Shrewsbury Store

Shrewsbury Store - Went into the store with a problem with a camera that had been repaired by Jessops.
Despite being very busy, Michael looked into the matter very calmly, and called the service centre. The service centre agent guided Michael through a way of correcting the problem (the Service Centre had failed to take the cameral out of 'Service Mode.'
I wish to record the fact that Michael provided outstanding service and was very polite and understanding from the outset.
Michael should be given an award or recompense by the Management!

UPDATE: 21/4/26
Jessops have replied and made the standard response. This indicates they havent actually read my comments. I did not get rejected by Klarna. I rejected them owing to excessive information gathering.
End of update

All but impossible to use their Interest
free offer with Klarna. They want way, way too much information. Ridiculouse. I am an existing customer with both Jessops and Klarna and still they wanted a payment up front. Connection to my bank account for 30 days!!!? and passport and selfie. They may want more but I stopped at that point.

Dear Lawrence,

Thank you for your feedback - we appreciate your comments on using Klarna. We partner with Klarna to give our customers more financial flexibility however Jessops do not have control over the checks and regulations required to enter into a financial agreement with Klarna.

We hope we can continue to assist you in the future.

The assistant went the extra mile

The assistant went the extra mile in identifying suitable cameras for myself and my wife. One wasn't in stock at the shop and expected that I would have to order it online but when she found out they could do it for us the process was completed. The courier company confirmed they had been instructed almost by return. Great service.

Amazing service

Amazing service. I ordered the films on a Friday afternoon, & they arrived the next morning. Less than 24 hours from order to delivery, & on a Saturday no less! At no extra charge! Unbelievable. My late father-in-law was a professional photographer, & he always used Jessops, saying their customer service was fantastic. Looks like things haven't changed, & as my child takes up the family tradition of film photography, another generation gets to experience the joy of Jessops. Thanks guys.

Beyond Excellent

The two people I dealt with at Jessops York were friendly and helpful. I paid my deposit and the lens was sent for checking and servicing. The lens was returned within a week fully operational after a firmware update and cleaning/checking. There was no additional charge beyond the deposit. I cannot praise the team there enough. Excellent!

I nipped into the store as I’m looking for a mirrorless camera

I nipped into the store as I’m looking to upgrade my camera and I was a bit unsure if I wanted to go ahead and purchase a mirrorless camera and I met a lovely lady called Jo and the service she offered was superb. She really went in to great detail of why it was better option. She even let have a look of the equipment that I wanted to be sure that is what I wanted. Her knowledge and her kindness was absolutely wonderful. She talked me through the steps of how to go on purchasing and trading my old camera in. Honestly 10/10 service. Will be going back and making that purchase

Poor service

Poor service. No email received following passport photos. Left 3 separate voicemails with no response. Contacted their customer service who had been in touch with the store and informed that i had to go back to the store for my email. I visited the store to be told all information in any email is already on the photo and should have been told this. I finally got my email. No apology for my time wasted. I'm disappointed at lack of acknowledement and apalling care and service. After using this store several times i will would avoid and never use again.

Dear Ash,

Thank you for your feedback, we really value you sharing your experience and we sincerely apologise for issue.

There was a mix up between our CS team and our Leeds store team as they were right, you were able to use the printed version you were given to apply for your passport with the digital code provided. This was an honest mistake by our CS team however we completely understand the inconvenience and frustration caused by this.

As an apology and recognition of the error, we have refunded 50% of your order.
