It is a little nerve wracking sending all memories in a box... they were great tracking and keeping me updated every step. So amazing seeing all the old movies on digital... love the memories.

A Time Saver

The time savings and relief from a longtime burden of responsibility for maintaining all this for friends and family.

This is an important service if you can…

This is an important service if you can afford it. Ended up paying an average of $10 per transfer. Highly recommend that you call them and verify the best price you can get. Legacy Boxes are sold through HSN and probably other retailers, and there is usually a sale going on somewhere.
There was a glitch in their customer service in dealing with my orders which unnessarily cost me an additional $40, but the reason they lost a star in this review is because many of the processed videos had huge blank endings. I have to edit the dead space out individually, which is costing a great deal of time.
Nevertheless, i'm recommending Legacy Box - but there is room for improvement.

I was so pleased to recieve the results. I had hoped my 94 year old mother would have been able to HEAR AND UNDERSTAND more of the Audio tape, but even with the new head phones, she wasn't able to recognize the voices although I knew who the voices belonged to. But the movies took her back on a sentimental journey to a good time in her life; back to Germany to spend time with her family in Munich when dad was stationed there in his military career.
Thank you! Marie Sampson

I've yet to receive the order but my past and current experience is that this company has a quick turn around and the order and even the process to fulfill and place tapes and videos inside the box is efficient. Much appreciated.

Trusted and safe

I know my items are safe, and will be processed professionally. My items are returned in excellent condition and they give me the opportunity to send more for half the price savings. I have sent in films from my parents estate that were really old and I had no idea what was on them. I'm very thankful.

Impressive process

I appreciated being kept up to date on every step with my precious videos of my children growing up. I felt at ease and was very impressed with the process. Everything was so neat and organized too.

Special gift for my aunt’s 90th birthday

This was my third great experience. LegacyBox (very quickly) digitized my aunt’s film from the 1960s/1970s and despite the age and poor original quality, the resulting files are just what we hoped for. She will love seeing this footage of her world travels and family; it will be a wonderful 90th birthday gift!

Capturing Memories

This is the second time I’ve used Legacy Box and my experience was just as good as my first. This time, I had an audio tape converted for a friend’s birthday gift. The tape is from a 1983 concert she attended in Colorado. She is going to be over the moon when she hears it. :) Also, I moved to a different state and had to change my address as Legacy Box was preparing my shipment, and your customer service department fixed it without an issue. Thank you so very much for everything you do.

You made everything from start to finish a breeze. You kept me well informed every step of the way and you made me feel it ease, sending all my films and videotapes to you.

Once I was done with their service they continued to charge me monthly for a worthless, overpriced service.

I think this company uses deceitful practices to maximize their revenue. I will never use them again.

We’re sorry to hear you’re frustrated with the cloud membership. We do want to clarify that the membership is not a hidden or automatic charge after the digitization service. The membership is clearly disclosed throughout our website and during checkout, including a statement that customers understand they are signing up for a membership when placing their order.

We also send multiple email reminders notifying customers of an upcoming membership charge, giving them an opportunity to cancel before the renewal if they no longer wish to continue. Memberships can also be canceled directly through the Legacybox portal.

We understand that the membership may not be something every customer wants or needs, but we want to assure you that the terms and renewal notifications are clearly communicated. If you believe you were charged after canceling or have questions about a specific charge, please reach out to our support team with your order information so we can review your account and help.

**⭐ 1 STAR

**⭐ 1 STAR — I WOULD NEVER TRUST LEGACYBOX WITH MY FAMILY MEMORIES AGAIN**

My experience with Legacybox has been one of the worst customer-service experiences I have had in years.

Legacybox bombarded me with promotional emails advertising roughly **$9 tapes**. I received so many of these offers it became almost comical. Yet once they had my irreplaceable original media in their possession, suddenly the tapes I sent didn't qualify for the promotional pricing. Instead, I was told additional tapes would be **$12 each** because Legacybox considers them “additional items” rather than items eligible for the promotion. This turned into $20 tapes after all the hidden fees.

That's a distinction they seem perfectly capable of explaining **after they have your property.**

But the pricing dispute isn't even the worst part.

When I became fed up and told Legacybox to return my original media, their customer service informed me that my materials had already been digitized and that they would return my originals **after I paid the disputed additional charges.**

That is astonishing.

These aren't replaceable products sitting in an Amazon warehouse. These are **irreplaceable family memories and original recordings** that customers send to Legacybox because they're trusting the company to safeguard them.

And don't expect customer service to actually solve a problem. My experience has been an endless parade of canned, scripted responses that repeat company policy while seemingly ignoring the substance of what the customer is saying. Trying to get someone to exercise common sense or take ownership of the situation has been unbelievably frustrating.

The most infuriating part is that we're arguing over a relatively small difference in per-tape pricing. A competent customer-service department could have resolved this in minutes. Instead, Legacybox has turned it into a dispute over pricing, transparency, customer service, and now the return of my original property.

**If you're considering Legacybox, my recommendation is simple: DON'T.**

There are plenty of businesses that digitize old family media. Find one where you can speak to an actual human being who has the authority to solve a problem—and where you won't have to argue about getting your own irreplaceable property returned.

I regret choosing Legacybox, I would never use them again, and based on my experience I absolutely cannot recommend them.

Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. We’re genuinely sorry for the frustration you’ve experienced, and we understand how important it is to feel confident when sending us irreplaceable family memories.

We would like to clarify the pricing mentioned in your review. Additional items are priced at $12 per item, plus applicable tax, and are not eligible for promotional pricing or promotional matches. This pricing is clearly listed on each additional-item sticker included with the kit so customers can see the cost before sending those items in. There are also no additional or hidden fees added to the $12 item price.

That said, we understand your concerns regarding the communication you received and would like the opportunity to review your specific order and see if there is anything we can do to address your experience. Please reach out to our support team at questions@legacybox.com with your order number and reference this review so we can take a closer look at everything together.

We appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention and the opportunity to help.
