“Competitive price but poor delivery”

★★☆☆☆

written by AccaRobinsons on 29/02/2020

I purchased a pair of Cutler and Gross frames with decent price and an expected delivery time of "approx 1 to 2 weeks". In reality this turned out to be nearer 10 weeks and required frequent requests for an update. They state they have a 100% satisfaction guarantee but when I stated I was not 100% satisfied I received absolutely NO response. Will look elsewhere in future.

“DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING”

★☆☆☆☆

written by PePer on 14/03/2018

Although their website and online order system looks legit, do not attempt to purchase anything from this company. They did get some positive reviews dating back some years but today the company has nil customer service. I have ordered eyewear in January and paid in full. I did receive an order update quickly to let me know that there will be a 1 to 2 weeks timeframe in shipment. It is now the middle of March and I have not received any updates. I have sent them countless emails, all of which went unanswered. I have requested a refund 3 weeks ago and again no response. Do not purchase anything from this company!!!! Their is no contact information other than an email address but they do not reply!

“4 months and still waiting for my eyewear ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 16/02/2018

I've been waiting for my eyewear for 4 months. After receiving a couple of updates early on I haven't received any communication in over 2 months despite my requests for updates. I've now asked for a refund and haven't received a response to that either. I suspect this company is winding down but can't tell for sure. Looking for legal counsel to help me get my money back.

“Total joke - don't waste your time”

★☆☆☆☆

written by AlissaHenry on 24/01/2018

This is a legitimate company, but just a bit of a joke. They're advertising products and charging customers for items they can't access & customer service and speed of communication is appalling. I placed an order on 28 Oct 2017 with delivery in 2 weeks. Three months later and I have just received a notification that my order won't be processed because they can't access the stock. The exact same glasses are still advertised on their website. Communication has been terrible throughout. On 16 Nov I was emailed to say there would be a slight delay. On 11 Dec I had to email to find out a status update. On 19 Dec I received a replying delivery was awaited. Now on 24 Jan I received an email saying they couldn't supply my glasses. They've had my money for three months. Pathetic operation.

I am currently experiencing the exact same thing, though I placed my order on 14 August, 2017. I had received return contact a few times, but that has stopped completely. Now I just want a refund, but I have not had ANY response in over 2 months. There's no phone number on their site, so the ONLY way to get in touch with them is through email, but again, there isn't a reply.

I have had the same experience! Ordered Nov. 2, 2017 and told delivery will be 1-2 weeks. 3 mths of misleading or unanswered emails and still no glasses. I was apprehensive ordering from a website that doesn't have a contact phone number - lesson learned. Will request cc to reverse charges. What a charade!

“Do not buy anything”

★☆☆☆☆

written by boss007 on 15/01/2018

1. 3 months on and glasses hasn't arrived yet. They said that it could take 2-3 weeks 3 months ago, since than no any communication with them. 2. there is no clear details about company details in the terms & condition, no tel number , company address is invalid and no company registration number and no vat number. 3. do not make any purchase until you speak with any of the staff and I you will not be able to find anybody so forget this online shop.

“appalling and misleading service!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by msabbagh on 08/12/2017

I ordered glasses on Metsuki in June and I have yet to receive them, 6 months later! I found them to have the worst online customer service ever. There is no phone number to reach them at and I seem to only be in touch with one customer service representative who saw no urgency in communicating with me and kept me waiting for weeks on end. Metsuki does not value its customers or their money. I never write reviews but I thought there should be more warnings on the risk that one takes by conducting business with Metsuki! Below is a more specific list of complaints I have about them: - Metsuki claimed the glasses I ordered were available. After I ordered them I received a note that they were going to be a "special order" and take longer than usual to ship. This information should have been available prior to my paying for them, not after. - Whenever I inquired about the status of my order (months after I made the payment). I would receive a short and vague email from their representative. I would usually respond the same day and then they would not respond for weeks. I found this to be really frustrating. - Once I got fed up with waiting I asked for my money back, to which they agreed but then proceeded to not reimburse me. I kept inquiring and they kept stalling. Finally when I got a response they simply said that they now have the glasses and can send them to me. This was of course not true (since I have yet to receive the glasses) and it felt like I could no longer trust them. - Now 6 months later I have not received a response from them in almost 2 weeks. I feel like they are ignoring my emails and I have yet to know if I will be receiving my money back, or the glasses I ordered. This is the last time I conduct business with them and I urge anyone considering making a purchase there to look elsewhere.

Written on: 22/12/2017

Glad I found this, exactly what's happening to me right now. Ordered glasses around mid-September 2017, have yet to receive them late-December. They said initially 1-2 weeks because of a special order, then have been stalling for months. They're always "in the next special order from Germany" and will be shipping "this" week. Good price, and they offered me an additional percentage off, but really just stopped responding to anything.

I can only second these comments - the same story happened to me!
The order was placed in June and despite my explicit wish to refund the money and constant reminders I haven't heard back from them in weeks.

Just wondering what steps to take next...

I've been through exactly the same horrible experience being sent faulty varifocals and claiming in vain for a refund that was never received. Online dispensing opticians are regulated by GOC, General Optical Council and I'm going to fill a complaint against Metsuki. I advise you do the same. Ombudsman could also help.

Exactly what’s happening to me. I have sent countless emails and sought phone numbers through companies house etc, it’s very confusing how this business is set up. I can’t help but feel like I have been tricked out of £300 for the glasses I purchased, and can not get a single update from the company. Am seeking legal help.

Thank you all for sharing as well! I am not sure what to do at this point but it is reassuring that there are others who went through a similar experience and who are also trying to seek legal help. I reported Metsuki to the Internet Crime Complaint Center but unsure what they or anyone can do... Curious to hear what others who have been the victims of this sham have done or are planning to do?

“I got really cheap Orgreen glasses”

★★★★★

written by on 29/09/2017

My optician wanted over $700 for these glasses and I found this company selling them for about two thirds of that with my lenses. I have quite a strong lense and they worked really well, although I was a bit unsure of ordering these online at first. I have never really bought glasses online before but I will definitely be back.

“The firm, by way of their Zendesk (!) took a few weeks...”

★★★☆☆

written by Kidd142 on 28/09/2017

The firm, by way of their Zendesk (!) took a few weeks to inform me that the specs were no longer being made, but that they'd do their best to find me a pair, which they happily succeeded in doing. The earlier anonymous progress reports by mail had not particularly inspired confidence. Support staff with actual names should contact the customer at an earlier stage, as this will give the transaction more of a personal touch.

“Wonderful Customer Service”

★★★★★

written by keewee on 29/12/2012

I ordered a pair of Oakley Ducati Wingspan back on 30 Nov 2012. As the frames were out of stock, they immediately informed me of the stock status and offered to reserve stock or to cancel the order. What I am really amazed was how fast they reacted to my reply and all the subsequent support tickets. Almost all were within the day, and most within the hour! And the frames were shipped within the week, as promised. I'm really impress! Keep up the good work!

“First Class”

★★★★★

written by on 01/12/2012

I am delighted with my purchase, in particular, the great price, Metsuki's ability to fulfil the order within days (when all the other on-line shops were saying no stock available & quoting a waiting time of many weeks), my telephone queries where handled in an honest, friendly and informative manner, and the frame is the quality genuine article. Metsuki gets the full five stars, my recommendation and my return custom in the future.

“New Gant Glasses with Lenses”

★★★★★

written by Tomfinn on 30/11/2012

Wasnt sure whether to go with Metsuki to get the glasses I wanted. I saw the frames in my local opticians for £140 pounds with lenses. Metsuki did the same Gant Frames with prescription lenses for £75!!!! I have only good things to say. The turn around was within 5 days of ordering and receiving. A bargain in my books. Would wholeheartedly recommend Metsuki.

written by on 08/11/2012

I was impressed with the speed of response and communication after the order. My glasses had not been in stock but Metsuki were able to get them in within a day and they arrived with me in Australia within the week, a very prompt delivery. Very happy with the service and product, as I had not been able to find these glasses anywhere else.

Cheap but terrible customer service - hard to get someone to call you back. Also very slow to deliver - should have paid a bit more and used the high street.

Bought my rimless specs from Metsuki about a year ago and recently the lens came away from frame of my specs. Sent back to Metsuki who reminded me that the lens was covered by guarantee, fixed glasses and sent back within a week. This was after really good service when I bought the specs in the first place. Thoroughly recommend this firm to anyone buying specs!
