No update on my order, no communication at all on any updates since I paid. All emails I send to them, all bounce back. It beginning to feel like a dead company and a scam.

Great quality!

I ordered a new pair of prescription sunglasses after my old ones broke right before a big trip. I spoke to Keith, and he promised he would do his absolute best to get them to me in time. True to his word, they arrived in just 8 days with the prescription lenses perfectly done. I am really pleased with the fantastic quality and so relieved they arrived before my holiday. Great customer service - I will definitely use them again!

Replacement service. Friendly and efficient.

I had a somewhat unusual request. My existing frame from a high street retailer was already 3 years old when an arm broke. The said retailer no longer sourced the same frame. FGD had frame in stock, rang them up, paid for the frame, and posted my complete glasses.

They arrived Monday and were shipped back the same afternoon. Arrived completed and boxed with the original frame.

Friendly and efficient

Varifocal glasses sent for reglazing…

Varifocal glasses sent for reglazing and wasn't sure of ppd. Keith and Dave both really helpful and measurement taken from old lenses. Quick delivery, new lenses exactly as required. Very reasonable cost. The only issue I would change is notification of package received. Otherwise highly recommend.

I never thought I could afford Ray Bans

I ordered Ray Bans something I thought was way out of my price range. Anyway I ordered them with Varifocal lenses and anti glare etc for £144. They arrived. Well they are gorgeous, in a blue frame, fit lovely, look lovely and nice and clear. Definitely recommend RB8901

Great Communications

The frames I choose were discontinued. Very quick to tell me this and offer alternatives or a refund. Refund was made immediately on request. Clear communications and actions. I would trust this company to do a good job and will come back to them in the future.
