Worst customer service ever
Worst customer service ever. I will never buy from them again. I ordered glasses and when they came, one of the ear pieces was loose where it connected, causing them to sit unevenly. It wasn't something tightening a screw could fix. I let them know and they said send them back and as soon as they are in the mail, we'll start working on your new ones so you don't have to wait too long for the new ones. Only, after I let them know I shipped them, they did not start working on the new ones and about a week later I got a message saying they had received my glasses and determined there was nothing wrong with them so they wouldn't be replacing them. They said they could send them back or give me a refund. I didn't want defective glasses so I chose a refund. So they were willing to refund the money but not keep the money and give me new glasses. Makes no sense. So instead of just having good customer service and getting me working glasses, they lost a potential repeat customer who will now tell everyone to never use them. Some companies just don't get customer service and this is one of them. It's a shame because I really did want the glasses if they were done right.
Response from Payne Glasses LLCAug 20, 2026
Charlie, we're sorry this experience became so frustrating. You were initially told that a replacement pair would be started once your glasses were returned, and we understand why you expected that to happen. When our team inspected the glasses, however, we determined that the movement you experienced was characteristic of that frame's hinge design rather than an issue a remake of the same frame would correct. Rather than send you another pair with the same concern, we offered a full refund so you could choose a different frame that may be a better fit for you. We recognize that this wasn't explained clearly enough from the beginning, and we're sorry for the frustration that caused.
