Dishonesty and unreliable/rude service
Complaint Rating:  86 % with 7 votes
I placed my order through the internet on June 11, 06, I faxed the Rx to their 1-877 number the next day. Two days later I called them wanted to make sure my Rx had been taken care of and the order was being processed. I was told by the rep that the lenses that I order was in back order status and it would take about 2 weeks to arrive. I said to her thats ok as long as my order had been taken care of.
2 week passed by and on 27th of June I tried checking the status online and it said its still in progress, so I called again and a rep told me that its in back order (again) and I should be able to receive them by next thursday/friday. 2 days later I recieved a email from them saying they had not received my Rx. It got me annoyed because everytime I called they said the order has been taken care of and I should be receiving the lenses on certain certain date. And now they say they havent recieved my Rx?? It was about 8:45pm Eastern time when I called (they closed at 9 Eastern time/10 central) and I spoke with a rep name Samantha (I tried to make sure I knew who I was speaking with so at least I have somebody to refer to the next time I call) She said , again, that order is ok and I should recieve my lenses by next thursday. The next day I called again to make sure the order was ok as said, but turns out they never ordered any lenses for me. I said I needed to speak to the manager and I got transferred to another department (ordering department that is). The woman in ordering department told me that the Rx I faxed in is for a brand name, and the one I ordered was Generic, and they need a Rx that specifies the Generic brand. I got really mad with the time I wasted during the passed 2 weeks calling back and forth, and their rep's dishonesty. So I said I needed to cancel the order and she yelled - okay, thanks for calling lens.com, goodbye (hung up on me)!

I got really frustrated with their dishonesty and unreliable/rude service. Of the 2 weeks plus I wasted, I could have gone to the doctor, get an updated Rx and placed my order and I would be wearing them by them. Instead of notifying me earlier, they kept lying to me everytime I called them. And on Friday I went to a local doctor instead and got my lenses ordered from them, turns out they were even cheaper then lens.com

LENS.COM IS A DISHONEST COMPANY AND WILL MAKE OTHER CHARGES ON YOUR CREDIT CARD WITHOUT YOUR KNOWLEDGE!!!

I will never order from lens.com again.. 3 weeks later no contacts after they said that the manufacturer had sent them but that the USPS said my address was undeliverable. Was told last week that they will go ahead and remake the 2 pairs and send FedEx.. no contacts.. am going to file a dispute with the credit card company to get my monies back.

PS Lens.com also charged an additional $7.84 on my credit card without my knowledge and claim that it is for handling charges.

Very dishonest company and would never do business with them again!

We just received a prescription as well. They messed up one of the two boxes and gave us a negative adjustment instead of a positive. Totally refused to budge even though they admitted to making this mistake and doing it in the past as well. Very rude.

This place is a train wreck -- never in my wildest dreams would I do business with them again. It's been like pulling teeth to get any satisfaction or answers about my order (ordered July 1, 2008)...still NOTHING five weeks later. Said they were shipped (had agreed to send them second day air). They didn't pay attention to the instructions and said they were shipped them regular mail. I'll believe it when I have the contacts in my hands! NEVER AGAIN, and I mean NEVER!

The service or lack thereof provided by Lens.com is horrible. I first placed my order on July 1st. After a week, I went to check on the status of my order and it was listed as cancelled. When I called in, I was told that my doctor's office said I was not a patient of theirs and led me to believe that my doctor's office did this on purpose to make me purchase the lenses through them. I was very upset and called my doctor, and they called Lens.com to resolve the issue. The CSR was extreamly rude to them and then told them it was because one of the numbers entered on the order did not match the perscription. This was resolved and a new order was placed on July 8th. I was told it would take 5 business days to process. Here we are on July 21, and my order is still in processing, with no gaurantee's on when it will ship. I understand that it may take a little time, but going through my doctor's office or another distributor really only takes at most a week. I am giving them a few more days, but will probably go elsewhere. It's obvious after reading the other complaints that their service is poor, and they don't seem to care. When making the complaint I had to call several times to get a supervisor, and even sent an email to their Customer Service Department. After finally getting a hold of someone, they were less than helpful and not apologetic in the least. Simply, they do not care. Maybe they will if they start to loose business.

I am having the the most difficult time in obtaining my contact lenses. I paid a Fed-ex charge twice. First it took a week to receive them, the wrong prescription. I had to pay a Fed-ex price again and am now waiting over another week and they so far are unable to give me a tracking number or information as to the status of my order. And they refuse to give me a refund. They are both incompetant and have poor service.

They need to make it a little more clear that they in fact DO NOT have to verify the perscription before mailing it out.

I ordered lenses from lens.com late february 2008. They confirmed order and took money from my account. It is now april 4 2008 still no lenses. I have e-mailed lens.com on at least 7 occasions they
initially answered telling me the lenses were posted 11th march then susequent replies inform me of postage times or to contact customs, now they don't bother to reply.
Since ordering from lens.com I have ordered various non related items from overseas suppliers(Hong Kong) and received confirmation of order, confirmation of payment, confirmation of shipping and received goods by post within 1week.
