ThePhotoStick customer service is excellent.

ThePhotoStick customer service is excellent. I had a problem with my photostick Omni which I’ve had for a while. After contacting customer service a replacement was sent at no charge immediately. Communication is excellent and prompt. Great company to deal with.

Prompt, Professional, Straightforward -The PhotoStick

I was dealt with promptly when I called out for help. Help was made available even given major problems with time zone differences. I live in Australia.

I was patiently taken through the steps to identify why my PhotoStick Omni appeared not to be working. When it was found that the stick itself was malfunctioning, the company immediately arranged for me to have a replacement stick.

I am of senior years (81) and retired. But as a retired academic and Catholic priest I rely on memories to be kept in The PhotoStick. This was my second and bigger PhotoStick.

I am grateful for the kind, patient, and superb professionalism extended to me and would recommend this company to all.

Very concerned that due to them upselling additional drives and sending all together. Customs and post office are charging me another 40 pounds . I note in the small print they deny and decline all liabilities for imply duties, but it’s their upselling that takes you into duty area. If they had sent the purchases individually I wouldn’t be paying for their extra profit. Very disappointed, and have been waiting ages for delivery, the caroms delay now means it’s almost a month since my money went into their bank. They better work properly and not like the hundreds of disappointed customers on here! So watch out their sales mean their discounts are worthless as you have duty to pay. I am furious it’s left me out of pocket I hope your profits are swelling nicely!

What a false advertisement

What a false advertisement, No, it does not plug in and down load as advertised. A piece of junk based on the advertisement. Sorry I spent my money on this sham.

Sorry, cannot recommend this

I live in the UK. First the pricing is erratic and from various websites. You purchase a 32 GB at £65 GBP and then you find you could a get 64 GB for same money. It loads logos (non photo) with a .jpg it clogs up 31GB on photo stick and I only have 6000 photos. I do not want to have any other files other than photos. Sorry Omni Photostick. Biggest waste of £65 GBP I have spent in my life.

HORRIBLE WASTE OF $ I CAN'T GIVE A 0 OR I WOULD

The only reason I'm giving a 1 is bc there isn't a ZERO! My daughter is very tech savvy so I had her help me 'back up'my pics and videos. It took 10 tries, TEN, to get connected to her computer bc it's so flimsy she had to grab and pinch it near the plug to get it in and out of her computer. She was afraid it was going to break off and said she'd NEVER seen a usb of any sort ever do that! The pics were there, 1st try viewing. AFTER THAT THEY SAY NO FILES AVAILABLE! 😡🤬 ALL IT KEPT SAYING WAS FILE NOT FOUND AND TRY AGAIN!!!! I erased pics I can't get back bc of this poc stick saying they were saved!!!! I've contacted them and I'm STILL waiting to get my FULL REFUND! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. WATCH REVIEW VIDEOS OF THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM I HAD!

NOT WARNED ABOUT CUSTOMS CHARGES

£53GBP Custom Charges for a memory stick, that's ridiculous and had I been warned of this I would not have proceeded to buy it

Avoid

Avoid. Noticed plasticy flimsy feel to both components on unpackaging. First attempt to load into Mac the driver said the photostick was 'broken'. Now won't even load up the omni driver. Tried in iphone as well - same dud result. Off to shops...... don't want this near any of my photos or kit.

I was so stressed after placing order before clarifying shipping and billing addresses. I immediately reported the error and was amazed at how fast it got resolved! Rachel texted me right away and asked for the proper addresses and fixed the issue in record time. Thank you so much Rachel and I can't wait to get started with my PhotoStick!

The Omni does not Function on Mobile…

The Omni does not Function on Mobile Devices. When I use the app it gives an error message telling me I selected the wrong drive.Then I am advised to watch the training video again. I cannot proceed as displayed on the video. On my imac it worked for me but would not work for my wife's user site. On my iPad the Omni would not even light up the stick. Removing the Omni and using my Apple Lightning connector instead I plugged the Optistick into it and the backup commenced as expected. I am now waiting for it to complete backup. Conclusion - the Omni connector is a dud. Don't waste your hard earned money on the Omni.
