      I visited the ********* location on Thursday July 14th and after waiting for 15 minutes a man with an attitude whose name was ANDREW walks up and says "yes" no welcome in or how are you doing. I ignore it, I continue to tell him that I am here to order contact lenses (I have been doing business with lens crafters for over 6 years have ordered contacts & prescription frames MULTIPLE times) and I asked about a special offer they have if I ordered a year supply. He pulls up my account and tells me that my prescription is expiring next month and he can't order the one year (which had the promotion) and that I NEED to do an exam if I want my 6 month or 1 year contacts. I tell him that I have been a loyal lens crafters for over 6 years have orders multiple contacts and FRAMES and I have even ordered contacts in the same month my prescription is expiring. He then looks me DEAD in the face and says "Its the law I can't sell you any unless you do a exam" (There is not any law & he is pressuring me into spending more money on exams which I don't have right now) after I ask what law he then says "give me a minute" and clicks on his computer for 5 minutes wasting time then goes "My system isn't letting me order anything for you" I tell him that that I will do my exam with my insurance and get prescription frames as well I just don't have additional money right now and I am wearing my last pair of contacts and I literally will be BLIND if I don't get my other pairs! With no empathy or remorse he continues to stare at me and I ask him "are you going to refuse business to me" and he gives me a blank stare and says "yes" I was appalled and disgusted for his lack of remorse for a customer whose been with them for so long then after asking for a manger he says "I am the manager" which I doubt but I grabbed my things left and called another lens crafters a few miles away..... Guess What? Not only was that NOT A POLICY they ORDERED ME A 1 YEAR SUPPLY APPLIED THE DISCOUNT!!!

      Hello *****, 

      We have received your BBB, and are truly sorry for your experience! We have forwarded this to our Regional Manager so appropriate action can be taken. You are correct, there is no law or policy against ordering a customer contacts who has a valid prescription. We are very happy to hear that another store location was able to order your year supply of contacts, as well as provide a discount. Although we cannot discuss employee relations with our customers, we are looking into this issue. We appreciate you bringing it to our attention, and hope you have a great weekend! 

      Sincerely,
      Customer Resolution Team

      I drove all the way to the store to make the return for a pair of sunglasses. When I arrived I was told that the lady couldn’t make the return because she didn’t have access to their computer system because she had just transfers from a different store. I then went on your chat to talk to someone about my issue. ***** B on chat went on to lie to me and say the reason I couldn’t make the return was because I didn’t print off a return label. I told him that he was lying and that I’ve returned without that before and that on their website it says to make a return you just need proof of purchase and original packaging. ***** continues to lie to me to try to justify that I wasn’t able to return in stores. I just want to be returned my money for the glasses. I can’t get all my time and gas money I spent back. I have screen shots of the chat transcript and I visited the tanger store at 530pm on 7/12.

      Hello ********,

      We have received your BBB, and are very sorry that you could not return your order in-store on your visit. In order for an online return to be processed in-store, you would need to chat or call with our online team to initiate the return process, and be provided a return shipping label through your email address. Once you have the label, you can then print and attach this to your original package and either drop this off at at local Sunglass Hut, or a UPS Store or drop-off point. Please note that under our Returns page on the website it states, "Purchases made on our website can be returned to a Sunglass Hut store (excluding outlets, concessions, and airports).". The Grand Rapids/Tanger Sunglass Hut would be considered an outlet mall Sunglass Hut store. They will not accept an online return without the shipping label printed and attached to the order. If you have not already, please contact our Sunglass Hut team online, and start the return process. Once we receive your package back from either the store or UPS, we will provide you with a 100% refund. 

       

      Best Regards,
      Customer Resolution Team

      Hello ********, 

      Here is our Returns information, pulled directly from the website, posted below. As you can see we provide three options for online returns, all which require you to go online first and print a return label, which is provided free from our website or online team if needed. Then you have the option to either – book a pick-up at your place, use a UPS store/drop off or access point, or return this to a Sunglass Hut store. Additionally, under the ‘Return to a Sunglass Hut store” option, it states that it excludes outlets, and that exceptions on returns may apply. We do apologize for any confusion, but you will have to go on our website, or chat with a online team member, to retrieve a return shipping label. Then once you have this attached to your order’s packaging, you can then select one of the three options for a return.

      ****** ******** *******



      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ** ********* and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. 

       

      The return label I received shows an error when I try to open it though. So i guess I just have to keep the sunglasses.
