Lack of salesmenship
I went to lenscrafters today in Taunton, MA and the guy was rude and agravating. I asked what kind of special do you have going on? He said 50% off, any thing else? but he did this with an attitude like your bothering me. i said yes do you think you will have my record on file? he said maybe why? well these glasses that i have got these big bloches on them and its giving me a headach. he said you spilled some kind of chemical on them. i did not but any way. i said can you look it up so i can get a new pair. he said no we wont have it its to old you need an exam. what? to old you dont put this on the computer. what ever dude I would rather pay full price some ware else than to give them a single dime of my money

Never again
I was under the impression, from advertisements, that Lenscrafters was the best place to go for inexpensive eyewear, as well as good eye doctors.

I had an exam by one doctor, then had to have a repeat exam, because the first doctor got all my information incorrect, lens were wrong, strength was wrong... then after seeing the second doctor, they ordered my glasses I picked out. Those glasses were sent back five times, and it took a total of five months to receive my glasses.

I would NEVER return to this place!!! Besides, the prices are very high and their work is not that good.

Incompetent staff
Lenscrafters, Mall of Prince Georges. Only 2 incompetent staff working there! overpriced, waited a month to get glasses that one of the incompetent staff told me had been sitting there for 2 weeks, after I repeatedly called and was told that they were not back. I told you staff was incompetent...why would they tell the customer that your glasses have been sitting here for 2 weeks!I am not going to go into detail about this store, but I will say...you will never, ever get another dollar of mine! Your "quality assurance" is defined as - Staff digs through a pile of blue trays, pulls out a pair of glasses and sprays on a solution. Then wipes them down and put on your face. Then they act like you are taking to long while trying to see if they are okay. Wonder why you have so many complaints...pay your staff a decent salary, and they will perform better! Remember..."word of mouth is the best advertisement that any store can get"! I should have had a clue when a lady made a comment about waiting a long time and walked out!

I know someone from your staff will respond to this...I don't really care what you say. Just like I read what others had to say, after I ordered glasses. I hope someone will read this and see what they are getting in to before they order glasses!

disorganized customer service
I went in to get my glasses adjusted on Friday before the 4th of July holiday week-end. after 10 minutes, Kyle told me to sign in before i can get help. so, i signed in. then he got to my name and told me that he cant help me, that i would have to wait for bob or maria and for me to sit down. i guess he marked my name off and didnt tell the other 2 that i was next. so, several other people went ahead of me, then melissa came over to see if i need help, here again, same story, she couldn help me. why???? then i finally approached bob and told him i needed an adjustment. while he was adjusting my glasses, he had to answer the phone 3 times and get up to help another associate, while useless kyle was standing in the back not doing a thing. if every assocaite cant help me then why are they there wasting the company time and my time? bob was cordial with me. but i still wont be back to lenscrafters. too many people not knowing how to do simple things like put a screw in. 35 minutes later i was fixed. the actual repair took less than 3 minutes. i asked bob why he had to help me and he said the "new people" cant do repairs. so how are they going to learn, he wasnt even observing? it was a very frustrating expereice !!! why have a sign in sheet and not use it. Dont ask for kyle or Melissa (hint)

Exam Cost
I went to the Fox Valley Lenscrafters on 6/16/10 for my 5:30 appt. I got there on time and was told to sit in a waiting area. A lady got me and took me back to the initial exam room. She was kind of pushy. I said that I wanted a contact lens exam and she said "So you want the Comprehensive Exam" and then proceeded to do the initial testing. I saw the eye doctor, who was great, and was fitted with my new contact lens Rx. Great. All is good so far.

Then the same lady started getting really pushy with my frames choice. I've had glasses since I was 8. I can handle picking frames. I am the type who likes to not have salespeople bother me when I'm looking. LOL she MUST have been commission based because she scowled every time I said I wouldn't pay more than $150 for frames. Anyway, I finally picked frames she liked and we went to do the paperwork. She kept adding things to the order to my lenses, like coating etc without asking me! The initial total for the glasses was about $800! OMG. I finally got her down to what she said was my "final total" of $388. I was expecting about $350-$400 for my bill since it is convienient to get the glasses in an hour and be done with it. I also wanted to give my eyes a break from contacts. That is also about what I paid the last time I got new glasses.

Anyway, she then says my total is $536! Apparently, my "final total" didn't include my "comprehensive exam" which totalled $148! I was expecting the exam to be $75 for a contact lens exam. Apparently, she added extra exams without telling me. Ok, it can be argued that I should have been paying attention but how am I supposed to know what a comprehensive exam is? I said I wanted a CONTACT LENS exam. By now, it's 7:30 and I'm tired of arguing so I just pay the bill. Then she says that I have to wait two weeks for my glasses! Getting the glasses that day was my whole reason for going there and I invested 2 hrs of my life there. If they are not there in exactly two weeks, I will return my order.

And I was supposed to get 30% off my exam because of my motor club but she didn't enter it. I also was not given my contact lens prescription. I think she was mad because I said I'd order my contacts on my own after I got the $536 "final total"!

Twice lied to me, never again
Lens Crafters at a Des Monies location twice has promised me glasses upon accepting payment and has twice failed to deliver. Sales persons at this store have either been poorly trained, or have blatantly lied about delivery dates. Twice fooled but never again. I have had good experiences with the Valley West Location. I've not purchased from the Jordan Creek location. Do the math and figure it out. Attention Lens Crafters, read the book "Over Promise and Over Deliver"...pay particular attention to the "over deliver". I'm in a service delivery business and I find this experience totally disappointing. Close this store or get it right!!

Poor Customer Relations & Deceptive Advertising
I went to Lens Crafters originally for an eye appointment, and then to purchase a pair of glasses with one of there promotional offers. I purchased a pair of Versage frames for the new lenses. The lenses were coated with an anti glare coating, on what I come to find out was cheap plastic lenses. Lens Crafters sure has a con job way of padding the price for a pair of glasses. I was promised a quick delivery, and they were late by almost two weeks. When I did get the glasses the lenses did not even fit the frame, so I had to wait while they fixed there screw up. After only a few weeks the coating and lenses scratched using there soft cloth that came with the glasses. When I complained about how bad the coating had become several months later, they said the warranty had expired. Now let me get ths straight, I pay over $500.00 for glasses and they won't even last a few months??? To make matters worse, after a year the "Versage" frames literally feel apart at the spring loaded hinge, and when I called about ths too, I ws told there was nothing that could be done about it. You know what Lens Crafters, we all work hard for our money, and when we shell out good money for crappy product it *** us off. Now I have a $500.00 pair of glasses that are both scratched, and non-functional. I will be filling a complaint with the Better Business Bureau, and the Indiana State Attorney Generals office for deceptive business practices. My best advise is to not walk away from these guys, BUT RUN away from them. There are too many good companies out there that do not stoop to the level of Lens Crafters.

Discriminates Against Minority Customer
My friend and I were going to pick up a pair of prescription glasses at the Lenscrafters at North Park Mall in Dallas. He had already paid $550 for the glasses that had to be special ordered for the prescription. As we approached the store a tall saleswoman approached me with a coupon and free lens wipes. She ignored my friend. When we walked into the store she continued to ignore my friend and only focused on me. I didn't realize it at the time but she had done this to him before. It became obvious that she wanted to serve me because I am white and not my friend because he is Asian (with dark skin). We were the only customers in the store, which made the situation very awkward. My friend was so upset he could not stay in the store until management could resolve the situation. On our way out the customer service supervisor apologized and said that the sales clerk was already going to be fired. What is Lenscrafters waiting for? This situation is disgusting and dumb. The company discriminates against paying customers and loses a sale from me. I had brought my new prescription to buy a new pair of glasses. I don't feel comfortable in a store with these poor business practices.

Bad service
I was charged more than was quoted on the phone $1000.00 more. They told me Transition lens and noline bifocals would be a certain price on phone but charged me more. When I went back to the store he went back checked my bill. I should have not told him and amount. He said it was right. So My $100.00 coupon really was not applied. So what I think the price was raised on no-line bifocals & transition lens then They pretended like they took $100.00 off. I got played. You call for price. When You purchase them it's a different price.

Bad prescription
I went to Lenscrafters for an updated eye exam and as soon as I put my new glasses on I knew the prescription was incorrect. I had severe headaches and one eye was very blurry and never improved. I went back, to a different lenscrafters and received a totally different prescription which was equally bad. Finally, I went back to the original location only to continue with a bad prescription. I am 39 years old and have worn glasses since third grade. I have never had such problems ever. I don't know what they do but they are no longer a eyecare provider I will trust.
