“The experience from arriving to leaving was amazing. The initial assessment, the test and selection of frames had a personal touch which is so important especially when you need a second opinion on whether or not frame shape and colour is suitable. I can't praise them highly enough the optician, branch manager and team are a credit to the business and I will certainly be returning.”

“In store service good. After sale and repair awful .without hearing aid for two weeks all to be told sent back to manufacturer to be repaired. Would not recommend them as spent a lot of money buying them and entering in to maintenance contract. Don’t feel looked after at all.”

“Visiting Weymouth for the week and a small screw fell out of the lens holder and lens fell out of my sunglasses. Popped in to see if they could repair them and was very happy when the young lady(sorry didn't get her name), came across and took them off me to work her magic. Even gave them a good clean (by the gentleman, sorry didn't get his name) Very happy with the service I got and not have to worry about waiting until I got home tomorrow in this very warm and sunny week.”

“My experience of Scrivens Hearing Care over the last 17 months has been extremely positive. I have had several hearing issues during this time and the standard of care provided by their audiologist at Herne Bay and by their Customer Care Team has been faultless. I have nothing but praise for them.”

“Appalling service from Scrivens who have taken over from CHIME Audiology in Devon, an NHS service. Wrong size tubes fitted on first occasion and now the aids fall apart, audiologist didn't turn up on second occasion and no message left on my phone to let me know she was sick, and now another 5 weeks wait for an appointment to repair the faulty aids I have been left with. Very disappointed.”

“The staff treated as important to them & as I am in pain most of the time they went out of their way to find the most comfortable chair they had for me & to put me at ease. That, on top of the excellent presentation & performance of the product, meant a lot.”

“I have been delighted with the friendly and very helpful customer service offered to me by the new management at Southgate Scrivens. All the staff were extremely welcoming and kind and made me feel extremely comfortable going through the process of my eye test and chosing my frames. There is a very good selection of frames available at a range of reasonable prices and I received my prescription glasses very speedily. I am extremely satisfied with my new glasses and very grateful for the helpful advice I was provided with by the staff in choosing the right frames and lenses for me. I highly recommend Scrivens of Southgate for their excellent service. Many thanks indeed to all the staff and I look forward to my next visit.”

“I have been a customer of my local Scrivens for a few years now and have glasses and private hearing aids with them. I moved from my local store by my house to the New Brighton store just down the road from there and the service is excellent, I cannot express enough how much better the care and advice and helpfulness is from the manager and his colleague, absolutely fantastic glad I went just a little further down the road for this.”

“I have had hearing aids before and never got on with them as I kept got back to try to get all my problems sorted out they did not seem to listen to my concerns so after some years with out using them I gave Scrivens a try well what difference everything was explained to me the test was very thorough.when the hearing aids were fitted the technician was very good set them up perfectly spent time to get it right not like the place I had gone before. The staff were all very pleasant and you made to feel at ease and can't say enough good things about the youg lady technical that did my test and fitting was brilliant so for me the weston super mare store staff were great as they have got my ears sorted I think I will get my eyes done there from now on if the same professionalism is as good as the hearing side of business”

“Took my father-in-law John to Scrivens in Chapel en le Frith: Helen Bamforth looked after us like family! The whole process of a hearing test for John couldn’t have been less painful. Matt ran the through the options etc and John was won over; the new hearing aids are an instant improvement over his aging NHS options! John will soon be celebrating his 90th listening to all his family and friends, and back at his favourite pub 👍❤️”

“10 days ago I ordered a new pair of verifocal glasses; Nikon lenses from the Banbury store (£500) The frames I choose in the store were damaged/had a piece missing. I pointed this out when placing my order and said to the member of staff I would need a new frame not the ones off the shelf as they were damaged. Today I went to collect my glasses only to find it was the damaged pair from the store. Perhaps they thought I wouldn’t notice! Obviously at no stage of producing these glasses has quality control been applied or even common sense! I now have to wait for 🤞new frames and for the store to fit the new Nikon lenses into them. Very poor customer service!”

“I would like to thank you Scrivens for making my appointment with the most wonderful young lady on Wednesday the 4th Sept at Parkview Bromsgrove for my check up and replacement hearing aids she was most charming and efficient in helping and showing me how to set up and use my new aids with Bluetooth. Please forgive me for forgetting your name but a big thank you from me.🤩🤩🤩”
