1. Turned up at wrong branch in Dunstable thanks to agent who booked my appointment over the phone... told to get back in car and to go to the other branch. 2. Best healthcare check ever, the optometrist was so thorough and explained so much was feeling positive.... until ..., 3. Taken downstairs for heavy slick sales pitch with the £89 frames I’d picked now becoming £333 after An initial £425 ...but with me not opting for super dooper glare repellent he’d be able to shave off even more... whoop whoop he’d got it down to £333!!! 4. In a nano second suddenly the card machine is poised and he is rubbing his hands together at the thought of his commission. 5. In a further Nano second the smile is wiped off his face when he realised I’m not about to make payment. Thank goodness for my Apple Pay being faulty. It actually gave me some breathing space to think and realise it is not what I want to do. Breathing space, he’d been so careful not to give me any!! 6. The disappointment is obvious as his vibe completely changed. He insists I call as soon as I get home and ask for him, as he wouldn’t want me to miss out and not get them ordered!! 7. 2 missed calls and 1 voicemail later, chasing for payment. 8. My love affair with Specsavers is well and truly over. Shame because the optometrist was brilliant- the smarmy sales approach not so brilliant. Caution ⚠️ approach with your wits about you, and give yourself time to think over the decision and price.
