rall, my experience with LensCrafters started off exceptional. Dr. O was great, and Eli, who helped me with my glasses, provided excellent service. Unfortunately, my interaction with Sharon completely changed my experience.
I called because I noticed the progressive lenses were not added, and I simply wanted to get it corrected and pay the difference. Sharon told me someone would call me back in 30 to 45 minutes. I explained that I was at work and didn’t have that kind of time. She put me on hold, and after sitting there for about 10 minutes, I hung up and called back.
When I called back, I explained that I had already been on hold for 10 minutes and asked why I was still holding. Her response was, “I told you someone could’ve called you back.” I asked how much longer I was supposed to hold, and she told me another 15 to 20 minutes. At that point, I’m thinking, seriously? You expect me to sit on hold for 25 to 30 minutes just so I can pay for an adjustment to my glasses? Her response was basically, “Well, we can just give you a refund then.”
What really bothered me was her attitude and the way she spoke to me. When I asked to speak with her manager, she refused and told me if I had a complaint, I could call customer service. When I came into the store to get my refund and explained how rude and disrespectful I felt she had been, her response was, “I just give whatever I get, so if you got a problem, then I got a problem.”
That is where I have a serious issue. If you are in a leadership position, you cannot talk to customers that way. I wasn’t yelling, being disrespectful, or asking for anything unreasonable. I was trying to spend additional money to correct my order. I understand that everyone can have a bad day, but there is a certain level of professionalism and respect that should always be shown to a customer of over 15 years. . I hope this is addressed because I would hate for another customer to have an otherwise great experience with LensCrafters ruined by being spoken to this way.
