Totally ignored.

Went into the Torquay branch today, sales associate was sat behind the counter looking at a computer screen, she was sat side on so would have been able to see me. A gentleman was walking the few steps between the computer screen and a large printer and engaging with the sales associate, he saw me enter and saw me at the counter, I wasn't sure if he was a customer or friend of the sales associate or both. I could see that the sales associate was inputting on the computer in order for the printer to continue so i didn't like to interrupt and I continue to wait quietly, after a few minutes I make a noise to try and make the sales associate aware of my presence, nothing!!! This continues for several minutes and still the sales associate doesn't acknowledge my presence. I couldn't be bothered to be wait any longer without acknowledgement so I left. Maybe I should have been more forthright???

Glasgow

Glasgow. The staff member I spoke to was extremely rude, impatient and generally unpleasant (very like the manager, who I've dealt with on a previous occasion.) I will not be going back into this shop again unless it has a complete change of staff! Unless you are a complete expert in their machines, know exactly what you are doing, etc & can avoid talking to the staff, really don't bother!

Snappy snaps Edgware

I had a great experience at snappy snaps Edgware. I went to do a photoshoot with quite a distinct concept in mind. Eve, my photographer was absolutely amazing!!

She not only matched my vibe but also understood the concept I was going for to such a degree that we were able to mould and shape our vision of the final product during the shoot.

She is kind, understanding and an amazing energy to be around, especially if you aren’t as comfortable in front of a camera or have a specific vision for your photos.

I love my pictures so much and I’m so so happy!! She completely captured my vision and executed it to perfection! She Photoshopped the floor to completely change the background and vibe of the images and even added text to it.

I’m so glad that she was my photographer, I cannot recommend her enough!! 🩷🩷

They don't know how to do their job

They don't know the resolution and the correct specification needed from an organization especially for US visa, even though I explain them 100 times how it must be, but they again did it in a way they want...
The worst part is, they are insist of saying that they make the correction but still the picture was wrong, and I was shock when I came home and check the digital specification of the picture they provided...

Thank you for your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and the difficulties you faced in getting the correct photo specification for your US visa. Meeting official requirements is extremely important, and it’s clear we fell short in this instance.

If you could please email our customer care team with your full name, the branch visited, and a copy of the photo provided, we’ll investigate this further and work to put things right for you.

I am shocked at the prices of film charged by Snappy Snaps Garrick Street (Covent Garden), London. They charged me £22.00 for a single Ilford XP2 Super 400 that sells for £25.94 for a pack of 2 on Amazon and £20 for a Harman Phoenix 200 Colour roll that is available for £26.87 for 2 on Amazon!!! Gives me reason to avoid them in future - for sure.

Great restoration

Amazing job on a damaged photo we had from our family about 100 years ago. Restored it beautifully after being water damaged.

Excellent local resource

I have used the Chiswick store on a number of occasions over the last year and have been super impressed. Someone is always on hand to help and staff members are knowledgeable and friendly, as well as patient and supportive when required. Special thanks to Anthony and Mike for most recently going the extra mile.

They have put the price of a uk passport picture up to 16 pounds this is extortionate they used to be 5 pounds. Boycott these greedy people. They say the price hike is for quality and service? All the staff are d.e.i hires who have no interest in helping and its a digital photo? As a nation we must stop allowing these corporations to take advantage of us it was 12 pounds a year ago and 6 pounds before that.

Beautiful Customer Service

I got in touch with Snappy Snaps to help with an affirmations card I wanted to create for my birthday. I spoke with Sue at the Wandsworth branch, and she was incredibly helpful—she provided all the details I needed and went ahead with the printing. I picked it up today, and I was so happy with the quality.

This is what brilliant customer service looks like. Thank you so much, Sue—you are truly a star!

Expensive and not customer focussed

I've used other Snappy Snaps shops in London and I cannot fault the results of my colour film developing and scanning from the Victoria branch. But, they are considerably more expensive than other central London branches, I had to wait longer than usual for my scans and the customer service was a bit 'off'. I will revert to the Covent Garden branch in future.

Hi there,

We’re really sorry to hear you weren’t happy with the photo quality at our Newbury branch. That’s certainly not the standard we aim for.

I’ve used Snappy Snaps several times now, and they never disappoint. The staff are always friendly, helpful, and really knowledgeable, whether I’m printing photos, getting passport pictures taken, or ordering a custom gift. The quality of the prints is outstanding, and the turnaround time is quick even for more personalised items.
i had some questionable concerns about the young curly hired lady she had a loud amount of attitude and sass it put me off a little i wont lie but still a decent place.

Having used Snappy Snaps for numerous years i feel that i should share my experience.
