Pixum is a very slow service

Pixum is a very slow service, It has been over a week and my passport photos still haven't arrived, they keep it vague by saying "a few days" but I would expect better. I have had to get other photos printed in the meantime. Wouldn't recommend this service.

Dear Hazel,

I am very sorry to hear, that your passport photos did not arrive in time. We are always trying to improve on our service!

On our website www.pixum.co.uk/service/delivery-times-at-pixum it says, that photos take about 1-2 working days in processing and production and then further 3-5 days in delivery. We always make sure to have your orders produced and packaged in as little time as possible, but are very sorry, when the delivery service takes a little longer than expected.


Thank you & kind regards,

Pixum UK

A great experience

A great experience! I ordered a bunch of photo prints with my phone, and Pixum didn't cut off any parts of the prints. I was so satisfied with the prints, that I ordered one of the photos in large as a canvas. It's BEAUTIFUL!

Pixum Photobooks are terrific value and great quality…

I've bought several Photobooks from Pixum and always found them really good. The software is straightforward to use but like many things it needs to be explored thoroughly to get the best out of it. There's loads of options available for creating different styles & content for many applications. It's easy to save and return to your book as often as necessary & once an order is placed the book materials & packaging supplied are excellent. Delivery is also very quick so all in all I can highly recommend Pixum.

Hi Alan,

we're really happy to hear from our longtime customers! We know, that it can be a bit much to have to go through a photo book software with that many editing options, but we also think, that it's better to offer too much, than too little. In that spirit, we are trying to improve our Pixum Photo World software all the time and look forward to helping you create more amazing Pixum Photo Books.

Thank you & kind regards,

Bad customer experience

I am really unhappy with the provided service, my package has not been delivered. It seems it was lost somewhere, company cannot provide information about the package. It is super hard to reach the customer service.

Excellent customer service

I had problems uploading 4 photo books, right before a 30% off deal finished at the end of March. I contacting customer services as 30% off the full cost of £600 I was pending was not insignificant! Customer Services responded within 24 hours of each of my (many) emails and kindly applied the 30% of each of the books as I ordered them, having paid the full price initially. I was delighted! The refunded discounts were paid within 7 days back onto my credit card. The books arrived within the 2-4 days they said they would, and met all my expectations!

I last used Pixum in 2014, so I must say I was surprised on coming onto Trust Pilot to see the poor experiences and reviews through 2015. All I can say is I think the must have improved, as my experience was excellent.

Dodgy Service but Acceptable Outcome

I ordered picture through the app and was unhappy with the varying sizes that arrived (I had ordered 6" x 4" but they didn't arrive like this)

After some disagreement with the customer service department they accepted that I had know way of knowing that they don't print to the size that you ask and rather to the size of the image you send (a bit weird because all the other photo companies I've used don't do this)

In the end, I got a full refund but it is taking some time the process.

Awful -still waiting

This has been an awful experience. NO replies when I email and no puzzle for Christmas. I ordered two others on the same day and have had them for more than a week.

The worst customer service ever

I have been a satisfied pixum custumor for many years, having created a dozen or so different photo books over the past years. But this time everything went wrong: first I had issues uploading my images. That should have given me a clue. Then I could not upload the book I created and on which I spent probably 100 hours. Pixum's technical team was incompetent and only an it-knowledgable friend was finally able to cut through pixum's technical mess and figure out what was wrong with their program. When finally, after 4 weeks of back and forth, the book was uploaded and I paid my 700 pounds ... the books never arrived ! I am now waiting for a further 4 weeks. The books were to be received within 4 days and did in the past, but not this time. I sent several requests to pixum to check and immediately receive computer generated responses that somebody will get to me that day, at the latest within 48 hours. What a joke ! As stated, that is all now going on for another 4 weeks and nobody cares. There is no response. I am done with pixum and some of the lousiest customer service and worst technical team i ever encountered on-line.

Pixum Website

I have had difficulties in the past with calendars (Vista on PC), you must log in to enure you don't lose your work. I couldn't get the software to work on the website and found that the best method is to download the photo-book software and do it on your PC. The products aren't cheap but are very good quality, although a couple of photo books had the images printed at a slight angle in the past. It's worth waiting for offers, which appear regularly, to reduce the cost. A friend now uses Lidl, which he thinks is very similar quality but much cheaper.

Good quality prints...fast!

WOW! I didn't expect a refund from an offer i'd missed. I'll certainly continue to use their services for future printing.

All correspondance was answered by a human not an automated response. This made dealing with a technical issue easy to resolve.

Excellent quality but customer service needs an overhaul

We all make mistakes and I made a mistake by sending an unedited print to Pixum for printing. The two photos I had on my desktop were similar and it was my fault that I clicked on the unedited one for sending. I noticed it immediately after I sent it and quickly emailed them to tell them of my mistake. I got an email back the next day to say once you send the order it cannot be cancelled. I would imagine local trading standards would have something to say about that. Fortunately, it was only 22 pence but it could have been a more expensive canvas etc. Therefore beware, make 100% sure you send the correct images or you will still be charged. Apart from that the quality of the product is very good

Excellent service

Ordered the prints on Saturday and they were delivered on Tuesday. Couldn't have been done any quicker. They were good quality and at a very reasonable price that was much cheaper than if I'd had them printed in town.
