This was my second visit to Scrivens Hunslet where I was seen by Clare both times.Here knowledge, care and explanation of the procedure she was explaining throughout my visit was exemplary. She had a friendly professional attitude which made me comfortable throughout my visit. Highly recommended and a credit to Scrivens Hearing.

I went to Gosport Scrivers branch for a hearing aid. There was a young consultant who helped me with my hearing aid. Her name was Abi Warrington. She was very friendly, smiley and exceptionally helpful, knowledgeable, and professional.

I was fitted with NHS hearing aids at my Drs surgery at the beginning of August 2024. At the time, when the right ear was fitted I experienced the most excruciating pain. I was utterly shocked, and found the experience and lack of compassion appalling. I was sent away with my new hearing aids and a very sore inner ear. I proceeded to have my ears checked for any hardened wax or was it infection. Nothing was evident but was recommended to use an ear spray until it settled. I tried to insert the aid on my right hand side on another few occasions with the same result. I then called Scrivens helpline and explained my dilemma. The only local appointment I could be offered was the 1st November 2024. Due to disability issues, I needed local. So this is now making my scenario a three month experience and even then my wait could be exacerbated if they are unable to replace them at my appointment. I was told when I called that there were smaller or moulded hearing aids available. Nothing was referred to this effect when I had the painful experience at the time of fitting. My ears could well have been damaged by the force used to insert them. I was then sent a feedback questionnaire to complete and a reminder that it had not been completed. I've not been able to wear them to comment so not applicable applied throughout. I'm guessing I was not referred directly to the NHS Audiology Dept. to save time and money. You can decide for yourself!

I recently had my eyes and ears checked at Scrivens in Ely (Cambs) & went on to purchase hearing aids. The whole process was excellent, the customer service and attention to detail to answer all my questions made me feel at ease, (as it was my first time wearing hearing aids). I highly recommend the service provided by the Ely branch,

My mother purchased private hearing aids over 2 years ago, the service was amazing which makes it hard to give Scrivens any negative feedback. However, around July time, a few weeks before I paid for the Essential Care package I emailed requesting some more batteries and wax filters. All that was sent was 2 packs of filters. I assumed that because it was coming up to the 24 month mark you might have been waiting to see if we took out the care package before sending anymore. Once I had renewed and my mum had seen the HAA at our local branch I put in another request, nothing was sent. I purchased some batteries and filters myself as she was about to run out. I then emailed again a week ago asking for some to be sent, again we are still waiting, it looks like I will be having to purchase them myself again. Why do you state this comes under your Essential Care when your ignore customers requests for supplies? Edit - after sending another email yesterday, she has today received just 2x more white tips but still no batteries. Despite 3 requests, my mother has not received batteries now since March, not good enough.

Your customer sevice levels at your Havant branch need reviewing. No one person seems to have been trained in customer relationships . Staff remain seated at their desk, do not greet or direct any potential new customers . The turn around time for ear moulds is excessive at 4 / 6 weeks and i am still only able to use one of my two hearing aids due to a poor fit to my ear . The other aid falls out during any strenuous exercise. I had 20 years of excellent sevice at a local NHS Hospital and your companies appointment is a backward step.

The actual hearing test at Droitwich was very good but have had to wait 7 weeks for the hearing aid and also had to call you twice to chase up.
