After waiting months to get new hearing aids, they only worked for two weeks. Had several conversations with Scrivens staff but they were unable to help and this resulted in me having to rely on one hearing aid only. Can't get appointment for 2 months and the hearing aids have now been returned. At least they sent a prepaid package to post them back. Very disappointed with faulty aids and lack of support from this company

Visited your Milton Keynes branch to get spectacle lenses changed after a cataract operation. This required the ordering of a new lense. The whole operation only took four working days from ordering to delivery. This was very, very impressive and the lady who carried it out is a credit to you.

I recently used your Altrincham shop. I cannot recommend highly enough the staff I encountered. They were all beyond kind, helpful, and professional. I won’t be going anywhere else from now on. Thank you. Best. Dermot.

I took my 97 year old mum to Scrivens in Mill Hill, and now this will be her new optician! Amazing service, lovely staff, and overall an extremely good experience. Had a not so good experience at another optician earlier in the year, so Scrivens is a breath of fresh air! My mum is very fussy, and for her to be happy, is really something. My mum also liked the type of eye test - they use the traditional 'spectacles' where they insert different lenses to determine your refraction / prescription. We are very happy!

I have used Scrivens ever since they arrived in Thirsk. Staff change but the service and care do not. My contact lens care and eye tests are thorough and carefully managed. They always have time to assist and give advice. Thank you.

Having just been for my annual eye test at Scrivens new premises in Ripley I am pleased to say that I found the experience very enjoyable. I was looked after by Lizzie who was very amicable and nice to talk to. She was very helpful in helping me choose my new glasses

* Everything was excellent. * Emma at Malton went above and beyond to help. * Another personal service from Scrivens in Malton. * The ladies do all they can to help and there’s excellent pricing that beats a large chain brand! * trustworthy * don’t go for the higher priced frames * don’t push extras on you * listen to what you need, * listen to your budget * give the best prices that are genuine. * 7 working days from measurements taken to receiving glasses (far better than specs who take 2 weeks, sometimes longer!) * friendly and welcoming staff who put you at ease * relaxed environment The ladies remembered a frame I’d picked out months ago! Scrivens in Malton give a truly personal and customer based experience. Can’t get better than Scrivens.

After 3 unsuccessful attempts to resolve a simple issue with the customer care team on the phone, in exasperation I went into the Orchard Square branch of Scrivens in Sheffield. How wonderful and refreshing to be greeted by Abigail who not only listened but went above and beyond to ensure my problem was sorted immediately. She was extremely professional and personable and a true ambassador for the company. Thank you so much Abigail. It is just so disappointing that the customer care team seem so ill equipped to do the job for which they are employed.

The staff is extremely helpful and lovely, all except the manager who is surly and negative and creates a bad atmosphere. She doesn't try to put you at ease, doesn't smile, and makes you feel uncomfortable. I am not going to go to Scrivens in Malton again.

I went today for a routine checkup at Hythe. Very professional and friendly. Very thorough eye check and free hearing check included. No sales pitch or pressure to spend more than necessary. Great choice of frames. Highly recommended.
