Their plugin is easy to use but most importantly their customer support is top notch. Highly recommend!

Facebook Feed plugin…

We have used the Facebook Feed plugin for a year and it's been pretty effective. In the middle of that, Facebook changed the token system that the plugin utilised, and we managed to re-authorise the plugin's access to our account using the Smash Balloon tech guide without having to contact support. I needed support this week for a separate issue, and the response was quick and "supportive".

The support staff was great to work with, multiple times over the years. I would highly suggest there service to have seamless social media integrations. Please note I run Highland Multimedia, been doing webstuff for 20+ years. These are good people.

Auto-renewal that couldn’t be cancelled, law treated as a “favor”

The card was charged for an auto-renewal that was not expected and could not be managed, because the account and renewal emails were linked to a wrong email address caused by a typing error at checkout. Support acknowledged that the email stored for the account was incorrect, yet still refused a full refund, hiding behind internal Terms and presenting a partial refund as a “one-time courtesy”, whereas respecting consumer law on subscriptions and renewals should not be treated as a favor. On top of that, the service was effectively unusable: despite paying, it was a struggle to make it work and more of an obstacle course than a useful tool, and support replies were reaching the incorrect inbox. This way of handling an auto-renewing online service is very disappointing.

Hi there,

I've reviewed the full details of your case, and I'm sorry for the frustration this has caused.

I understand that the misspelled email at checkout created difficulties with managing your account, and I can see how that combined with the auto-renewal made for a poor experience. Framing the partial refund as a "courtesy" in that context wasn't the right approach.

I've escalated this internally, and we'll be reaching out to you directly to resolve this.

Your free version is useless

Your free version is useless. It's impossible to test out the plugin before purchasing... Give a wide berth to this plugin!

Hey Terje,

We are getting caught up on some feedback left by users here - even though it has been a while. If you are willing we have sent you a request for some more information on how your experience with the free plugin was to see how we can improve on your (and others') experience.

Many thanks,
The Smash Balloon Team

Horrible plugin!!!! Never worked properly. I stopped trying to fix it within a month of paying for it.
They have so many fake reviews .
Today I went to cancel my subscription as my subscription ends Feb. 2nd. Of course it says that “you don’t need to do anything and it will automatically renew”. Nowhere does it allow you to cancel. It gives you the runaround and when you finally find the page that says cancel subscription it goes to an OOPS page. Oops it didn’t work.
Unethical! Shady! Thieves!
I have left three emails and waiting for response.

Plugin doesn't work as advertised and is not gdpr compliant, so I paid for a product I can't use.
Support doesn't seem to be doing anything, for the last two weeks they've just promised to "look into it".
Don't buy this - they focus on their sales page, not on their product.

Sadly this companies customer support has taken a turn for the worse. Their Facebook feed plug-in NO LONGER WORKS. We purchased a 5 site licence only 2 of which were being used. We can now not use any of them!! Their support agent 'Paolo' was completely disinterested in our request for a refund. They only wanted to credit our account, or use the funds on another product which we didn't require. Definitely won't be using Smash Balloon for anymore of our 350 websites.
