“Worst Service Ever”

★☆☆☆☆

written by louvre on 22/10/2013

I purchased a pair of glasses online from this company which also use www.feicim.ie as an online website. The glasses were the wrong glasses, we tried to contact the company using the number advertised online - it does not work. We emailed the company no reply, Phoned the number which was based in Jersey to no avail. I have a pair of glasses which are of no use to me and wish to return them. Their policy is a no quibble policy return up to 14 days from dispatch - the glasses were dispatched on 25th September but didn't arrive to me until 2nd October which was 8 days after dispatch which only left 5 days to return. I contacted the company several times but no response. Buyer beware of this comapny.

“Good frames, good lense stock, poor workmaship & service”

★★★☆☆

written by Live2Die on 07/06/2013

I actually bought some glasses from Onespecs about 6 months ago and held back from writing a review as I wanted to test out the quality of their product. The Order ========= The order process was very smooth and I ordered a basic frame from their Icy range, with standard refractive-index lenses and the free anti-reflective coating they were offering at the time. I didn't want to spend too much as I had no idea what to expect, especially seeing as they were based in Jersey. I believe I paid just a little over £20. The Delivery ============ At the time of order I was given a delivery time of about 2 weeks. After 3 weeks, I had heard nothing, so I sent them an e-mail. There was no response to my message, but 2 days later, the specs dropped through my door. The parcel had VAT etc pre-paid, so there was nothing to worry about. The Product =========== The specs came in a metal case, which I thought was nice as most opticians give you plastic ones these days. Immediately on first handling the specs, they made a "creaking" sound. This seemed to come from the lenses moving slightly within the frame. In fact, on closer examination it appeared that the lenses didn't fit the frame well at all. I have high a prescription, which results in thick lenses with the low refractive-index material, and these basic frames were barely able to cope with them. The order process had not brought this issue up at all. What was worse was one lense had a chip on a lower rear edge, probably made when it was being levered in. Considering the previous reports of poor service and the fact that I hadn't had a response to message to them, I decided not to make a fuss, as they were useable and the chip was barely visible to onlookers. 6 Months On =========== The one thing I have been really impressed with is the quality of the Icy frames. After 6 months of everyday use, they haven't started showing any signs of stress aging or deterioration due to body oils etc. And thankfully the "creaking" stopped once the lenses settled in. And the lenses are actually not too bad either, ignoring the chip. Having paid less for them, I treat them bad, but they barely have a scratch on them, which is more than I can say for my previous super-duper scratch resistant ones which cost £150. My Recommendation ================= All in, my recommendation if ordering from Onepecs is that they are good for a basic pair of glasses. I wouldn't spend more money than it would hurt to lose with them, as it seems to be a bit hit and miss what you get. I might even order myself a basic tinted pair one of these days.

“Ridiculously Slow”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Vauxy2013 on 19/03/2013

I live in London and OneSpecs is based in Jersey. They might as well be in Timbuktoo. Placed online oder on March 6, heard nothing for days. Finally an email on March 14 to say the item has shipped. It's now March 19 and we still haven't received our order. Never again!

“Great customer service”

★★★★★

written by on 07/07/2012

Am pleased to say I had a great experience buying from one specs. I ordered two pairs and they came quite quickly. One of the pairs I didn't like at all and it was no problem to send them back and exchange them,they were very helpful over the phone and I had my new glasses quickly. I liked the huge choice of glasses at extremely low prices

“Worst Customer Service Ever”

★☆☆☆☆

written by paulbates3 on 06/07/2012

I order a pair of perscription sunglasses on 6 June. The order status was changed to shipped a couple of weeks later. I am still yet to receive them. I have sent 3 email to them and have had no repies. This is the worst company i have ever ordered from. They are quick to take your money but do not respond to communication. The only reason i gave them one star is because 0 is not an option. STAY WELL CLEAR OF THIS TIN POT COMPANY!!!

“Rubbish service here”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 18/06/2012

This is a very poor online service compared to some other companies. They took over three weeks to produce original order, do not answer emails and do not replace damaged goods. Go to a reputable optician and save yourself some grief.

“Fantastic service”

★★★★★

written by RoisinDubh on 15/05/2012

I ordered two pairs of prescription glasses from onespecs having read about them on another site. Both were from the Icy range so only £15 each + p&p. One pair were prescription sunglasses. Both pairs arrived to me in Ireland yesterday and I have to say I am delighted with them both. I immediately started wearing one pair and as it was a sunny day I wore the sunglasses when out and about. I found both pairs comfortable and true to the prescription and unbelievable value for money. I will be recommending them to others. I cannot think of any negatives except I wish they did varifocals and for the smaller frames too. Perhaps they will think about doing them in the future. I will be ordering a back up pair of sunglasses and have no hesitation in recommending onespecs.

“WORST SERVICE EVER!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Unhappycustomer2012 on 09/03/2012

Sent the wrong glasses - which were used, marked and the frame was chipped. Telephoned to complain - I may as well of talked to the wall! Don't waste your time or money ordering from OneSpecs - absolute disgrace.

Had a very bad experience with dire customer service, similar to femurfan. Will not give any details which may identify me as I have already experienced their vindictiveness.

“Good value but Open Box and a late delivery”

★★★☆☆

written by on 16/09/2011

I suspect it is a widely practiced method by this company, but if it is, it’s not recommended. The Air Optix lenses arrived in a closed box, but the Ciba Vision Focus Dailies, which is a slightly more bulky box (nothing major, but it holds 30 lenses) arrived completely and purposely opened, flattened, while the lenses that were in it were placed next to the flattened box in the envelope. As a doctor, I know that the process of packing these contacts is hands-free, as it should be, in the factory. True, the lenses are still preserved in the foil, but to open a container that was handed by someone (do I know if they even washed their hands before handling the lenses???) is not a pleasant thought and anyhow would mean that the lenses container is no longer guaranteed to be clean, let alone sterile. This is not the way to send contact lenses, even if the box itself could be a bit squashed in the envelope during the delivery if left as is (in a padded envelope, nothing would happen to it for sure). Since there are items in the box that fill it, nothing major would happen to it, and hence there is no need to break the box purposely, flatten it, and take out manually the contacts from within as a preparation for delivery. This is unprofessional and unsanitary. Otherwise, I could deal with the few days of delay in the delivery itself, though another company shipped the same items in two days.

“Onespecs Stay Clear”

★☆☆☆☆

written by femurfan on 04/07/2011

Trawled the internet for prescription glasses and decided to buy them from Onespecs. Easy website to negotiate and order what you want. I ordered the glasses and they arrived within 2 weeks which was very acceptable. I was very happy, but the glasses developed a problem with the nosepad which had split. I contacted customer services who agreed for me to send them the glasses back at there expence to repair. I sent them back and this is where the problems started. I received a very nasty email from Onespecs saying that I shouldnt have sent them for repair as it was only a nosepad and that they were not going to reimburse me the cost of sending the glasses to them for repair even though I had it in writing via email before I sent them back. I complained and got some very nasty emails from them saying it was general wear and tear even though I only had them for approx 2 months. To cut a long story short if you want good quality glasses with good customer care then avoid these at all costs.

Femurfan's Response to femurfan's Review

Written on: 11/07/2011

just to update on the review that I wrote here. I have just received a very nasty email from onespecs saying that my review was unfair and that I have been blacklisted. This is a company that needs some training in customer care? My issue has been all about the customer care and after service I received, as the glasses were faulty, which when you buy a product with a fault you expect good customer care with no hassles. I will say no more.

“Great Value, top quality”

★★★★★

written by Mrloz on 20/06/2011

The title says it all- very good quality at an amazing price. They arrived quickly in a solid case too. My only "complaint" is that the website doesn't prefill your prescription onto your next order; it all has to be entered manually again with the risk of you entering a figure wrongly. I'd like a simple one click "send me another pair to the same prescription" button please.
