Spectrum Photographic Avis 

i would recommend this service to all my friends and colleagues

Spectrum has both an excellent website and a very efficient, high quality service. I was very pleased with my first Giclee prints from you and shall without hesitation use your company for future printing needs.

I have used Spectrum before and found them to be friendly, efficient, knowledgable and speedy. They listen and provide exactly what you need, explaining everything carefully without being patronising. I felt really welcome and came away with exactly what I'd hoped for plus something extra - a gorgeous high quality print as part of the service. Excellent value for money and a pleasure to do business with. :)

A great professional service with good choice of printing options, the security of the images during postage is top notch.

If you want a good job
done , not too expensive and quick , go to Spectrum .

The only thing I was not happy with was the postage charge.

My print cost about £4 and the postage was about £12.

Fast turnaround, even more so than I expected. Prints looked beautiful when they arrived. Definitely using them again!

Thought the quality of the paper and prints were very good. Have been recommended them by artists and they give good professional help

You know I have printed at the lab in my University with better results than what I received from Spectrum. I hate to say it but I was disappointed.

Good prompt service, helpfull staff, but c/would benefit from better couriers

i used Spectrum many many times and always was very happy with the quality of prints and canvas. fast turn around as well. would definitely recommend.

I went to Spectrum for the first time a couple of months ago and they were amazing. I will be getting all my printing done with them as they were extremely efficient and helpful. As an unexperienced student they were really patient and offered a lot of advice on how to get my image to reach its full potential. I tested many different papers and they also fixed the colors.
Great place to go !

Really polite helpful people. mounted my work quicker for me due to a short deadline, even gave me gloves to handle my work with. Excellent quality. Will definitely get all my prints done with spectrum

I have tried so many companies with a view to producing best quality giclee prints of my original oil paintings. Spectrum Photo have consistently achieved top quality prints for me. Their customer service is also excellent and the 48 hour turn-around for the online ordering service makes it really easy for me to produce prints quickly and efficiently.

I am so happy with the way my prints turned out with Spectrum. A real professional finish, perfect prints and lovely mounts. I was really impressed with how easy the website is to use. It's always nerve-racking placing orders online when you have to choose sizes, types etc, but this site makes it a straightforward process. When I visited Spectrum in person the staff were efficient and incredibly helpful, they couldn't do enough for me! I have also had prints delivered, which were on time and packaged so well, there was no worry of any damage. Spectrum always kept me well informed via email regarding my order, despatch dates, delivery dates etc.. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Excellent service, prompt and great quality prints.

With Spectrum you get superb quality printing, backed up by excellent service and delivered by a warm and friendly team of experts. What more could you ask for? OK, they pull out all the stops to ensure that tight deadlines are met where possible and have saved my skin on many occasions! Brilliant!

I've been using Spectrum to produce limited edition prints of my landscape work for over two years now and couldn't happier with the service they offer. Prints are fantastic quality and very consistent, their staff are always knowledgeable, helpful and courteous.

Over the years Spectrum have provided a large quantity of prints for my gallery. On the one occasion that we had technical issues they corrected the problem and reprinted the work very quickly.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Spectrum to anyone looking for a professional photographic print service.

Spectrum responded to a last minute request for two colour prints with grace and efficiency meeting the very short deadline and achieving a great quality. They dealt with this small order with the knowledge that it was significant to us, a great sign of exceptional customer service.

I used this service as I was printing for my assessment for my final major project, and thought it would be less stressful to get them to do my prints for my graduate exhibition as both deadlines were at the same time.

As the one star states, a total unacceptable experience. I was unhappy with the prints and was bewildered as to why they were so shoddy compared to prints received from [Link], and [Link] and to my own prints.

£174 plus a further £26 on courier costs (£4.99 in [Link]) spent for 'quality assured' I don't think so. they told me the quality assured is about the paper used and the mount not your print....So pretty much everything, they wrongfully quality assure, a false claim about their professional service indeed.

The company was recommended by [Link] so I thought they would be quite trust worthy, it amazed me how different the original files that I had sent were so different to every other print I had done myself and other company's managed to get it right and have much cheaper and more professional service where they actually care about their custom.

It really upset me after 4 emails so far and sending proof photographs, original files, the way that I have been spoken down to and constantly being repeated that I should have spent more money on test prints and getting a human being to be there whilst they were being printed instead of paying the cheaper option for a computer to do it...not cheap at all!!

As I have expressed to them that I know about the types of prints and colour profiling expected from a Photography graduate as I always have printed my own work, they still persisted to belittle me re-reading their service options and explaining types to me as if I couldn't read.

I ordered on the 6th of June and had my prints by the 12th and have ever since been trying to get my money back. In short, do not use this company, there are countless local printers out there and other much more professional printers that operate in a small company like this one.

Other universities advise NOT to use this company to their students[Link]. I myself should of stuck to the companies that I trust and have a much better turn around and passion for what they do and next time, I will definitely do it myself. I really did not want to have to give negative feedback, however my experience with this service is going further down hill.
