“Thank you very much for my framed photos - the quality is excellent and I 'was over the moon' when I first saw them and of how well they all turned out. The photos are certainly a talking point of days gone by and the memories they bring back. And thank you so much for having the photos available, and I will order more framed photos in the future of Swanley.

“Hello lovely people, Oh my god! My frame arrived! It is my favourite picture of Walton on the naze village. I was so excited to see the picture amongst your selection and promised myself a frame. I fell in love with the village on holiday and consequently chose to travel from London to get married there. This item has made me soooo happy. A perfect picture, perfectly made to remind me of a perfect wedding day. This is the best present my hubby has bought for me. I am enjoying the e-cards and the free downloaded book. I would like to see you make a frame that you can choose to put more than one picture in. Thank you so much for your lovely work. See you soon. I'm already choosing my next items. You are a wonderful company!”

“I have just received my order. I can not express how pleased I am with it, I absolutely love it.
The house in the photo is now my home which is currently being renovated, so to find a photo of it from years gone by is a fabulous find. Thank you so much. It will be displayed with much love in our living room. Kindest regards to you all.”

“It is a long time since I dealt with a company as efficient as yours. I congratulate you on the speed and the hassle free way in which you dealt with a picture I received that had been bent in the post. The customer service team answering the telephone have been trained very well and were polite and courteous. What really sealed the icing on the cake was to receive a replacement within 5 days. Congratulations on running a well organised, customer focused company, a real rarity in today's world”

“Thank you very much for the excellent, prompt service and delivery of my order. It's a gift for my father's 94th birthday next month, hence the search for a photograph of somewhere in Plymouth (he was born there and always lived there) from the year 1925. I am sure he is going to be delighted with the gift; it's always so difficult to find something "different" for a gift when somebody has attained that age and has everything! Much appreciated.”
Added 16th March 2011
“I am just writing to thank you for a wonderful service. I received my poster size prints yesterday and I am delighted with them. The service I have received has been first class. The quality of the prints is second to none. I am extremely happy with them.
In this day and age people just don't take the time to say thankyou and let other people know that they appreciate the service they have been given, hence this email.
Once again a very BIG THANK YOU to all”

Lovely quality for a photo taken 100 years ago
“Wasn't sure how good the quality from a 100 year old neg would be, but the photo exceeded my expectations. Mounting and frame looked nice quality as well. The perspex was hard to differentiate from glass, apart from weight, so was an acceptable alternative. Arrived in good time and well packed. All in all very pleased and would recommend”

“I ordered my picture last Friday. I appreciated this was very likely to miss the Christmas delivery deadline. Imagine my shock and delight when my order was delivered today (Tuesday). This is outstanding service. The picture was a special Christmas gift for a relative. It featured a striking image of my relative's maternal grandfather as a teenager in 1910. A remarkable find from a remarkable collection. Thank you Francis Frith people.”
