6 weeks and still waiting for my order!!

Well hopefully this review will elicit a response from Julian, who seems to ignore emails. I sent a pair of Oakley frames for a reglaze with Zeiss lenses back on 11th June; arrived with Posh Eyes via Royal Mail in 48 hours and that is when things went wrong... the frames managed to get lost on their way to Zeiss for the glazing! Something to do with a Royal Mail/Courier mix up; unfortunately, whilst a replacement frame was ordered from Oakley on 9th July; I'm still waiting for a response from Julian as to when I'm going to receive my glasses back (they've had plenty of time to get the replacement frames back for reglazing). Now my emails are being ignored; one very unhappy customer and whilst I appreciate issues happen, it is how promptly and courteously a company resolves things, especially as it has now been nearly 6 weeks since my original order was placed. If I don't hear anything in the next few days then I'll be issuing a letter before action. I would avoid this company and go elsewhere.

Hello Chris

Many thanks for taking the time to provide a review. I am very sorry about your experience with your Oakley glasses reglaze.

As you pointed out, your frame became misplaced by the Royal Mail between us and Zeiss’ lens glazing laboratory in Birmingham. As per my emails and phone calls to you, we are doing all we can with the Royal Mail to find your glasses frame, and failing this, to recover the loss from the Royal Mail. Unfortunately this is taking some time.

In the meantime, I am happy to refund your order in full.

We have received an identical new frame from Oakley today. If you wish to have this frame glazed, I am happy to offer the frame at cost. This frame would come with Oakley case, microfibre bag and two year warranty. Once we have recovered the loss from the Royal Mail, I will then refund the cost of the frame to you.

Postscript 27/07/26
I understand that you have now received your order and trust that you are happy with the result of your reglazed glasses.

Kind regards

Julian Gooddy
Managing Director

Prescription Lenses for my Oakley Actuator SQ

Order Reference 100016128,

Absolutely can't fault this company. Uploaded my prescription and other details to their website, with no issues whatsoever. Delivered within two weeks, and they fit perfectly, and the exact same vision as my prescription glasses.

Highly recommend......😎👍🏼

You don't need glasses to see great service

Brilliant website but I needed some help and guidance so I had to call, Julian was quick to answer my questions, very knowledgeable and very patient.

I was having some unusual glasses reglazed Huawei Smart Glasses 2 (Brow line edition) with some Zeiss lenses, posh eyes went away confirmed it could be done and got back to me with a highly competitive price very quickly.

A little over a week I had my glasses back to me regazed all in all a great friendly service and very speedily completed.

Posh Eyes are highly recommend and I will be using again.

Helpful and informative - very happy to have found this company

I originally contacted posh eyes in relation to obtaining some geniune Rayban prescription lens replacements. Julian was extremely helpful and informative and through our conversations I actually went ahead with replacing my older Oakley lenses which I didn’t know / realise was possible. Process was extremely smooth and Julian was communicative and helpful throughout. I have another pair of glasses I would like doing and I won’t hesitate to use this company again.

A truly brilliant service

A truly brilliant service. Professional, speedy and thorough. I got a branded pair of glasses much cheaper than an unbranded pair of the High Street. The process was very simple and I would definitely use them again.

Poor company

Company takes the full 10 working days to mark as dispatched, but still not actually dispatched as Royal Mail don't have the parcel.

When I rang earlier in the week got a story about glasses going missing on the way to the lab, so they aren't dispatching them anyway.

This company is drop shipping and lie about dispatched. I'll never use again. Ordered 20/5, 6/6 still nothing.

EDIT: So everything I said was spot on

EDIT2: Now two days later, Royal Mail still don't have the parcel. Marking dispatched is a therefore a untrue, which I think makes it a lie. I rang and was hung up on as apparently telling the truth is rude and they will no longer speak to me. Contacting trading standards, this company is an utter joke.

Dean, many thanks for your comments. I am sorry to hear that you are unhappy with the service you have received from Posh Eyes. My apologies for the slight delay in despatching your Ray-Ban prescription Predator 2 sunglasses to you. As discussed on the phone, unfortunately the turnaround from our lens manufacturer was longer than we had hoped, which led to a two day delay. Rest assured that your prescription sunglasses are ready to go and you will be able to track the progress of your delivery once the Royal Mail has collected from us. Kind regards, Julian Gooddy, Managing Director, Posh Eyes.

RESPONSE TO EDIT: Just to clarify, we do not "lie" about items despatched. Once a Royal Mail label is generated, a despatch email is automatically created and sent to our customers. There is a short time between the label being generated and the Royal Mail collection.

Excellent Company

I spoke to Julian who was very helpful in advising me on the best lenses for my varifocal prescription.
The new glasses arrived very quickly and are perfect.
The service is excellent and my place to use for all future glasses.
Thank you .

Great optical experience

I've ordered replacement lenses after 2 previous successfull experiences of buying 2 pairs of glasses with multifocal/varifocal lenses in the past few years.
Service is personal, helpful and professional.
All is authentic genuine and new.
Lenses are great.
Very happy!

Amazing! Posh Eyes are incredible!

Oakley didn’t make lenses for the frames I wanted. Julian was incredibly helpful and went out his way to assist and offer expert advice on alternative lenses and Oakley frames, options etc. My chosen glasses arrived super quick and look fantastic. Posh eyes and Julian was a perfect experience - great service, expert advice, quick delivery, top product, great communication & keen to ensure the customer is happy. I will 100% be using them again.

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!

Utterly Useless.

I ordered a pair of Oakley Sunglasses that were "in stock" on the website. I eventually get an email from Julian telling me that they were a "special order" and that my existing lenses didn't fit the new frame.

I acknowledged the error and politely requested a refund as no work had been performed, request was denied by Julian as it was a "special order" weird, because they're a common frame in the Oakley range. Julian could fit expensive new Oakley lenses though, rather conveniently.

I then requested the frame be sent out as i've ordered lenses from a laboratory, only to receive no response and my old lenses arrive in the post and a refund email from the company.

I would suggest you spend your money elsewhere, this chap really needs to find another line of work, retail and customer service isn't a strong point.

I am very sorry that you have not been happy with your experience.

Some of our products, particularly those which have been discontinued by a manufacturer, can only be purchased from Posh Eyes as make-to-order items. We highlight on our website those items which are make-to-order only.

We recognise that mistakes can be made by customers, even when ordering make-to-order items, and hence, as a gesture of goodwill, we returned your lenses to you at no cost to you and provided a full refund of your order as per your original email request.

Given our efforts to help, we were very surprised by the comments and rating. Nevertheless, we always encourage those who have experience of Posh Eyes to let us know their views.

Julian, Posh Eyes

Absolutely incredible service

Absolutely incredible service.

I've been a full-time glasses wearer for 2 years and each summer I've threatened to buy prescription lenses for my Oakley Frogskins. Each year I've struggled to justify the cost the high street opticians want to charge for genuine Oakley lenses. And yes, they are superior lenses!

I found Posh Eyes a year ago but didn't take the plunge. It seemed risky to buy such expensive lenses online, but this year I decided to go for it. I'd already made contact with them via Social Media to verify they were indeed genuine Oakley lenses, and so ordered online.

Communication was excellent and Julian was very clear how long they'd take. Today they've arrived and I must say they are perfect.

Don't be concerned about ordering online with them - they're fantastic. And when I need new glasses I'll be sure to get them from Posh Eyes.

I am very sorry that you have been unhappy with your purchase from Posh Eyes. We aim to provide the highest level of customer service and to resolve any issues in an amicable way. Although we are unable to refund a make-to-order item that is purchased in error, we will of course look to find a way to help our customer achieve a satisfactory outcome. Occasionally our offer to help is not accepted. Should you decide to change your mind, I will be happy to help in providing you with exactly the sunglasses you would like, rather than the sunglasses ordered. Kind regards, Julian Gooddy, Posh Eyes.

Fantastic service

Great service. Initially chose them due to the selection of glasses. However, I will definitely be using them again based on their service and delivery.

Overall great service

Overall I am very impressed with the service I’ve had from this company. Glasses arrived with thinned lens, excellent result and appear very good quality. I always get the thinnest lens as I have a high prescription and have used other companies online that I would have considered excellent in the past however posh eyes so far appear to be the best I’ve used. Delivery after dispatch was very fast. Small gripe would be that some communication re status of order could be improved but would definitely use again and have no problem recommending.

Having struggled with standard high…

Having struggled with standard high street varifocals for some time Posh Eyes was a revelation! Rather than just offering three or four variations on the basic lens (as had been the case with my previous chain optician) Julian has access to a number of manufacturers meaning that he can truly customise your glasses. He really took the time to find out exactly what I wanted from my varifocals and, consequently he was able to recommend specific Zeiss lenses which, combined with superlight Oakley frames, have made life much easier! So pleased was I that I ordered a pair of sunglasses too. My husband has also just bought his new glasses from Posh Eyes and is delighted with them; he says they are far better than all his previous high street ones!
Julian provides an amazing service with excellent 'products' and I have already recommended Posh Eyes to friends and family and will continue to do so. I only wish I'd discovered Posh Eyes a few years ago - especially as they are based just up the road from me ;-)
