I have been using the Dreamstime site for years and am always amazed at how many creative and beneficial images I am able to use for my various projects. From photos, to illustrations, to videos... you need digital resources? Dreamstime has them!
I've been an ongoing customer of Dreamstime for seven years now. I started out using it just to find cool pictures to frame and hang on my wall, but when I began writing a blog for my former employer, these tools became invaluable.

Extremely satisfied! Those who carefully build their portfolio on Dreamstime will also be rewarded. The entire service works perfectly, educates and encourages. A great tool for creatives, graphic designers and of course photographers!
Because you encourage me to enrich my portfolio, photo editing is user friendly and finally, you give value to my interest. Congratulations and keep it up.
Customer service via the 800 number was quick and professional. I was happily surprised to speak to an actual person who picked up quickly. Thank you.
Despite having a subscription I am still being charged for free images. I've now paid 2 x £25 within the same month. How can I request a refund.

I'm really sorry to hear about the troubles you've encountered, Jacey J. It sounds like there might have been a misunderstanding, especially if you're being charged for images that should be included in your plan. To request a refund, the best course of action is to directly contact customer support. Provide them with details of your subscription and the charges you've incurred. They should be able to look into your account's activity and resolve the issue for you.
At Dreamstime, you can reach out our customer service team by visiting https://www.dreamstime.com/contact. It's important to have any relevant details handy, such as your subscription type, the charges you've noticed, and any specific images or transactions in question. This will help them assist you more efficiently.
Remember, customer satisfaction is a priority, and they should be committed to resolving any issues with your billing or subscription.
Envato offers one subscription for all, but at Dreamtime, I have to buy images, video and sounds under different subscriptions. Also, Envato has Microsoft presentation templates in its format for downloads, the images may be vectors or illustrations but with ms presentation, the download is still in picture format, which I cannot use in ms presentation. It really irritates me.
For the Chinese New Year videos.
Great photos of just about anything and anywhere, by talented photographers. Very easy to search, purchase, and download.
Wanted to research a National Monument
Had to fill in Amex card 4 times, and it would not let me back in. Cleared cache and then I could GIVE YOU MONEY!
Transaction processes were not particularly smooth, but they work and you receive quality art for your investment. Better investment than more pricey image repositories and closer to the actual creators & photographers.
Easy site to use; it remembered my account after several years of non-years, and my old credits were still in effect.
Ease of use; variety of products.
Thought I had a free week trial, submitted my credit card and then had to do it again... so.?
We are a church and always need beautiful images for backgrounds to use during the service, as well as images that reflect the ethnic diversity of our congregation. You also have love Christian images to choose from.

Very frustrated. I tried to buy the backup plan for.99/month and it didn't work after trying many times. Finally it did work. But I don't understand the plans, or what I have or how to upgrade. The pictures are beautiful, but it is not a user friendly site.

You had the image I needed. Great. BUT it would be nice to just buy the image I need for my book cover once a year. One pic one time.
I had images left, my understanding what that I could still use those images when I suspended my account. Today was my subscription due date, so I think I just paid $34 for images I can't use. To unlock the images again I took advantage of your offer, so I just paid another $20 for 15 images. I am expecting to get a $54 bill on my credit card, which really upsets me.
I chose dreamstime for the image selection, but I don't need it all the time and I could use other platforms for less, they just don't have the variety.

Site is easy to use and I love that when an image sells, you mark it with the uploading data that I included.
Not pleased with price hike of images. They used to cost 1-3 credits, they now cost 11-13 and consequently packages are more expensive.

Super selection of pictures. And good support / service in times of need.
I want to download a Valentine's Day picture.
I had a lot of unused downloads - like over 200 images so I stopped my subscription - I had no idea I would lose those images! Not cool.

Dreamstime is contacting businesses with claims of license infringement for images that have been legally obtained from other stock image sites. This company is unethical in trying to scare businesses into paying them for images they already paid for from other stock photo sites.
Thank you for your feedback! A reply was provided within hours of your email. Dreamstime represents the portfolios of approx.900,000 worldwide contributors and we usually check image usage and licenses. If your images were licensed elsewhere, then this is perfectly acceptable. In order for us to close these cases, we may require license proof. Please reply to the emails, our colleagues from Infringements will surely assist you!
Love dreamstime. Thank you for helping me share the messages and stories on my heart! So grateful!
It has images I am looking for
This website contains images of young children with out clothes and in some strange potions. Is it disgusting to say the least. These were just a few of photos I found to be inappropriate. This website is not what it says it is intended for. Its used to trade images of underage children for pedophile purposes. Disgusting.
