Photobucket Reviews in May 2025: User Ratings, Pros & Cons

I got one of those e-mails...I'm gonna…

I got one of those e-mails...I'm gonna have to see what the f*** is happening...and if I'm FORCED to pay...I'll get my uploaded photos out, pay their G**damn fine, and get the f*** out!They should call that site Photof***it!

This "new" look is amazingly worse than…

This "new" look is amazingly worse than even the last upgraded look that was profoundly worse than the one before it. I can't get to image tags, it is "streamlined" to an insanely unworkable hipster nightmare degree. The "help" video was narrated by a cocaine addict in a hurry. It never ends with these repellent tedious unethical incompetent unreachable grifters only interested in making money. I abhor the thousands of dollars in lost time I have endured trying to overcome their ...

As usual

As usual, photobucket is NOT working. Since their switch to a new/improved/updated version, nothing works. You can not post full size photos on 3rd. party web page (they are working on that....have been for about 3 months) and if you try to post thumbnail photos, it gives the viewer access to you full photobucket account. Fees are high, performance and service terrible.Big mistake to pay for a subscription a year in advance.

Absolutely the worst business conduct…

Absolutely the worst business conduct I've seen. I think I've seen more honest criminals than these people. Their policy of sending out mail in pure scam tone about upgrading your account is disgusting and their retroactive policy changes while holding your photos hostage is beyond despicable. The intentional hobbling of the free account serves no other purpose than to dissuade people from unsubscribing from their miserable "service". I deeply regret ever using Photobucket.

This used to be a number one site for…

This used to be a number one site for photo hosting to blogs and forums and ebay listings, etc and then they decided to make it premium and make hosting images part of the premium. They also hold your photos as hostage unless you pay them. They claimed I was hosting my links so I broke them and I still got that email and pop up in my account. They also said I was nearing my storage and I wasn't even close to my storage limit. I saved all my important photos to my PC and left it at that. few ...

Recover your pics through 'screen capture'.

For those of you struggling to get your pictures back, my suggestion is to try 'screen capture',...that way no sloppy download with who knows what in it.Just try 'screen capture' and Capture you pictures back..cageshowproductions .media

Do not pay

After years of their service. I had pictures and videos from 2005-2006... I figured if I signed in my beloved photos and films would still be there. I get they have this new payment plan, so I figured they would have storage all my documents after signing into the same account, and asking for payment. I payed, a year subscription because those documents... pictures and recordings, is what I wanted to receive... no. My account is empty. It’s a brand new empty account with nothing inside. I ...

Terrible website

Honestly would give them a zero if it were possible, considering how terrible their service has become over the past several years. Used to upload things with them in the past, but because they have capped it or charge exorbitant amounts for hosting / do not make it easy to download albums in an attempt to clean it out on the user's ends, their service sucks now.Use Imgur or Google Drive (though you have limits on the latter, but it's free).

Use to be a great image hosting service

Once upon a time this use to be a great service that I used on messaging boards for different games that I play.Ever since I have recovered my account, photobucket constantly emails me telling me that I'm over the storage limit, but when I check my account it says I have less than 1% of my storage used.I've pulled all of my images and have sinced closed my account - Use google drive instead of this garbage - atleast then you aren't sent threatening emails demanding you upgrade (when you are ...

I emptied both of my accounts

I emptied both of my accounts, one by one, since they removed a batch transfer option that would have made it so much easier. I was difficult as hell, the site would lock up, the options would change, popups all over since I had to turn off my ad blocker. But I got them all and guess what I keep receiving every other day. The same email that I'm over their free storage limit! that prompted me to close both accounts. Scam, horrible company, bad bad business. The good news is that my MySpace ...
