    Hi I applied for this offer too - but havent heard anything. Does anyone have a number I can call to ask what happened? Should I contact Prima magazine? Thanks.

    Hmmm, I did the Times one last December and last week (!) I had a phone call to say that The Hair Group had "let us down". The caller offered me an alternative offer of either a 8"x10" family portrait OR a makeover with photos. I was suspicious as to who was calling and said I wasnt interested. She gave me the number of the "studio" who were arranging the offers and when I checked it was the same number that she was calling from. So who exactly has let who down I ask myself. It seems to now be a money-making operation - they assume you will want more than one of their family portraits and although the makeover is free you can bet the photos arent. I live in Kent btw.

    Hi im in Kent and i also had this call. We are booked to have to family portrait done, you do get one free picture but i guess they try and sell you more. But my family are not easily sold to! ;) I checked it out and its a promotion that the studio in Chatham run all the time. A lot of photographic studios have promotions like this so it cant be a con!

    Still not heard anything. I am in Berkshire and I know there are several salons in this area who are in the group.

    No, neither are we easily sold to. We just bought the one free family portrait last time we had an offer from Olan Mills. The woman on the phone said it WASNT Olan Mills, but whoever they are, they are in Chatham high street.

    Got a text from them saying " We've no salons in your area.We will notify you when we have salons in your area" Rubbish ! I live in Bromley and there are 4 salons within 5 miles of me.Looks like it was a con to get me to buy the magazine.

    Would probably we worth you complaining to Prima, this is what I will be doing If I do not hear within the next week.
  • I've also had a text to say no salons in your area - when the website says that there is. I've tried looking for a contact address or something on their website and nothing. I'm going to try texting the number back, not that I'll hold my breath.
  • I had a text message to say there was no shop in my area and yet I checked first and there is one in the town where I work and I asked for this when I sent the coupon off.

    How do I contact them please?
