Not what they claim.

Not what they claim.

The directions say "4 easy steps", this is not true in my setting up the USB. It also went out on the internet and loaded so many photos I never seen before. I called 4 times to get a refund, they promised to send return instruction and I never got them.

Lost in the post

I ordered my photo stick in November and as yet, it has not arrived. I contacted the company and Rachel has been extremely helpful and has organised a new photostick to be sent. I wish I had read the reviews before ordering. Have I wasted my money?

Hello, Pam.
Sorry to hear that your original package did not arrive. It must have been lost in transit. Your replacement package should be on the way to you. We try very hard to ship orders out the same day and DHL is shipping very quickly as well. If you did not get a tracking number, please reach out to our customer support department via email or Chat and one of our agents will be happy to assist you. We have sold millions of products and have satisfied customers world wide. Unfortunately, now and then our packages do get lost in foreign transit. If you have any questions, please let us know. We are happy to assist.

2nd chance.

Photostick arrived 28/12/21 and after reading instructions started to download but after about 20 mins it stopped working.Contacted the company by Email,and after discussing problem with Rep, the solution was to offer a free replacement.No problem or chew on just a straight forward replacement.Will wait with baited breath for new one to arrive.

I wished I looked at the reviews first before buying.
I am so over the moon with my purchased NOT. I was so excited to be getting this for Christmas but that is not going to happen. I contacted courier company and I even contacted this company who didn't want to know anything about it.Hey heads up for that. Am I been sarcastic I let you be the judge of that. But going by the reviews I now hope that I dont receive it in the 60 days as I now want a refund. I got other purchases delivered from USA no problems, apart from this one. Sad 😢

Hello, Kerry.
I am so sorry that you have not received your ThePhotoStick. It is a very busy time of year for the couriers with the Holiday season and all. We have been shipping packages out the same day for most orders and DHL is shipping very quickly as well. We have heard that some foreign Post Offices are behind in processing their incoming deliveries. If that is the case, your package might very well be held up at your local post office or customs office. If you reply to me with your order information, I will be happy to personally check into this for you. I will need your name, email address and address as they appear on the order along with your order number.

We have sold hundreds of thousands of ThePhotoSticks and have satisfied customers world wide. We take pride in customer satisfaction and do everything in our power to make things right when we hear of an issue. I apologize if you did not receive that level of customer service.

I hope to hear from you very soon so that I can personally assist you. You can reach me at debby@xtra-pc.com

Only a few files were saved

I followed instructions and files seemed to be loading onto the PhotoStick. Once complete, though, only a few files were on it and when the application was opened it said the stick was almost empty. Perhaps my operating system (macOS Mojave) is not compatible.

My photostick keeps stalling

My photostick keeps stalling before it's started processing anything. Actually it did process a few once but since then it finds all the duplicates and all the ones already saved but doesn't get as far as processing the ones found and there is no way to kickstart it back into action other than cancelling and restarting. Why does it stall? It's nowhere near full.

Order correction efficiently handled.

There was an error with my order - the confirmation stated 3 items and I had only ordered 2.
The "chat" was not operative so I sent an email (it was after hours). I was worried that the order would be processed before my email was read.
First thing the next day, I received an email reply from Rachel. She said she had corrected the order. I was impressed with the efficient and immediate handling of my problem by Rachel.
Rachel is an asset to this company, as I will not only do business with them again, but I will recommend them to friends and family.
Thanks again Rachel.

Well starting with my stupidity, things got complicated. I’m in the UK and was a little surprised when, after authorising payment, taxes were added resulting in a much higher price than I thought. I cancelled the order and my payment was reversed immediately. All good! I then ordered through what I thought was a UK site and guess what? Same company. Tried to cancel again was assured it was, but it wasn’t. Then I was informed that it had already been shipped so they couldn’t do anything. But to cut a short story long, After a long conversation with Rachel, she found a solution for me and a refund. Happy man now. Thank you Rachel.

Hello, Mr. Phipps.
Thank you very much for taking the time to post about your positive refund solution. It is unfortunate that the UK charges its citizens such a high VAT tax. We are pleased to know that the issue was resolved for you and that you are happy.

Five star customer service.

This review is for the customer service rather than the item. I ordered the picturestick Omni and paid with pay pal. I then realized that the regular picturestick would actually meet my needs. I contacted customer services to cancel. They said it had already been dispatched and couldn’t be cancelled, but they would refer it to a supervisor. Without further prompting, I was informed that it had been cancelled and my refund had been made.
What a relief. Definitely five star service.

I accidentally ordered two photo sticks when I only wanted one. I emailed the company about my error and they immediately changed the order and refunded the difference - even though it was my mistake. I couldn’t ask for better customer care.

Excellent Customer Service

My initial order was filled and shipped in a timely manner but then appeared to get lost in transit. Contacted Seller Customer Service who responded promptly to confirm package was lost in transit and agreed to send a replacement order. Replacement order also went missing and once again Customer Service promptly investigated and Fulfiilment Team agreed to process a refund. Customer Service was 1st Class and extremely helpful.
My emails were always answered promptly and I can't thank them enough for their assistance.
