I can’t recommend Colin from Video99 highly enough! He was fantastic from start to finish. Not only has he rescued and perfectly restored my childhood memories, but he did it so professionally and in super quick time too. All for a very reasonable price. Thank you so much Colin!

Excellent Service from Colin. After I contacted Colin, he emailed me, with a thorough explanation of what he could do and a clear cost breakdown. I had VHS videos and 8mm camcorder tapes (broken and damaged), which he successfully transferred to a memory stick, in a very short time. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Video 99.

Amazing service from start to finish. Colin provided frequent and timely communication from initial enquiry to completion of transfer. Very pleased with results of transfer from old U-matic tape to downloadable file with back up on stick. Good value (especially compared with some similar service providers) Very pleased and highly recommend Video99.

Really impressed with the service received. Communication was excellent right from when I first enquired to receiving the completed USB stick. I wanted to transfer old video camera tapes to a format I could watch on my laptop. I now have these precious memories available to me once again and am so pleased with the quality.

Superb service, repaired a mouldy Video 8 tape, recovered a badly distorted video 8 tape and digitised 12 hours of VHS tape.

Video99 is providing a fantastic service! Colin was communicative and very fast, provided all the relevant info, and was so efficient! I shall definitely be using Video99 service again. The entire process from getting in contact, sending my old cassette tape and receiving the USB with my video files took less than a week! Thank you very, very much!

Colin transferred an old VHS video onto a USB stick for me. Very quick service and helpful information. Would recommend his service.

I found video99 when I entered my requirements on Google. I wanted a programme which was broadcasted in 1979 transferring from an old cassette so we could see it again. Colin from video99 came back to me with a quote straight away. I went ahead with the transfer and Colin kept me in touch throughout the process. I am very pleased with the final results and would recommend anyone who is thinking of video transfer to use video99, excellent service from start to finish.

Great and professional service Colin has the best equipment out there to transfer your old family videos etc onto any format you desire. 20 tapes were sorted very quickly and colin kept ime nformed all the way. Colin repaired my damaged tapes that I thought were beyond repair. Overall a great service. Look nowhere else to transfer your old family videos. John.

About to celebrate our 60th wedding anniversary. I wanted to be able to show the film that was made at the time of our wedding on 16mm film. Fortunately I have a video transfer on BVU Umatic and some quarter inch tape of the audio. Colin managed to get an acceptable copy of the nearly 60 year old tapes into a digital format and send me the result on a USB stick. All accomplished in a few days at a very good price. Thankyou.

I highly recommend Colin / video99. He provided an excellent service from start to finish. I had a box of old home movies (Video8 tapes) dating back 25 years that we had not been able to look at since the original video camera stopped working years ago. On the recommendation of a neighbour I contacted Colin. He couldn’t have been more helpful answering all my questions and addressing my concerns about keeping the tapes secure. When I sent him the tapes I was very impressed by how well he kept me informed and how quickly he did the job. Just two days after I had posted the tapes he had uploaded the converted files for me to look at and confirm I was happy with them! Two days later I received the tapes back and a memory stick containing all the converted files in DV-AVI and MPEG format. In total the whole process took just 4 days! We’ve really enjoyed being able to easily watch the movies on our tv and laptops. I just wish I had done this sooner!Moreexpand_more

Excellent service. Very well pleased with converting an old Beta video tape to digital. Great communication and a great job done very quickly at a sensible price. Highly recommended.

If I could give Colin more stars, I would. I have been using his service for over a decade, and each time I'm amazed at how quick, informative, reasonably priced and just how easy he makes the video transfer process. I've worked in the industry myself so I know how many charlatans and overpriced services there are willing to take your cash and run. I even trusted him with my wedding videos and was impressed with the quality of the digital results - supplied on USB stick or WeTransfer. Absolutely great work, keep it up Colin!

Copied reel to reel tape to digital media. Fast service and great quality. Kept fully informed of progress at all times. Very satisfied with the service provided.

Colin rescued a fast deteriorating VHS home movie and gave me back something I can now actually watch without several agonising hours trying to remember if I have a VHS player and if so, where the heck is it… Brilliantly quick with clear instructions on how much he could (or couldn't! ) do, made for a reliable and friendly service. I would trust him with any conversions like this one, and have already recommended him to a friend. To be able to now share this home movie with family is just fabulous. Thank you Colin!

I don't usually write reviews as constantly being asked for reviews on everything one can buy from a bar of soap to a pack of picture hooks, However I have made an exception as the service offered by Colin was really good, the quality excellent and the speed from the time of me sending 16VHS tapes the contents of which I had no idea except amongst them were home movies from the 80's and copies of cine film from the 60's was under a week! My advice is do not hesitate to have video99 transfer the old VHS tapes before the memories are lost forever!

Excellent and quick service. Kept updating at every stage. Would recommend.

Rare to find a service like this that far exceeds expectations in every way. From initial quote enquiry through to seeing the excellent result, everything was handled in a very professional but also very friendly manner. Was kept fully aware of what was happening at all times. Nothing seemed too much trouble and final result, considering the age of the tape as well as tape damage probably caused by someone's previous attempts on poorly setup equipment, the final result was very high quality. The supply of both a smaller low resolution copy plus a larger high resolution copy suitable for editing was a bonus. Very happy to recommend this service and Mr McCormick unreservedly. Only wish I had other tapes that need digitising so I could use it again.

It was a pleasure to deal with Colin. Not only was the turn around much faster than I had imagined, but Colin kept me informed at every step of the process. The quality of the transfer is superb. Definitely 5 stars all round.

Professionally done high quality. He restored a video tape years old with issues but he managed a brilliant copy. So pleased with his work. .
