RE: filmscanners: Re: Scanning problems



The lab are called Image Care in Kingston upon Thames, UK
(www.imagecare.com). If anyone can recommend any local labs in that area, it
would be appreciated. 

Thanks, 

Julie

It this place you are dealing with doesn't understand basic things like
this, you probably should not be using them.

I would tell them to do the job again, or give you your money back, period.

Would you mind telling who the 'lab' is so we can avoid them?
