After being a Scrivens customer for glasses for 3years I was offered a hearing test which I accepted. Haley at the Alfreton branch has been excellent giving good advice and then setting the aids up to suit me. I have visited for minor tweaks and nothing has been too much trouble, she even set my phone up to link with the aids. All the staff at Alfreton are really good, always welcoming, friendly and helpful, they even provided me with a cup of tea on a particularly cold day. I wish them all a good Christmas, they deserve it.

It's been a very good experience with the people I've met, unfortunately for the problems I have been experiencing there has been no possibility to mention them in the questionnaire. The battery does not stay in place so the connection is broken. It took ages to work it out.

Had my hearing test, which was fine. However, I was told that I would be referred to the specialist hearing services, which is run by my local hospital. After a week, I contacted the specialist service to see if I could make an appointment (as suggested by the hearing test person) to be told that they had not received my referral yet. I contacted Scrivens, who told me that the referral had been made via my GP. They also told me that it had been done again that day. I contacted my GP, who told me that they had not received any referral from Scrivens for me. I spoke to Scrivens the following day and it was confirmed that the referral had been made twice and also a printed letter had been sent. I asked if a letter could be sent to me and it was confirmed that one would be sent in the post and couldn't be sent by email due to security issues. I spoke again to my GP and they confirmed that they had not received anything from Scrivens. So I don't know who to believe now, but I am stuck in the middle of this having not had any treatment for a year. The ridiculous thing is that the hospital said that Scrivens could have referred me to them directly and not go through the GP. Whatever, the system said doesn't work and it is us poor service users who suffer. I am able to deal with it, but what would happen if it were someone not able to do that?

After noticing that my NHS hearing aids were not working properly, I made an appointment with Scrivens in Abingdon and explained the situation. The audiologist went through all the possible causes of my problem anf eventually found that my hearing aids needed adjustment. he was very thorough and solved the problem. Looking to the future, I asked about private hearing aids and he gave me all the information I needed. A brilliant service. 5*.

I have been using the Hythe branch of Scrivens for a number of years. They are unfailingly kind courteous and highly professional. Recently I had an issue after NHS cataract surgery and Bruce went out of his way to resolve it for me. I always feel well cared for and thank them all for their kindness. Scrivens should be proud of this fine team.

My wife and I had an audio test recently at the Rugeley branch . We are most impressed with the service we received . We would like to commend the audiologist Stuart for his excellent professionalism and his 45 year knowledge . He was able to explain what our hearing problems were in a very informative manner . Ben gave us a full demonstration on fitting , cleaning and after care . Highly recommended

Hannah King tested my hearing at The Windmill practice in Wymondham and also fitted me with new hearing aids. I would like to make the point that I thought she was outstanding in every respect, leading me in no doubt that I had been assessed thoroughly and fitted with the appropriate hearing aids. Thank you, Hannah. Kind regards, Chris Roberts.
