Directfoto

I ordered from Directfoto just before Christmas after a search and found the price was very competitive. I learned later that the item I was ordering was being out of stock from many retailers. I did more search and came across some bad reviews of Directfoto. I started to get worried I even sent a couple of emails to them and I had no answer.

I opened an account to arrange for some digital prints, got redirected to a different site for payment and then couldn't get back to Directfoto to finalise the order. Needless to say there was no problem with them taking my money! When I tried to log in to my account to check if the order had somehow miraculously gone through I found that my account didn't even exist. I emailed customer service and was told to copy my photos to a CD and mail it to them. I emailed back that this wasn't good enough as it ...  Read the complete review

Order was delivered short. Delivery of the remainder was promised, but wasn't received.
