Their systems are poor and they let you down from woe to go”

“Warning - just don't use them. I completed my project and had repeatedly saved the project but once I got to checkout it did not exist with no record of it anywhere. Unbelievable, a waste of time and irritating. Don't risk it. Don't use PhotoBox.”

“Please try to AVOID using PHOTOBOX Ordered few ( 7) enlarged photo prints. Waited 2/52 and yet to receive them. After few e mails back and forth managed to get the refund. Prints were supposed to be delivered by HEMES which had not updated tracking status after first few days.No apology no sense of customer care at all.”

“Woeful customer service. Ordered a 49 piece puzzle for my niece and it was tiny! The pieces were for a 300 piece puzzle as I had seen the sizes previously on a box I had got before. After many emails they refunded the jigsaw but not the £6.99 postage. I had wanted a larger piece puzzle but they wouldn't do that either. Terrible company.”

“Placed order on August 4th. After 5 phone calls and three attempts by them to reprint I still have no photo book! Utterly hopeless. Nothing Customer Services can do but 'raise a request with the printing team' which they seem to do each time I call but never get a response from that team so nothing ever gets printed. At one point was told that I 'was not alone' in having this issue and suspect they are having issues with photo books across the board. I would not use them it takes a long time on your part to produce a photo book so when they are incapable of printing it then you will just become and upset and frustrated like I have”

“Shocking new studio 'upgrade' , have been a loyal customer for over 10 years, but the new studio is clumsy and rigid. Can't use text properly. Don't understand why the end users were not consulted when changes were made. Such a downgrade.”

“I have used Photobox for many years and am now on the verge of giving up. The new format is awful - the text boxes are unworkable and it's more hassle than it is worth. I miss the old format where making a phonebook was a pleasure.”

“The new style creation studio is a DISASTER. Totally frustrating to work with compared to the previous one. Very limited. So many of the useful features no longer exist. I have been a customer of Photobox for several years but am now looking elsewhere.”

“I have been making family albums with photobox for nearly 13 years and always been happy with them however they have changed their creation studio and now it is completely unworkable. All the decent layouts have gone, meaning you have to manually change every single grey photo box on each page but there are no ruler guides to help so you no idea if everything is equal. I have been waiting since December to see if they will improve anything but nothing has changed and every time I ask via live chat I get fobbed off with excuses. I have been a loyal customer to photobox but will now be looking to make my albums elsewhere.”

“New creation studio is RUBBISH! maximum of 5 photos per page, cannot do double page spread, often have to go in and adjust template before you can drag more than one picture to a page, no template for text formatting to apply to whole book, cannot drag & resize text boxes, no auto save function ..... I could go on but would rather spend the time finding a decent photobook company which is rather a shame after having made over 20 different books with Photobox”

“Will never use Photobox again. Ordered a square little memories book. The pictures were of my dog who has just passed away. I didn’t expect to see front cover of his chest and no head. 4 other pictures were the same. Surely all pictures should be checked before printing there must be a person who presses the button to print so why not check pictures first. No more online photos for me would rather spend extra and go to high street shop. Also the quality of the pictures were not very good. I would highly recommend NOT to use photobox.”
