I was going to try Photo Hippo for the roll of FP4 but filmdev are so good even though B & W is much more than colour to get devved and scanned. £4 a roll is a bit ouch but then the price of postage to somewhere else is also the same ouch.
I did used to be dev only but the 5400 scanner I had went on the wonk and there aren't really any good alternatives. It's such a faff compared to a we transfer link in an email too.

I was contemplating trying AG again as they include freepost label but that's untracked and there's no way of adding tracking on top that I know of. If they had a tracked option I might have considered it. AW do tracked but it's 2nd class and per roll not per order which is a bit annoying. Filmdev are still the best quality compared to the rest that I've tried so far.

@serichards I scan at home with an Essential Film Holder and the cinestill light using a digital camera, although converting the colour negs can be a pain. If you've already got a macro lens it might not be that expensive.
