Ask questions, veryify, and take down names, because most likely you'll be needing that information in the future when you try to get them to live up to what they promised. I get so tired of customer service runarounds too! I treat people fairly and honestly, and I expect the same. I am too often disappointed.

I tend to be wary of those "get you in the door" prices. Then again, my eyes are bad. I go to a regular opthomalogist (sp?) and pay the full price.

It's too early in the morning for me to think about an occasion it might have happened to me :( But you could probably complain to the BBB or some other government/consumer advocacy group, which is what I would do.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13831242266526923808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941371995600376751.post-80649244556732838552017-04-03T22:58:03.920-05:002017-04-03T22:58:03.920-05:00There is always that "hidden" thing they...There is always that "hidden" thing they add on in very fine print or not at all that is only presented after you are already deep into or when you are ready to just get it done. Happened with the recent vehicle we bought back in October The deal on the TV was nowhere the deal they wanted to offer in the dealership, but hubby who does this for a living (negotiating contracts) kept working away with them until he got pretty much what they had advertised on TV.<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941371995600376751.post-58240318475704571492017-04-03T22:18:55.718-05:002017-04-03T22:18:55.718-05:00I also believe it's wrong to advertise one thi...I also believe it's wrong to advertise one thing and then give people another.

I pay dearly and do without other things to have good insurance besides my Medicare sine I have a blood disease and don't want to have to change any of my doctors. Last time I had my eye exam I got prescription sunglasses. They charged me for the prescription and I paid it. Then he and his grown kids were going to another country to help people with surgery etc. He sent out a letter asking for a donation of any amount. I sent $25. I could see out of the sunglasses pretty well so I took the prescription back to Walmart eye vision and ask to have some glasses msde from the same prescription. I felt since I had paid $50.00 for it it was mine. They said they would have to call the doctor. He didn't even do me or them the courtesy to call back.Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04007728342316668058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941371995600376751.post-69267253606114044972017-04-03T20:07:22.412-05:002017-04-03T20:07:22.412-05:00That sucks.
