I didn't have such a great experience at this location. The real issue boils down to the service I received, or rather didn't receive.
This ordeal started almost a month ago. On my first visit I was assisted by Jean. She basically gave me a box and told me to pick out what I wanted to try on and walked away. A few times I asked her for her honest opinion as to how the frames looked. She was not very helpful. In her opinion, every pair looked great which was very hard to believe. I needed an honest opinion but obviously she just didn't deliver. Really don't think she cared one way or another about her customers experience.
I wound up purchasing reading glasses and sunglasses, both frames were Michael Kors. I am happy with my reading glasses and am keeping them.
They have a 30 day return/refund policy so I went back to look for another pair of sunglasses. Jean was there that day but again she was of no help to me. Dana was very helpful and sat down with me while I tried on several pairs. She went above and beyond to help find the perfect frames for me or so I thought. One pair we both liked came in two colors. I specifically asked if they came in black and was told no, everything they carried was on display. No problem so I went with the brown tortoise. I was told that in 7 to 10 days I would receive a text saying they are ready to be picked up.
While looking on their website I stumbled across the frames I had asked for in black. At this point I was completely aggravated and annoyed. When I asked Dana if they were available in black and she said no, she based her answer on the current inventory they had out on display. She should have looked up the style number on her iPad. If Dana just took this extra step I would have the pair I really wanted.
Today was day 12 and still no text to let me know my glasses came in. I called the store and Jean happened to answer. She told me it would be a few more days, she can't rush the lab, blah, blah, blah. At this point I knew I would cancel the order and just have them refund my credit card. Jean was not pleased by this request. I asked her for the dollar amount of the refund and she told me she had to figure it out and will have to get back to me. I very nicely said thank you and I will be in shortly to wrap up this fiasco.
As I approached the counter I saw Jean. Wow, this woman is not pleasant at all. So, me being me, went out of my way to say hello and asked her how she was. I figured with her cold greeting, perhaps she wasn't having a good day. She told me the store manager would process my refund. I met Julio before and he was helpful, so I thought great, finally someone who knows what they are doing. He completed my refund but I wasn't done with him just yet. I wasn't leaving until he fully understood why I cancelled my order.
Julio did offer to order me the black frames, but I declined because I just didn't want to wait another two weeks.
Dana was helpful, and yes she should have looked online to see if other colors were available, but overall she was very kind and gave me genuine answers. Jean was useless to me. Very rough around the edges, cold personality and because she liked everything I tried on, I can't help but wonder just how honest she is. Just my opinion.
Three stars are due to the fact that Lenscrafters carries a decent selection of frames, they have a good refund policy and I do like the quality of their glasses. Customer service not so much, at least in this store anyway. I am hoping Julio can step up and give his staff the training they so desperately need.
My advice is to look on their website to check out the color selections of any frames you do like. In other words, see for yourself, because you may not always get a straight answer. read more
