I have used this company for some years and have had excellent service each and every time. It’s possible to speak to a human being (a rarity these days) they are a joy to deal with.

First class service

First class service. Second time I've used this company and certainly will continue to do so.
I orded by phone and spoke to a lovely lady, who sorted it all for me. Next day they arrived, how's that for service!! The glasses I choose fit perfect, but most of all, the prescription was spot on. I've used another company who states they do the same, but I can't see a thing out of them.
So thank you to a company that does what it says it will and the cost is amazingly low for such quality products.

Reglazing four good pairs of old frames.

Reglazing a good pair of old frames is economically prudent. I came across Specs-by-Post in Rotherham who were excellent in every respect. I initially sent them one frame and it was posted] back to me within 48 hours . The price was very fair and the workmanship was faultless. So my wife and I had three more pairs reglazed.
Linsey and her husband were a pleasure to do business with. The whole experience was first class even going so far as to check and tighten the rest of the screws and cleaning the frames
Thank you very much Linsey..

Forget the Rest Use the Best

Probably the best UK based online spectacles website out there. I bought a pair of bi-focals from them a year ago and I've just bought a second pair of the same glasses I was so happy with them. A screw had come loose on the hinge on my original pair and after my own bodge attempts at fixing them I lost the screw. Hands up all my fault. Spec-by-Post fixed them for just the postage charge. Excellent service which well deserves 5 stars. Linsey was my main point of contact via email and she is a credit to the company she represents. Prompt and courteous replies to my emails.
Keep up the good work Linsey and the team at Specs-by-Post. I shall continue to use your company for my glasses and I recommend your firm to my friends and work colleagues.
Very happy customer.

I've used them for 4 years now and they're wonderful

The reviews on here are amongst the most glowing I have read for any company. I'm going to add one more, it deserves it. This company is a find, cheap, fast and efficient and Linsey is an absolute delight.
If Linsey isn't the boss, she should be.

Look no further, this is the company to use.

Second to none

I have used Specs By Post many times in the past and have just changed my prescription so have just used them again and will continue to do so. As usual customer service and turn around time is second to none. I always send frames to them to reglaze therefore costs me a fraction of the price of high street opticians. Can’t recommend enough.

Fabulous service and good quality y

Not knowing where to start looking for some reading glasses after having had surgery for two Cateracts and Specsavers are, in my opinion, expensive , £50 or £70 for aviator style glasses, its the only style I like but they have their profits to think about and in Northallerton, I counted 12 staff that I could see, I came upon this company just by browsing and they had good reviews.

After inputting my prescription, it then asked me for all kinds of info that they dont need, as far as I can see and I dont want follow up emails, we get enough of them, Linsey actually contacted me and offered to cut out all that xxxxxx for me, it was done and dusted in no time at all and they arrived via the cheapest postal service in very good time ( I'm a Capricorn and a Yorkshire guy, double tight)!

Nice looking glasses, fit good and I can read good again, fantastic and friendly service from Linsey and the gang, I can safely reccomend this company and for the amount of times I will need them, consider them very good value.

Have had numerous glasses reglazed & tinted with Specs By Post. Have to say they are brilliant. Their customer service is second to none & their prices more than reasonable. I don't use any other than Specs By Post. I have no hesitation in recommending this company.

Been using Specs-By-Post for several years. In terms of value for money and turn around times they win every time over high street opticians, especially when you get into lenses like varifocals, bifocals and Reactolite. I shall never buy specs from local opticians again!

Why bother going anywhere else ??

I've now been using Specs-By-post for about four years now and boy, what a company. I certainly will not go anywhere else!

I will now use statements that I believe describe this fabulous company and staff.
professional-courteous- friendly-extremely obliging and helpful-high quality-very reasonable cost-amazingly quick service-great after sales (which you probably won't need)-great choices of glasses. You'd be crazy not to give this firm a go! then....you'll end up being a regular like me ;o}
Thank you Lindsey and Carl for another great experience and several new pairs of glasses...Whoopeeeee
