Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Good quality result.

The system took a bit of getting used to and I had to get close to the screen sometimes as things were small. Also, sometimes there were 'helpful' popups that covered what I wanted to do and the only way round them was to minimise the page on the photobook to tiny - more eye strain! The quality is very good though and I like the flexibility of being able to change things repeatedly and see what it looks like. The customer service when I got stuck was helpful but sometimes slow to respond. The final print quality was very good and delivery went fine although the delivery company sent me contradictory texts and incomplete information about how, where and when delivery could take place. It's good to have delivery to a locker but no one says that you only have 48 hours to get it then until it's too late and you've already booked. The books were a good price as long as you have an offer!

Overall a great product and service

The system is easy to use, I make annual photo books for our family. And also smaller books for friends after holidays - this year I made a mistake and only realised after I had ordered. I called as soon as I could and the customer services person was brilliant, helped me resolve the issue and I was most grateful. I do find the books expensive, and tend to wait until there is an offer code. Quality of the books is excellent and delivery is quick.

Terrible customer experience

I paid for express delivery to arrive before a certain date and it didn't so I was unable to take the gift on holiday with me.
The aftercare team were awful and blamed their carrier and offered no compensation for me needing to pay for DHL to send the package to follow me. They did not even refund my 'express delivery' fee. Disgusting. Never using them again. No customer care and a total lack of accountability of their customer proposition.

My go to photo book creation site

Being able to choose the method of creation automatically or doing it myself which is my personal preference. Easy to use platform after you have spent the time to understand it(just like any other digital platform).

Really easy to use

Really easy to use. It was easy to customize my calendar, and the entire process was very simple and straightforward. I had no issues at any stage.
Will definitely use in the future. The quality seemed great.

Photobox has started using some AI…

Photobox has started using some AI support company ‘Zendesk’ that’s incompetent. It emailed me to ask to verify my address via email because my package was ‘returned to the sender due to an invalid address.’ I responded as requested… a couple days later, another email asking again, I responded again… a couple days later it asked me to respond again or they’d close the ticket….? Went to the chat feature on their site and lucky me, AI again. My package had actually already been delivered. Anyway, I’m complaining because Photobox should give humans their jobs back instead of wasting the earth’s resources on nonsense like ‘Zendesk’. Not like the world’s on fire or anything 🙄

Hi Jess! Thank you for taking the time to write us a review on Trustpilot.

One star for this company is too much

One star for this company is too much.
My elderly parents sorted photos through photos for weeks for my brother's 60th birthday.
And I spent a day uploading and designing the photobook, paid express delivery and it was all scheduled to arrive in time for my brother's 60th.
It didn't arrive on time, or the next day or the day after that.
It arrived 4 days too late, party over, everyone back at work.
To top it all I gave them the opportunity to fix it, refund, voucher, apology. No they couldn't care less. Apparently if the company delivers within 5 days of the estimated date, they are within their rights.
Spent £54 to have a memory book delivered well after the event.
Appalling, arrogant outfit.

Shambolic customer services

Spent time organising a beautiful gift for family. Paid the extra for a quick delivery date (which was specified) only to find it hasn't even been picked up today...the day I paid for! Following an email....the reply was its NOT guaranteed....I am to give the 5 working days from now.....how outrageous is this...I chose the date and paid for it....but to get a smarmy reply asking me to wait it NOT what I paid for.
If it does arrive....eventually...I will not order again...don't pay for the quick delivery folks...its a shambles.
