I am copying the response from 2025 to the same review on our Google business page.
Hi Ibrahim,
I’m really sorry to hear of the inconvenience described in you review.
As the owner of the business, this is something I take very seriously. I have investigated your account to the full extent of my abilities and have already sent a detailed account to your email, along with screenshots as evidence to support any claims.
I have personally gone through phone records, email threads, email conversations between colleagues discussing your enquiry, notes left on our CRM after each touch-point with you, and the outcome of each touch-point or conversation.
In summary, whilst you proposed an appointment time by email, an appointment was never confirmed by us. The date you chose to arrive at the studio was also not for the date that you requested from us so I'm further struggling to understand why you have left us this review.
The date you say you came to the studio was also Saturday and our admin team do not work on Saturdays, your numerous calls on this day (from our premises) were therefore not answered.
Our first recorded contact from you is on at the 27th June at 4:02pm via a web contact form on our website.
I appreciate that you said both on the phone to me and in your enquiry that you had called us twice before by phone and hadn’t received a response.
Looking at the incoming call log on our inbound phone, there were no such missed calls from your number that were received on our end.
We have a dedicated team in place to take these calls and so there really is no reason why they would not be answered or returned however if this did slip past us somehow, I really do apologise for this.
The first confirmed contact that we received from you was your web enquiry on 27th June at 4:02pm. Our dedicated customer support team member called you within 6 minutes, in response to your web enquiry to help answer your questions.
On this call, you advised us that you were about to run into a meeting, responding only with “I’ll tell you when I see you”.
We mentioned that we will need to understand more about your personal or branding needs before we can book in an appointment with a headshot specialist.
As you were busy in that moment, we advised that we’d call you again tomorrow before the call was ended however we did not confirm an appointment for a session with you on this call and we don’t know why you left this call feeling as though an appointment had been made.
The email I have sent to you privately goes into considerably more detail on this along with highlighting the spam signals that your email address is sending, causing it to be flagged by Gmail and landing in our Spam.
We were able to find these emails and we alerted you to the issue to and ways to reduce the spam signals currently being raised by our email provider (Google).
The addition of significant phone interference coming from your phone whenever we have spoken to you (perhaps a Bluetooth headset?) also made it very difficult to understand you. I don’t know how the line sounded from your side however I fear that this may have also contributed to any misunderstanding as we really did struggle to hear you. This interference happed on my follow up call to you too, indicating a divide issue on your end.
If you’d like to discuss this matter any further please don’t hesitate to contact me directly.
I have reached out to you since our last conversation and followed up however I haven’t managed to hear back from you as yet and would love to resolve this amicably.
