Extremely Terrible Service
I made the poor choice of visiting the Lenscrafters Optique location in Clairemont on Feb. 5. It was the closest optometrist to me and I was in desperate need of a new pair as my current ones were literally falling apart. I had an eye exam and purchases two pairs of glasses: regular and prescription sunglasses. All told, I spent over $1000. I was originally told my glasses would be ready within 5-10 business days. The following Friday I called the store to get an update on my glasses as the hinge on my old one broke and I had to glue it back together. I was told that my sunglasses would arrive on Tuesday and my other pair would arrive on Wednesday. Tuesday came and I was notified that my sunglasses arrived. I asked if my others would still be ready the next day so I could pick them both up at the same time. I was told, yes. Wednesday came and no one called me so I contacted the store and was told the glasses would be ready Thursday or Friday, despite being told twice they would be ready on Wednesday. Fast forward to Friday and, again, nobody has contacted me. I call the store and was told the glasses wouldn't be ready until Monday. I was offered absolutely no explanation as to the reason why I repeatedly given incorrect information nor any apology as to the repeated mistakes. Never did anyone at the store offer to update me on the situation or to expedite the process. The employees were nice enough to me when I first went to the store, but as soon as they got my money, they couldn't give a damn about me.
I urge any readers to avoid Lenscrafters. Do not give them your money and do not accept anything their workers tell you.

Faulty product/no warranty
Bought a pair of glasses-overpriced at $525., but my wife liked the frames & service was fast. At 12 1/2 months, the layers in the lenses started to separate, glasses were unusable. The co. inisisted on their "0ne-year-warranty", couldn't help. After complaining to our State Dep't of consumer affairs, we got a response from the co. - They would replace the glasses -at half-price! we might have accepted a new pair free, but will not give them another dollar for a clearly defective product. Other glass shops we took them to said they'd never seen anything like it.

Unacceptable Service
Over $600 and two months later, I had two pairs of glasses, one with an improper lens, and the other with a cracked lens. Had to go through 3 doctor visits. Sure wish I had read about the poor service of this company. Went to another company and a week later I have a great pair of glasses. Meantime, I'm stuck with two pair of overpriced, worthless glasses. Don't let LensCrafters employees tell you, "Nothing is wrong with the glasses, they just take a while to get used to." All they want to do is get you past the 30 day guarantee return date. Don't let them change the quality of the lens to less than what you originally ordered. When the company gets irritated, watch out that they don't over tighten your lens in the glasses on purpose so they crack. Avoid buying from LensCrafters! They have my money and I have worthless glasses.

Over a month and still have not recieved glasses
After a bad experience 4 years ago I decided to give Lens crafters another chance. January 9th, 2011, I had a eye exam, ordered glasses and paid for them in full. I was told it would be no longer then 2 weeks and i would have my glasses. Needless to say, I pay over 600 dollars for my glasses. It is now February 4th, 2011 and I have yet to recieve my glasses. I recieved no curtisy calls to explain the situation. I have had to call each week only to get a run around and attitude. I personally will never be a customer there again I have had the same exaxt problem twice, 4 years ago and present. I realize it is not a fluke its Lens Crafters that is the problem...

Bad service
I bought a pair of glasses and frames in September of 2010. The frames apparently have a painted on tint. This tint stared to peal off, but it didn't bother me at first because it was not noticeable on the outside of the frames. It then started to peel off on the outside of the frame, so I went to LensCrafters and all they would offer me was a new frame @ 50% off. This is a defect of the frame and not damage, so I would expect LensCrafters to replace them at no charge. I was told that it was past the 90 warranty and that they would not replace them. I asked them if it meant that they were loosing a customer and they just said "I'm sorry, but that is our policy" Where is customer service these days to gain customer loyalty?

No customer service... one month still no glasses
I have been a customer of Lenscrafters, in Beachwood, OHIO for years...for not only myself, but my husband and my parents. We ordered my husband $800.00 glasses on 12/24/2010...It is now January 18, 2011 and still no glasses...There is little recourse, because we only had to pay $200, since our insurance picked up the rest.
Unfortuntaely, by this being an end of the benefit year purchase, we don't want to deal with the hassle of trying to get another company to cover the new glasses thru 2010. Anyway, after personally stopping by the store weekely, after the promise date of January 2, 2011, being told it will be here in 2 days EACH time I went.. I have finally had enough. I went into the store one last time, for two reasons...to understand why, throughout this situation the only communication with them has come from me...they not once called to give me or my husband any kind of update...and also to get the info for the District manager, becuase clearly the store manager has dropped the ball. It took the employees 20 mins. to come up with the corporate address and and 877 number...
On top of that, they sent a tech upfront to talk to me. The only reason I could see is that they felt that because i was African American and he too was African American, that maybe he could get me to not be upset.. Unfortunately for them, there is a reason why he is not a customer facing employee.. He proceeded to try to argue and overtalk me.. all in hopes to convince me that the loaner pair of glasses, they decided to offer today, would satisfy me.. And when I told him that I truly have no desire to have them he cotinued on, as if ignoring my request would make me take them...
Needless to say, no resolution...no promise for the glasses to be here before "at best next Monday, " and all they want to do is offer me 25% off what I paid out of pocket...

additional charges
went to store today to get glasses. I took a printed out copy of the frames I wanted, and my insurance information. when the glasses were done they had used the wrong frames(more expensive ones) and added an optoion to the lenses without discussing any of this with me. My insurance did not cover this extra stuff. and the lens option was not needed for reading glasses. I dont think it is right to have to pay for stuff i didnt ask for, and the fact that she got the wrong frames when I gave her a print out from your website with an I.D. number on it and it wasnt caught till they were done should not be my problem. But im the one who had to pay out of pocket for these problems. This was the first time I have been to lenscrafters, it was not a good experience I guess I am hoping that you will make it right before I decide if I will go again, to another store Thank you.
Tawnya Everett.

Misleading service
When I came in for my eye exam I showed the guy my insurance card. I told him I that my insurance pays for my eye exams, my lenses and $75.00 off my frames. He looked at me and said nothing. I went in for my eye exam, picked out glasses as well as sun glasses. When we said down to do paperwork he informed me I was out of network for my insurance. That they could give me 15% off my eye exam and 30% off my glasses. He knew I was out of network the whole time and said nothing. How unprofessional and unethical. I work in the health professional, we always tell a patient immediately that they are out of network. You don't wait until the person racks up a bill to tell them. I was expecting not to pay for my eye exam but instead I had a $50. bill. I would never do business with them again.

Horrible Customer Service and They Don't Stand Behind Their Warranty
I bought a pair of Oakley glasses from Lenscrafters on July 17th 2010. I only needed a backup pair of glasses, since I wear contacts most of the time, but certain frames give me headaches because I have TMJ, so I ended up choosing a frame by Oakley that fit similar to my non-prescription Oakley sunglasses (because they are the most perfect fitting frames!) In the store, I wore the frames around (with the non-prescription lenses in them) and they fit great! I usually have the problem of glasses falling off my face because they are too wide at the temples or just because I have oily skin, but these actually fit! I told one of the employees that those were the ones I wanted, paid, and was told that I would be contacted when the glasses were finished.
**This is where all the problems started**
I went back to the store a couple days later to pick up my glasses, and I made sure to try them on before I left, good thing, because they were stretched out! It took about 20 minutes worth of heating and bending and heating and bending to get them back to near- normal. They said it may take a few adjustments to get them right, which I didn't like, but I went with it.
Now, it's September, and I have been back several times to adjust the frames and they still are not right! When they are adjusted, and fit correctly, I try to wear them, but they come out of adjustment within an hour! I can't take it anymore, so I took the glasses and the receipt back to the store and asked what they could do for me under their 90 day guarantee. **SHOCKER** They said there was nothing they could do except keep adjusting them! I was so angry at that moment, I told the manager that I just want them to take the glasses back and give me a refund! Obviously, they didn't want to lose any money, so they offered free adjustments and cleanings whenever I needed them (umm, I thought that was offered to EVERYONE, ALL THE TIME.) When I refused, and told them that I would be satisfied when they give me my money back, the manager said that he would not do that because it had been over 30 days since I bought my glasses! I reminded him of the "90 day UNCODITIONAL MONEY BACK GUARANTEE" that the company so boldly advertises, and without hesitation, he said "Oh, you don't get that, you bought your glasses the day before that started."
WHAT???!!! I could not believe it! I was so mad that I left the store before I said some very unprofessional things! That evening, I sent an email to Lenscfrafters Customer Service telling them how dissatisfied I was (AM!) The next day I received a call saying that they were contacting the store manager concerning the situation, and that I would receive another call in a few days. The day after that, the local store manager called and said that he absolutely would not refund my money, that he would only adjust my current frames. Then he said "Or I can exchange those frames for a less expensive pair of 'regular' frames- but I won't refund the difference." I told that guy "NO WAY" that I was not being scammed out of any more of my money, and that I would contact the regional manager, or higher, and attempt to solve my problem that way. He tried to intimidate me by telling me that all problems come down to the store manager, and that I would only be dealing with him, not anyone with more authority.
My thoughts right now are as simple as this: We'll see about that.
