Totally ***********

My Patience has expired!

I went to specsavers for an eye test for contact lenses November 2017

Trial lenses arrived December 2017 and after a couple of weeks trial I went back to the shop , confirmed they were ok and to go ahead with the order

After a few weeks of not hearing anything I phoned and was told lenses were waiting for me. I returned to the store - the lenses I had ordered were not there and they could only find another pair of trial lenses - from a different manufacturer and gave me these ones again promising to order the correct ones

Another three weeks later in Feb 2018 I returned again - and again no trace of order, promised to get a time line and call me the following day ...... of course no call

Went back again and the same routine..... this time lenses were ordered, two weeks later mid April of March I went to collect - this time they were the wrong lenses!!

They promised to order and escalate - three weeks later I go in to collect - this time it’s trial lenses of the wrong make

This is beyond incompétence - in 5 months the shop has not managed to order the correct lenses despite being told numerous times - they did supply them correctly as trial lenses but seem to order every other manufacturer rather than the ones that work best for me

I have had good experiences with specsavers elsewhere but no longer have any faith in the staff in my local store - utterly useless

Reviewer Update
I dealt with the Campus Square branch in Melville I have to say I no longer want to deal with that branch - it is now nearly six months since the original eye test and after so many attempts I still am waiting for the correct contact lenses. It has caused me problems at work since the lenses I have been supp**** with again and again do not correct the astigmatism issue I have From the first visit I specified the brand of lenses I wanted since in the years I have been using them they worked well- Bausch and Lomb . The first test lenses supp**** in December were these lenses and the ones I approved. Since then the lenses they have supp**** have been Johnson and Johnson, Cooper and Cooper and another brand I have been clear with them on the many visits to the store which brand I require and each time they promised to get it sorted out , I fail to understand why they do not order and obtain the correct lenses - they got it right first time on the trial set ! The amount of time wasted with the alternative lenses they keep supplying, the problems the double vision causes at work etc (reading and writing emails is a huge problem with the double vision issues ) has gone way beyond acceptable. There has been no real apology from Campus Square, repeated promises to get the correct lenses, repeated promises of phone updates - none of which happen I don’t know if this can be fixed at a different store but I am no longer prepared to deal with your campus square branch and further waste my time If you can offer a solution to the issues please let me know My details Andrew Hedley ***
