I tried the chat function on their website, no response. I sent a message on their facebook page, no response. After my second email to customer service they responded by saying "we'll let you know when it's on its way". I emailed back to ask them to specify if I should wait a day, a week or a month but of course nobody bothered to reply. There's no option to cancel the order so I'll have to talk to my credit card company to get my money back. I'm sure they're lovely people in the store but their online customer service is non-existent.

Great experience at this trendy glasses shop from Australia…read more They have loads of different frame designs, and easy to understand tiers of pricing. Their optical eye test was also very professional, using state of the art equipment and one of the most comprehensive eye tests I've done. You should book ahead of time though instead of just turning up. The glasses are trendy, and the pricing seems reasonable - not the cheapest, but also not super expensive. Service was also very friendly and helpful, and I will definitely be back!

There are a couple of hundred frames to choose from and, of course, all are designed in France and are ridiculously exquisite. They have a really fancy sunglasses section too. I was surprised that not only the optometrist was extremely skilled, but that the sales staff also seemed to be optical experts, with specialist knowledge about physics lesson stuff like lens thickness versus prism refraction... You'd think all this would cost an arm and a leg and yet it doesn't, they have frames for £40 (going up to £180 for the suuuper fancy ones) with the second one half price. The eye test is free. Seriously, this whole experience is ludicrously high end. Why doesn't every person in London go here?

Horror followed by complete and utter confusion about which glasses to wear. I am a bit of an aesthete, and a fussy one at that, after all... David Clulow in Covent Garden however, eased the horror of buying my first pair of glasses. Stocking a slightly different range of brands to the other David Clulow stores, this optician's Covent Garden outpost is the place to find hard to find spectacles by the likes of Alain Mikli and Marc Jacobs. I settled upon a rather retro pair by Mr. Jacobs and managed to haggle 20% off the price of the frames. The lenses were fitted for me on the spot - this usually takes five odd days - and the service was impeccable. Overall I would highly recommend David Clulow Covent Garden.

General knowledge: as an official reseller, you should be helping anyone who purchased the brand for the after sales services. The salesgirl attitude wasn't good at all looking away from me while we're talking because she knew she couldn't earn commission from me.

Bad organised place, poor management! They left my wife suffering without glasses until the frame arrives in the store (today is day 5 no calls from them, yet)! It seams that they don't care about old frames and purposely broke them to make you buy new frames! Not very genuine merchant?

Ok, there is more. They don't really get into the selling style, and they are the largest eyespecialists I've seen in Central London. Its almost like a glass house. From the light weight titanium frames to the plastic stuff, they are very updated in their business. I've seen them with the other customers thats how I know a bit. Always turning things around the store just like we do at home, these services have designed a unique customer service.

There were 4 employees, and a middle aged blonde lady with glasses was very frazzled, saying to wait, then taking other customers. She had a very rude tone, after telling us that they only do eye exams on fridays, she referred us to Vision Express. And, that's the only reason I'm giving them 2 stars because the employee at Vision express was very kind and helpful. You should know if a customer is asking for an emergency eye exam, it's probably because they can't see where they're going. You're in a vulnerable state, and should be more understanding!
