What happened to their customer service and care? Very disappointing!

I began using this company several months ago and to start with I was very impressed and satisfied. Any problems were handled with care and everything was fine. I don't know what's happened, but in the last two months the service has been anything but good! I ordered three pairs of glasses in early June and then waited a month to get them. The first excuse for the delay was that my prescription was too complicated - completely refuted by an independent optician! - and would take more time to process whereas previous orders had been sent quickly, and in 20 years I've never been told such a thing. The second excuse was a long quality check to ensure everything was correct, which it obviously wasn't.
I finally received the two pairs with the lens prescription reversed - I could only see if I wore the glasses upside down! I emailed them and was told to return them, which I did, and they said nothing was wrong with the glasses, even though I had checked the prescription and seen they were incorrect. One of the pairs also had a twisted frame - something they said had happened in the post. Given that the glasses were in a hard case I fail to see how that could happen. They then returned the two pairs to me. One pair had the lenses on the correct side but one was chipped so I can't wear them and the second is still wrong and both 'arms' are scratched. Both pairs are covered in fingerprints. The same independent optician has confirmed that the lenses are reversed and she was shocked that any company who wishes to maintain its reputation should send out glasses in such a state. I am now at my wits end as I am the owner of two useless pairs of glasses from a company which appears to be going rapidly downhill. I am more than disappointed by this experience and if you want to save yourself time, money and stress I must, with regret I have to say as their selection of frames is excellent, advise you to go elsewhere.

In response to "Eye-sale" comments from 13th August.

I find it upsetting that you say I do nothing but complain as the first contact was because the glasses were nothing like the photo and had a scratch on them, next because you sent glasses with plain lenses, no prescription at all, then I received a completely different frame and you admitted the photo didn't correspond, then there was an issue with your provision of stock and now there's the problem of reversed lenses. I do not complain for the pleasure, believe me! If i sent 42 emails it is because there were many problems to be solved. The exchange of correspondence also included updates on tracking orders etc. You also have to admit that I said it was a pleasure dealing with you as you had caring customer service up to now. I still have 2 pairs of glasses that I can't wear because of reversed lenses and I don't want my money back, just for you to put the lenses on the correct side with no extra cost to me as it's not my fault. I have never threatened you. I simply said I didn't want to leave negative feedback in spite of everything as customer service used to be so good, but I felt I had no choice as I was getting nowhere. Please will you agree to fix these unusable glasses?

Thank you.

Follow up on 27 Sept 13 - To note that since leaving this review you have gone on to place 3 more orders for glasses form us.
------
We are sorry that you are so disappointed with our service and we take our customer feedback very seriously and always try to resolve customer issues as we have with the orders you refer to above.
However, you placed your first order with us in February this year and you have continued to place a total of 16 orders with us. Unfortunately we have received a total of 42 email complaints from you starting immediately after your first order in February (including threats to leave negative Trustpilot reviews) and we have tried to resolve these in every instance and normally at our cost.
I would also note that you requested we return the three pairs of glasses to you that you had sent to us because you did not like one frame and felt two pairs had been produced incorrectly.

Customer service contact was poor.

I was trying to buy 2 pairs of glasses, one for my wife and one for myself. Absolutely no issues buying a pair for my wife but I completed the on-line "Contact us" form requesting some assistance and still haven't received a response!

We are very sorry but we discovered an issue with our "Contact us" form on the website (which has now been removed) which was resulting in emails not being sent through to us. However, our customer service email address can be found towards the bottom of each web page. If you could contact us directly at info@eye-sale.com we will be more than happy to help.

Just the way to buy

This does work well. Lots of cutomer service when you need it, great value for money and quality brands that you can trust. See you next time.

Fantastic Value

Well impressed with eye-sale - ordered on line which was easy to use even though i had a little problem with my wowcher code (nothing to do with eye-sale) but after copying and pasting the code no problem.
Lots of different designer choices at really great prices.
I got Vogue sun glasses and they were delivered to my home within 5 days no problems whatsoever.
I am so glad they are excellent quality and i cant wait to wear them on my forthcoming holiday next week. I will be like Jacki Onassis ha ha

Forgot cleaning cloths!

Love the discount given for designer glasses. Arrived before scheduled delivery date. Only issue is that with both my orders, a cleaning cloth was not included in the case.

We are sorry to hear that you did not receive your cleaning cloths. I believe you made contact with our customer service team who have now sent you free luxury 12" cleaning cloths for your sunglasses at no charge.

Wowcher

Can't really fault any part of it. Must admit didn't have high expectations as hadn't gone through trying on numerous pairs to pick a pair and hadn't had measurements done like in opticians. With the wowcher deal I used - what a bargain!!!!! Very good customer service and communication too.

eye dales costomer service is very good

Eye sale kept me informed at all times, and sorted any problems out, this is the first time that i have bought online and have been really pleased only downside that i can think of is that one of the nose clips need slight adjustment this is usually something that is done at the opticians and is always face to face so unfortunately eye sale can not sort that. This is only down to the fact that its an online service
I could take a photo and send them back and I am sure that eye sale would sort it out but for such a small adjustment its better for me to sort it locally

Very thorough service with good communication throughout.

I love this website, I've bought 3 pairs of glasses from them and with every pair, the service was exceptional. When I purchased some sunglasses, I had made a mistake with the order and someone contacted me immediately to clarify the issue.
The only problem that I have is that you can't try any prescription glasses before purchase and they cannot be returned. Also, one pair of glasses I bought are too loose and need adjusting slightly. The fitting service is quite important to me so I do find this a little frustrating.

Great glasses but very slow delivery.

I got a groupon voucher for the website (a £59 voucher for £12.99) so my glasses were great value! Lovely glasses; came with a matching case and cloth. Delivery took about 2 weeks though, which was a pain as I needed them immediately. I was kept updated on the delivery stage via email though. Would use the website again :)

Fantastic price and service. Glasses exactly to my presciption. Very pleased!

I had broken both pairs of my High Street glasses, when I received an email voucher from eye-sale. This gave a very competitive price. I had some reservations about buying glasses online, but the keen price swung my decision. It was easy to enter my prescription details, and the eye-sale webcam PD tool is very slick! .Eye-sale provided detailed email updates during the entire order / delivery period. The glasses arrived in a timely fashion, exactly to my prescription. I would strongly recommend eye-sale!

Brilliant service and quality product

I decided to try buying glasses online for the first time. The website was quick, informative and easy to use. I chose my glasses, entered the prescription and pressed the button. My glasses turned up in record time, packed well and I have to say that I am really pleased with them. I would certainly buy again

Great range of glasses to choose from at half the high street cost. Would recommend trying on glasses in a shop first to get your measurement . Love my glasses they are spectacular :)
