      Answered
      This company sold me an expensive photo package which included digital access.... not even a download. Now they say I have 2 weeks to come up with ($139 + tax I bet) for an actual download code, or lose permanent access to the photos. As in the access I already paid for. They'll throw in the code for free if you spend over $150. The photo prints packages are all over $100 if you want all photos. No matter what, they're demanding another $100-$150 to keep what I literally already paid that much for to have. The download should be complimentary or low cost. The website claims they "have to make room. " Shutterfly keeps stuff for free forever.... with no threats. There was no disclosure about a time limit for paid digital access. Customer service lies about getting back to me and has refused contact. I love these pre school photos but this is exploiting parents. Total scam to force people to double their over priced orders. I even have an email saying I'd get my downloads after the last time I was asked to pay.... and they never sent them. Total scam.
