Find another image-service!

Flickr have spent the last couple of years on becoming an absolutely fine image service. Suddenly - Autumn 2018 - they changed their conditions and start deleting you images if you don't pay an annual fee. The problem is, that they make it REALLY difficult and time consuming to download the images. ...and the deletion date just gets closer and closer :-( Never open an account with them. Best advice: Find another service!

If I could give them zero stars

If I could give them zero stars, I would. This new year, new Flickr disgusts me. I have enjoyed working beside and admiring professional art. I have edited and collected new clients and used Flickr to show my own work. Now they threaten to delete it all?You cannot take away 1T free and hand us 1000 picture max. That's ridiculous.Heartbroken. Nothing was better than Flickr.

I don't like to be extorted

I don't mind paying for service. I do mind being extored into paying for services where a formerly free service suddenly threatens to hide and even delete your photo's of you don't pay up.All of this without giving proper notification (a single vague email in november) or a proper, fair timeframe for migrating away.I understand the current setup is not sustainable. That still doesn't give you the right to break your earlier promisses and treat users this way.Needless to say I've copied my data away and I'm really curious to see if they will delete my assets without any further notification.

Most Intrusive Application Out There

Reckon Yahoo and Flickr breach every GDPR regulation out there.Wanted a replacement for Photobucket which I use occasionally. Someone suggested Flickr. I went to the sign up page and initially put off that it expected me to create a Yahoo account. Wasn’t interested so was about to leave but discovered I already have a Yahoo account from long ago so sign up using that. Hit a load of privacy questions and it is clear that Yahoo/Flickr are totally disregarding GDPR but opting you in by default and then making extremely difficult to opt out.I then find that dispite already having a Yahoo account and signing up with that, it created a new one without notifying me or asking my permission.Decide that I don’t want anything to do with this immoral company and find that I can’t even sign out. I did eventually, the option is so hidden it has clearly been designed to prevent users from finding it.Truely immoral and unethical comapny that has no regards for national laws and regulations. Do not trust your data with these guys, they have made it quite clear that they have no interest in your privacy.

Flickr is a RIP off!!!!

First Flickr offered 1tb for free now they reverse it and say your limited to 1000 pics! What a RIP off! They should at least let you have the free 1tb that they offered for free then you pay after that but nope! I am only have 11% of 1tb and now they are asking to pay like $65a year!! Total RIP off off!! Flickr sucks!!!!

What a crock of crap

What a crock of crap, they have destroyed 26,000 photos of mine and won't tell me why. I got an email to say the pro account was closed and that was it. 26,000 photos down the drain, gone forever. Flickr can go and shove itself up it's own backside.

Smugmug has destroyed any trust of cloud storage and they don't care

Smugmug and Flickr have destroyed any sense of credibility of cloud storage online. Smugmug, after buying Flickr, changed their terms of service to "PAY-US or GET-OFF." Offering to keep 1000 pictures doesn't help. So this user is leaving. There is no way this user is going to work with a company that exhibits that kind of attitude, nor will we succumb to that kind of extortion. And their CEO is absolutely SMUG about it -- even insinuating that those who accepted and used Yahoo's 1Tb offering were somehow taking advantage of them. They knew about users like us when they purchased the company. It is sad to see so many great pictures simply disappear from the internet and when we contacted them about it, in their response, they simply didn't care. SMUG. There is no way that we will ever support their greedy, new terms of service, and even if we did, there is no guarantee that they won't raise their prices in the future. -- Goodbye and good riddance.
