Bounty Reviews

After a rude experience where a "photographer" thrust herself into my cubicle as I recovered from my c-section, took only five pictures as she refused to wait a moment for me to change my baby as she'd been sick. I had some tiny free photos shortly after which were such a low resolution and pixelated.
Now a few years on, I've been sent an email saying my pictures will be deleted in a few days. If I want them I'm expected to pay over a hundred pounds for five images, well actually ten if you count the one click black and white conversion copies.
You take advantage of new mothers, overprice pictures taken by photographers with very basic skills and then hold precious memories of our first hours with our child to ransom.
Shocking.

They promote products from awful companies.
They had loads of vouchers for precious little one on their app.
Precious little one has been the worse company I've ever experienced. They took my money and I still don't have the product.

I would go as far as to say it should be illegal for bounty to be present in hospitals. After having a traumatic birth and recovering from a third degree tear my sheets covered in blood and still unable to go to toilet for myself I wanted believe it or not to hold on to a little bit of dignity. Now with camera phones you can take photos of your baby when they are born you do not need some stranger pulling open your curtains when you feel battered and bruised and pressuring you in to having your photo taken. No compassion for what that must have felt like? Didn’t feel safe that people were just allowed to walk in.

Both births I've declined to have them come. Both times they've come anyway , several times 'to make sure' . They've even pulled back curtains when I've had them closed for privacy. Unless you are a medical professional or a guest I've invited this is disgusting behaviour.
They are commission driven and have no place on a maternity ward where women are at their most vunerable.
The photos are poor quality and women feel pressured to capture these ' precious moments'
No, all that's being captured is money.
They should be banned.

5 stars Love this candy!!! Love these candy bars

The last thing you want when you have just given birth is to be approached by a marketing person trying to flog you stuff. Why on earth do the hospitals let these people in?

Don't use the app for any discounts or vouchers. They'll push you toward GoGroopie discounts and they will take your money and not provide the item paid for.
The pushiness and the money they charge on the ward is not worth it, take your own pictures if you can.

Within 24 hours of giving birth we were visited by a Bounty rep in the postnatal ward of the hospital. She pulled back the curtain and strolled straight in, she was very polite but very pushy.
We declined the newborn photo shoot but she was insistent that my husband gave her his details so that we could have a "free" pack , she gave us 2 packs as she said they were running out of date.
The packs contained vouchers that were already out of date, 3 newborn pampers, some newborn pampers wipes (trial pack) and 1 mini sudocrem.
Within 5 days of my husband giving Bounty his email address (they also ask for your newborn baby's details too) , he started getting junk emails addressed to "Mr Oliver" which is our son's name - not only had they sold my husband's details on to third parties, they'd also sold our newborn child's details. We know it was Bounty as the only place we had given my husband's email address along side our child's name was in the hospital to the Bounty rep, we hadn't even registered his birth and he was receiving advertising for cars and household goods.
I'm astounded that the NHS allow Bounty to roam the maternity wards and harass new parents, it's absolutely disgraceful.
Do not give these people your details, you do not have to and you can politely ask them to leave.
