I popped into scrivens today for a routine eye test. This has been my opticians for over 10 years and they have always been really accommodating. I was welcomed by Becky who was absolutely lovely. I was seen very quickly and the optometrist was really helpful. He listened to all my questions and gave me useful feedback. I needed new glasses so becky and her colleague assisted me. They were both super helpful and friendly! I’ve found a shape that suits me and couldn’t be more greatful for their help this afternoon! I couldn’t fault the service or staff, I would always recommend scrivens😊

This is not a complaint about service the shop assistants were very helpful The hearing aids I was given were no use to me as I could not get the batteries in or out as I have very arthritic fingers and I live on my own I asked for plug in ones but was told not on NHS so I have had to buy private ones What a waist of money for NHS for an extra few £s I am sure there are others like me

Morning All, I had my earing test on Friday 31 October at Hamstead Branch. What can I say, well on entering the shop I was greeted by a very professional young lady ,who took my details . Then time for my test. Moehamed was the man in charge today. This Man was so good at is job. First he showed me my results from the test. And explained everything to me from start to finish. And he answerd all my questions. He set up my new earing aids and that was me all done walking out with earing aids. Thanks to all the team at Hamstead, Most of all thank you Moehamed for listening to me and being excellent at your job. I can't wait to get home and pair my earing aids to my phone. Yes they are Bluetooth, app download really pleased, NHS aids as well Thanks again. 😊

Scrivens branch on Upper St Giles, Norwich have been looking after my eye care for some years now. All the staff are friendly and helpful and Judy the manager goes out of her way to give best care and service. Today I went in to get my 3 pairs of glasses adjusted after about 6months of wear. This comes as after care from buying glasses from the shop. I highly recommend this branch particularly.

The staff at the branch in Waterlooville, Hampshire were most helpful and particularly tolerant of us oldies who are not great with some modern technology. Helping to put controls onto the phone has been a great asset.

Scrivens took over from Chime who lost the NHS contract in Exeter. I had had excellent service from Chime. Scrivens have given me appalling service, largely because staff are working with ancient or cheap system and computers. After my hearing test, computer crashed and lost all my data so had to re-do test. On my return to collect new hearing aids, system caused delays so I had to wait. The system could not print out my results so I had to photograph the computer screen (staff are not even able to email results to me). I was offered new hearing aids that I refused as they were much bigger, clunkier, more obtrusive and fiddly than my old ones - looked like an old design in comparison. I do not recommend Scrivens.

We were served at the Feltham branch by Muna and her colleague. We stopped for a quick replacement of nose pads that had broken on a pair of my glassses. Such attentive and quick service, hospitality, and genuine professionalism. A real delight. They even ensured my glasses fitted correctly by tightening the arms. Thank you!!!

We had a very poor experience when our 90 year old mother had a peripheral vision test at Kidderminster. The young woman performing the test was ill mannered, totally unhelpful and rude. It left mother quite shaken and upset by this persons treatment of her.

My elderly Mum has been under Dominic now for some months and I have to say he has been excellent with her. She now has private hearing aids and is very happy with them. He is always available to talk to and is very patient and caring with her, after care is very good. Thank you Scrivens.

I purchased a set of hearing aids which were ridiculously expensive. They continually go quiet then pop and work temporarily. They have been sent off for repair and I had no aids for two weeks. Worked on and off since. I clean them as per instructions. I am now going to return for a full refund. Not recommended

Appointment for sight test on October 23 at the New Milton branch. After a short questionnaire I was seen immediately by the young optician who listened to what I said, answered my questions and thoroughly checked my eyesight. I was extremely happy with the courtesy and treatment I received and very pleased I had chosen them after I moved here.
