Review of Tempest Photography


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

1,262 people can't be wrong

65% or reviewers give 1 star & reading them, it's clear they fall into one of two categories. Either the quality of the photo or the extortionate pricing for the weird combination of photos offered. This time around, I'm OK with the quality, but once again it's impossible to buy exactly what I want. Having 'split'families must be a God-send to Tempest, as it's impossible to get two, large portraits. And who really wants passport size photos!?

It's about time schools fought back and broke this monopoly.

Tempest, please don't copy & paste your usual reply as I'm not interested.

Hello Richard, thank you for sharing your feedback.

We understand that school photography is a personal and important purchase, and we’re sorry to hear that you were disappointed with the experience again.

We offer an extensive range of multipacks and digital downloads to suit all pockets – and these can be duplicated or removed however you please on our website. Some of our products for new-intake and leavers are done as a combination of the individual portrait and year group. If you would like order anything that is not offered online, our Direct Order team may be able to help. Please call on 01736 751555 (opt. 3, Mon-Fri 8:15am-4:15pm) where an advisor should be able to help you further.

Tempest Photography provides schools and PTAs with an excellent fundraising opportunity through a sliding commission on every photo sold. This commission helps support school programs and resources. It could be worthwhile to reach out to your school to see if parents are taking advantage of our more affordable photo options.

We do appreciate your comments and will share this with our management team.

Kind regards, Olly.

Top class!

I have no hesitation in recommending Lynden. He developed a thoughtful design after reviewing multiple options with me, and delivered the project on time with minimal disruption. I look forward to working with him again as I continue my home renovations.”

Never great quality but you feel duty-bound to buy

Never great quality but you feel duty-bound to buy them for the memories. The most random combinations of order options ensures that it'll cost you more than necessary and it's never possible to get exactly what you need. £17 for a single 7" x 5.5" print is extortionate.

Hello Richard, thank you for your review.

We do offer an extensive range of various products, including multi-image packs and electronic downloads. I am sorry to read that from the selection available, there is not something which is exactly what you are looking for. We introduce new items on a regular basis, so hopefully there will be a product available in the future that meets your requirements.

Kind regards, Olly.

Review of Piron Online


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

As others have discovered - DO NOT DEAL

As others have discovered, this company do not pay their suppliers. Court action started & judgement awarded but very little hope of receiving any money. No longer at Holmbush Potteries Estate although this is the address that Companies House hold for them. Now list two addresses on their website, one with an incorrect postcode. Mistake of intentional deceit? Never answer the phone.

Highly Recommend!

As a growing business, the incidences of needing clear, straightforward & trustworthy HR advice is something we weren't prepared for or possessed the necessary skill set for. Pennine HR advised and assisted my company in putting the right processes in place and now fulfil all our HR needs admirably!

Pennine HR are always at the end of the phone or email to provide the advice & support when we need it. I highly recommend speaking to Steve and his team today!

Dishwasher quick fix...

Phil was our engineer, who was pleasant & polite. Quickly diagnosed the issue with our dishwasher; blocked pipe, which was quickly cleared. Easy when you know how! Not the cheapest, but I guess it's not just about having the right hammer, it's knowing where to tap!

Spoken to just about everyone at Card Saver!

Seem to have spoken to just about every member of staff but seem to be sorted now. Time will tell. Star so far was Liz on Technical help who went the extra mile to assist with set up. Thanks.

Review of Unlock Instantly


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

I find it hard to believe . . . .

I find it hard to believe all the five-star reviews from 1-review users, with words like, “good, Fantastic, reliable etc.

No contact details on website, no phone number, no reply to emails. AVOID!

Review of Origin Broadband UK


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Without doubt the worst experience EVER.

Without doubt, THE worst experience I've had when dealing with ANY company. Every step of the process is littered with errors, lies, broken promises & illegal activity. By illegal, I refer to their practise of reinstating cancelled Direct Debits. It would seem I am not the only one to have had this happen to.

Do yourself a favour and avoid at all costs (because it will cost you dearly).
