Terrible service

Quoted one price on the phone, charged a lot more on the day. Should have got it in writing.

Hi Vicky, sorry the final cost was more than you expected. We should have explained the extra work before doing it. Please contact us and we will go through the invoice with you.

Decent

Decent, a couple of things were missed first time round but they came back to sort it. Would probably still use them again though.

Waste of money

New designer frames gave me headaches for a month. Went back twice and got told to persevere. Went elsewhere, prescription was wrong.
