      Did a portrait session on JCPenney and the photos were supposed to be mailed from Lifetouch. Called Lifetouch the next day morning to cancel the shipping and credit me back the money. **************** agreed and received the order confirmation that it was cancelled . Here comes the alert after late evening saying your photos were just shipped. Called back Lifetouch he said it was" too late" as the order was shipped already and they wanted me to destroy the photos and send them a picture proof for them to refund me. Negligence caused by them and the audacity to tell me so. And top of that horrible customer service from *****.
