Jessops Reviews

Last week I was looking to buy a charger for my Nokia Coolpix camera - it's one of the most prevalent point-and-shoots today, so I didn't expect to have many issues with getting it from Jessops. How little I knew! Firstly, it took me about 5 minutes to get the attention of someone in the store. Admittedly, I had thought I might be able ...  Read the complete review

Was in Jessops today with my dad as he is looking for a digital SLR. The first thing that immediately became apparent was the level of customer service in this particular shop. It was the branch on Sauchiehall St, Glasgow. Their customer service was fantastic! All to often you walk into a shop and are ignored by the sales staff and when you do ask ...  Read the complete review

Buying a new camera these days can be a bit of an ordeal due to the vast amount of models on the market to choose from - and once you've chosen your shooter, where is the best place to buy it from?... Jessops?... maybe not. Jessops is currently the largest photographic retail outlet in the UK with over two hundred stores nationwide. ...  Read the complete review

I purchased a camera from Jessops as it was on offer. The Jessops store is only about 2 miles away from me and after having seen it on the website reduced I thought I would go ahead and buy it. They have an option where you can collect in store but as delivery was free anyway I just went ahead and got it delivered. The camera arrived the next day ...  Read the complete review

Jessops, the UK's largest photographic retailer, recently reported losses of almost £50 million after the digital camera market had its first slowdown in years and after the closure of 80 of its stores, they should be upping their game. I spent quite some time browsing the shop and not one of the staff thought it worth asking if they could ...  Read the complete review

As I have recently opened up my own photography business I have come to rely on Jessops to supply me with all the little things that other professional camera shops dont have in stock. I purchased my start up camera set for my business there and was thrilled when I realised the discount I had saved through their bundle scheme. Basically with the ...  Read the complete review

--- History --- Seemingly one of few photography shops that are still in the high street, Jessops was founded in 1935 as a specialist photographic shop. The shop offers pretty much anything and everything the budding photographer, be they amateur or professional, can want. Many of the branches have labs within them that offer ...  Read the complete review

I am really into photography and am often popping into various photographic stores to see what is on offer or what new cameras and equipment they have in stock. I have a small Jessops store near to where I live and also a larger one in another nearby town. I took my camera in to be repaired as there was a problem with the memory card ...  Read the complete review

I am writing a review of this camera and photo shop because I used it to get some digital prints developed. I signed up to snapfish.com as they were advertising free first 30 prints. I uploaded my photos, chose my nearest Jessops store for them to be sent to (for free) and went and collected them on the day that it advised me ...  Read the complete review

Having received an e-mail from Jessops for 50 free prints I decided to give them a try. I went onto their website and uploaded the photos onto my account that I wanted to print which was very simple to do. I then paid for the postage (£1.49) and the photos had to upload following payment. This took quite a while to do, ...  Read the complete review

I recently went through the very painful process of using Jessops reserve and collect facility on their website. Originally it was my intention to purchase my new Canon Powershot A650is from my local store in Southampton but to my surprise this camera was over £50 cheaper online and as I didn't want to pay for postage I used Jessops reserve and ...  Read the complete review

To many, Jessops is THE place to shop for all your camera needs. For me though, it is THE place that I will try to avoid at all costs if I'm wanting to buy any new camera equipment. My reasons are few and simple and have occurred on far too many occasions for them to warrant being called 'the odd slip up' or 'just a bad ...  Read the complete review

To sum up the following review: I like Jessops. They are a specialist shop and that shows. If you want to buy a camera by making a traditional face to face, over counter purchase, rather than over the internet, Jessops would be the ones I would go to every time. Where as you might go to a shop like Dixons, Jessops are the ones with ...  Read the complete review

One of the most important aspects of a high street shop is the way in which it treats its customers. Jessops always stands out in my mind because of the way in which the staff went out of their way to help me under difficult circumstances. I shall relate my experience, though what impresses me is that the service they offer today is every bit as ...  Read the complete review

I'm actually employed by jessops, I've now worked in 2 of their stores, so I thought I'd clear a few issues some people may be having. Customer service is a must for all employees, it's not just something expected it's what staff want as well, it's a lot nicer being nice to customers. If their are any problems we often go to great ...  Read the complete review

When I bought a digital camera I had done some research and knew what style of camera I wanted, what I wanted it to do, and how much I would want to spend. I went into several shops before Jessops (in Carlisle) and was ignored in one. One seemed determined to sell me a camera which was clearly of a kind which I had said I didn't want ...  Read the complete review

I had not really ever even thought about purchasing anything from Jessops, apart from maybe some prints from my old film camera. I had been looking to go digital for a while now, but as I am really a point-and-shoot type of user, all I wanted for a camera to be was very small, an optical zoom and with a decent photo quality. I had ...  Read the complete review

This is in respect of an enlargement from a standard-sized print to an A1 poster that was performed by the Cherry Street branch of Jessop's in Birmingham. I initially read their Website to find out what formats they could accept pictures in. Having read up that they accept JPEG images on floppy disk, I transferred the photo from my ...  Read the complete review

I took 7 films into Jessops in Oxford's High Street. I took them in on Saturday and went to pick them up the following Tuesday. They had given them away to somebody else without the thought of the normal ticket system. I still have the tickets and numbers. Their staff have not been at all helpfull. Even head office dont care and come up with ...  Read the complete review
