I was about to say that from another thread it appears that both Silverprint and AG have solved their communications/ordering issues then I saw Simon's posts.
Hopefully Simon's experience is now the exception. Mike |

Im sorry that we weren't open when you tried to visit. The notice on Facebook actually said we were closed for the bank holiday and open again as normal on the Tuesday. We are always closed for bank holidays, but we always list this on our website and social media. We never delete any comments, so I can only assume that it must have been a techincal glitch when posting. We never recieved your comment, which is why there was no response. Regards Silverprint Team |

I'm sorry but I dispute this, although I must correct myself. It was the Saturday of the Easter weekend, rather than the bank holiday Monday itself that you closed earlier than advertised. This was last year when you were open at the weekends.
You had put out a facebook post saying that you would be open til 4pm and the same time was displayed on your website. When I got their at 2.45 the store was shut. Having made a special trip so that I could use a student card to get a discount on what would have been a large order I was pretty annoyed to find the store closed, especially after I checked your website before leaving. When I checked the facebook post https://www.facebook.com/silverprint...50035865041918 you can see that it was edited several days later to amend the time to 2pm. Unfortunately this is ancient history in facebook terms so there was no way I was going to see an edited post three days later, especially when your website still said 4pm. I complained via your facebook page but it disappeared shortly afterwards. When I got home, I complained again via facebook and double checked that it had been posted. Again it was deleted shortly afterwards. I then complained through the contact webform on your website an received no reply. I understand that changing opening hours are your prerogative. But after you have publicised one set of opening hours I think it is only right that you correct your website and make a similar effort on social media to let people know that they have changed. It is also reasonable to expect people to be annoyed if they make a special trip only to find the store closed. Anyway the issue I had was more to do with the fact that you deleted the complaints from your FB page and didn't even reply to my emailed complaint. I felt this was shocking customer service and could easily have been averted with a simple 'Sorry for your wasted journey, we'll make sure we publicise any changes better next time'. I would love to support Silverprint, it is great to have such an amazing resource for the photographic community but I go elsewhere for my film supplies wherever possible now. |
