Hi David, thank you so much for leaving us a review. Customer feedback is invaluable for us to perfect our service, so I can't thank you enough for giving us this opportunity. I've just done a little research into your order to see what happened, and where things might be improvable for your next order. I can see that you placed your order at 4.35pm on Thursday afternoon. Unfortunately this was a tad too late in the day to make our UPS collection that day. Generally we advise that orders placed before about 1pm or 2pm can still go out same day. I can see we packaged your order as a priority first thing the morning after, and that it was all labelled up ready for UPS to collect at 9.40am on Friday morning. We booked it on a next working day service, and I can see it was delivered that next working day at 3:12pm on Monday. Unfortunately, you've gotten a bit unlucky in that the weekend has fallen in between your dispatch and delivery date. Unless, I am missing something and the UPS delivery info is incorrect and you did not receive the item on Monday. If that is the case, please let us know and we will investigate with UPS for you. Please note, if in future you need a delivery super urgently, we do offer weekend delivery services, timed AM or PM services, and in some areas same day delivery. If you email us, call us, or message us via the live chat function on our website, we are always happy to help you when you really need something delivered quickly. Thanks again for your feedback, and have a great day! TFC

Hi Sally, thank you so much for your positive review, and for the additional feedback. We are always looking for ways to improve our service so feedback such as this is invaluable. Could I ask please for some additional information, as this will help us put in place some actions to make your next experience even better. Was it the manufacturers packaging that could be better? Was it our outer packaging that we prepared in our warehouse? I'll also reach out to you directly, and if I can get an image of the packaging that would really help me to investigate and work on the improvement plan. Thanks so much for your review and for being a loyal TFC customer! Your support really means a lot to us, and we can't wait to help you out again in the future! Thanks Mike

“Very good. Pity you moved from central london.”

Dear Hamish, Thank you so much for your fantastic 5-star rating of The Flash Centre. We genuinely appreciate your kind words and are thrilled that you had such a positive experience with us. It means a lot to our team. Truth be told, after 35 years in central London the rental rates started far exceeding our spending power as a small family run business when we moved 5 or 6 years ago. That part of town certainly changed a great deal over those three and a bit decades, and unfortunately that meant we had to find a new place to call home. We really had to think long and hard about the move, factoring in that it may not have been ideal for all our customers, but we hope ultimately it was the right decision in ensuring that we could continue to provide the exceptional service and photographic knowledge that we strive to offer our customers, for many many years to come. Should you ever need anything in the future, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. Thank you again for your generous rating and feedback. We hope to serve you even better in the future! Best regards, Mike

“easy to use the website and order was despatched the same day - wonderful service - reason why this isnt full marks is that the chosen courier UPS- was slow and inefficient with delivery- said they were going to deliver one day and then didnt do it and had to wait over saturday and sunday for the item to arrive.”

Hi Patricia, thank you so much for leaving us a positive review, it really means a lot to us. It's especially useful to us when we hear about anything that doesn't go perfectly, so we can improve things for the next customer, so for this we are truly thankful. Just having a look at the details of your parcel with UPS. I can see you order was placed at 4.41pm on a Thursday, and that we created the UPS label at 5.04pm that same day. Whilst most of our UPS deliveries arrive the next working day, because of how late in the day we booked the label, UPS weren't able to pick it up until the next day, on Friday. I can see the parcel was then delivered to you on Monday morning at 8.57am. I think in this particular case, and as a note for next time, if ordering on a Thursday in particular, ordering earlier in the day will give us a much better chance of getting the parcel to you before the weekend. Failing that, we do also offer the option of a weekend delivery with UPS, but this does come with an extra charge. It might be worth it though if you need something urgently for a shoot, so keep it in mind and give us a call on 02078375649 if ever you need this service. If you need anything else in future, we're always happy to help. I can't thank you enough for ordering with TFC, and for providing us such useful feedback. We are always on the look out for the best courier for our customers in terms of delivery speed vs price, so your feedback is invaluable to us as we continually review our options. Kind Regards, Mike

“Bought a battery for my Canon camera, which was at a great price. I got delivery for free, as I signed up to their newsletter. However, the total price would not have been nearly as competitive if taking into account The Flash Centre's normal delivery charge, which appears to be twice as much as a lot of their competitors?”

Hi Andrew, thank you so much for leaving us a 4-star review. It's great to hear that you took advantage of our delivery promotion and picked up free UPS delivery as well as the battery for a great price! Please don't forget, all orders over ÂŁ150 come with free delivery by standard, and there is no limit to the number of email addresses you can sign up to our newsletter for the free delivery coupon! So, if you don't want to pay for delivery ever again, there are ways around it. For the small-ish number of our customers who do pay for delivery, we only ever use a fully tracked, fully insured UPS service. That definitely comes with a price premium, but for photographers with deadlines, we hope it's also provides them the quick delivery they need with peace of mind. Thanks again for your feedback. We look forward to serving you again in future. TFC

“The first part of my order arrived in good time, although delivery was pricey. The shop only had one of the item and I had ordered two, so it was sent in two batches. I was surprised I could buy two if they were out of stock beyond the the first one. I called and asked for help and was told I would be contacted with an estimation on how long it would be before the item was back in stock but didn’t hear back. Part two did arrive less than a week later, so all in all a positive experience but could have been better.”

Thank you so much for the 4-star review and for the constructive feedback. I can't express enough how important it us for us to get such useful feedback from our customers! We aren't always perfect, but we are always trying to get better and better so sincere thanks for your review. When it comes to ordering products that are out of stock on our website, we do cater to quite a lot of specialist requests, so the general feedback from our customer base is that leaving the option open to order products that are out of stock, or in a higher volume than we keep in stock, is something that is generally valued. We are increasingly expanding our range into the more hobbyist side of the market that might feel differently, so we take on board your feedback for now and will use it in future decision making. That being said, if an order is part shipped, we do always aim to reach out directly to a customer personally (on top of the automated email you will have received) and I can see on this occasion we did not do that. So, please accept my apologies for that. When it comes to shipping, a little tip for you, we do offer free delivery over ÂŁ150 and you weren't far off that threshold. Or, if you sign up to our newsletter, we do send out a free shipping coupon so you can get free delivery under ÂŁ150. We only use an express, tracked and insured delivery service to give our customers speed and piece of mind once the order leaves our warehouse. Overall, i'm really pleased to hear you had a positive experience, and we look forward to offering you a 5-star experience on the next one! Warm Regards, Mike
