Guaranteed passport photos for £3.95

What's the deal?

If you've ever had a passport application returned due to an 'unacceptable' photo, you'll know it can be very frustrusting. Paspic is an online photo printing service which aims to solve this problem by checking photos make the grade before it prints and posts them out.

How does it work?

The process is simple, you just register on the site and upload a photo, then use its automatic photo validator. If it's a goer, you can proceed to order hard copies for £3.95. 2-day delivery is included in the price, and photos are checked by a quality controller before posting.

If the photo submitted doesn't pass the validation test the site'll ask you to try another instead. If you're unsure how best to take the photo, it also provides tutorials.

In the 'very unlikely' event the photos you get are returned by the passport agency, Paspic will do the next batch for free.

Who's this for?

The service can be used by anybody with a digital camera and web access. It's particularly useful for getting passport photos for babies and toddlers, which conventionally can prove awkward.

A possible 50p off on top.

Check your local Post Office for leaflets advertising this service. They include a discount code for 50p off, and are pretty widespread.

Anything else?

If you've no need for the fancy validation service, you may be able to get prints completely free. Read the Free Photo Prints deals note for the latest offers.
