Customer service. For a company who deals with hearing issues the option to online contact is appalling. I've had no aids for over 6 weeks awaiting a hospital referral drs still not received. I can not phone you as I can't hear. Off work over 6 weeks now as I work in a call centre so unable to do my job.

Jeannette at Market Deeping is an absolute star. Just a delight to deal with. Incredibly professional and without saying a word is able to get you in the perfect set of glasses. (She has promised me she will only use her powers for good!). Highly recommend Scrivens especially the team in Market Deeping.

I have been with them for over 30 years, and have on occasions had to use others. However, the service and quality of the products produced are far superior to that of the competitors I have used. Sarah, at the Hagley Road West branch, was superb in getting my prescription sorted.

I was delighted with the service I received recently in the Wimborne opticians. A delightful lady helped me to choose new frames and couldn’t have been more helpful. I was also pleased to receive a bill which was less than I expected. Can’t wait now get my new frames.

My criticism is not of my local branch (Palmers Green), which is fine, but of your website. I have just tried to book an earwax removal appointment; I know my local branch do them as the told me so just a couple of weeks ago. There is no way to do it. I'll have to ring them - or I may just go to Specsavers instead.

My glasses frame (less than 8 months old) came apart while I was wearing them today, the staff in Scrivens Opticians, Hallgate, Cottingham, said they were unable to repair them - my only option (other than repairing with superglue or Sellotape) was to order a new frame, presumably the same as the one which has just collapsed, for £139, and they would transfer the lenses across. What is the point in having a pair of glasses that last less than 8 months? Doubtful if I will visit Scrivens again, for eye tests or glasses.

Hi Janet, thanks for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry your experience didn’t match your expectations. It was an uncommon instance and we’ll do better. If you could email customercare@scrivens.com with more information, we would love to make things right if you give us another chance.

I recently attended the Bearwood branch for sight tests for myself and daughter. The staff were absolutely amazing! They were super helpful throughout the entire appointment and when our glasses were ready for collection they contacted me and advised when we could attend due to my daughter needing the optometrist to be on site to check her glasses were correct. Having had my first pair of varifocal glasses the staff were incredibly helpful and reassuring and let me know that I can get in touch if I have any problems getting used to them. I would 100% recommend this branch to everyone! Please pass on my thanks and appreciation to the Bearwood staff!

Used the Burslem, Stoke on Trent store in February 2023. The examination was very professional and thorough and the optician took the time to explain to me that my prescription had changed and what I could expect from new spectacles. All staff were very knowledgeable and gave their time willingly when I chose new frames.

I went to Scrivens for my first eye appointment in many years and the staff there could not have been more friendly or helpful. I would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you to the team.

I have been a customer of Scrivens for quite a while, mostly for glasses but more recently, hearing aids. Not only am I delighted with their products, but with the way I am greeted and the way their staff go the extra mile to ensure my safety, waiting time and needs are given top priority. I congratulate your staff on a first class service. Dave.

Excellent hearing aid service from Sophie today. Not only did she make my hearing aids better but she also set me up with BeMore which through bluetooth makes my hearing aids easy to control. Many Thanks Sophie
