Worst Company DO NOT USE

Worst, worst company I have ever had dealings with. First the machine broke with a rug in it filled with water. I was told I would have to wait 3 days to retrieve it. The rug was sitting in its own filth! The company told me I would have to wait for an engineer to collect the rug. Engineer came and chucked it out at the petrol station. Tried to call him he shut the phone off. They tried to blame me for the washing machine breaking. I had NOT put any powder in the machine. Collected the rug that had been thrown out sitting in a bag soaking wet still in its filth. There was a white powder on the rug. This white powder was a plastic. Their machine had been clogged with. Put the rug in my machine and my machine broke. £75 later. DO NOT USE!!! Worst company ever. If I could give zero I would.

Reply - my rug did not have latex at the bottom.The drum was filled with it. You stated it was washing powder and now you're stating it's latex. Which is it??? If your engineer knows what happened. The machine was clogged and broken before I used it.

You're reply is manipulative and deceiving to customers and you have come across aggressive showing who you are behind a computer.

I wouldn't believe a word you are saying. You are liars!!!!!

Hi Jo

Thank you for your feedback.

We have investigated the matter further, and it appears that the rug you placed in the machine was not machine washable. This information can be found on the item's website starting the rug is dry clean only.
It appears that the latex bottom of the rug had disintegrated in the machine and clogged the drainage vale causing considerable damage to the machines drainage system. The rug itself was also too large for the 20kg washer causing the machine to fail under the weight and clogged water.
The engineer experienced difficulty trying to remove the rug once he had drained the excess water due to its size and weight. Our machines provide clear weight and item size warnings and these guidelines had not been followed by you. The engineer also turned his phone off due to the nature of the message you left on his phone.

Our customer service team responded to your messages immediately, arranged for an engineer to retrieve the item, and provided a full refund for you for the cost of the service. However, as the rug is not machine washable and the size and weight were not suitable for the over 20kg machine, we will not be refunding the cost for a replacement rug.

Kind Regards

Passport photo booth

I took some photos in the booth for a new passport, and tried inputting the digital code. After several attempts, I contacted customer services online. I was not confident that I would receive a quick response. However, the response was almost immediate, and my problem was resolved.

Charged twice

I recently had an issue using a machine when I was charged twice, however it was dealt with so promptly after contacting the Me Group UK without delay and the staff were so helpful and understanding.
Without any delay the duplicate cost was refunded back to me with no hesitation.
I was so pleased with the customer service provided

Unlawful and shocking customer experience

Currently in dispute with this organisation. I had passport photos taken in a booth that was marketed as Me-Group. The printed photos clearly stated that if there were any issues to contact me-group. The gov.uk website would not accept the photos so I reached out for help as per the details printed in the photos. Me-group then advised they would refund me but on application of this they backtracked saying the post office in which their booth was located owned the machine and that I should request a refund from that post office.
Had it been clearly stated that the post office company was responsible then I would have no issue. However the service I chose was marketed as a me-group service, up to and including their contact details being on the photos taken, with reference to the resolution of any photo issues being to contact me-group. Come on me-group - get to grips with consumer rights and the relevant legislation! Very, very poor.

Hi Jennifer

We appreciate you taking the time to provide your feedback.
We pride ourselves on fast, efficient customer service, so I am sorry to hear that you have had a negative experience.

Unfortunately, there was a misunderstanding with regard to the booth location that you used when the offer of a refund was provided. On further investigation the Photo-me booth you used at Berryden Post Office, Aberdeen is not owned by Me Group. This booth is owned by the post office.

Our customer service team contacted you as soon as possible to notify you of this and explained that you will need to return to the post office in order to claim a refund as they own the machine.

Once again please accept our sincere apologies for the confusion.

Kind Regards

Overpayment in photobooth

The contactless payment in the photobooth was not working correctly and kept asking me to present my card or insert my card. This happened 3 times before I received the message that my payment had been successful and that my photo's were being printed. On checking my online banking, I found I had been charged 3 times. I contacted MeGroup customer service straight away who advised I would be refunded £20.

Contacted the customer service regarding a query I had regarding the code in the photos. Got a reply almost instantly with advice as I had used the wrong option. Also asked whether I required a refund. Could not be more impressed with the service I received.
