Jacqui was absolutely tops. Caring professional made you feel important so will certainly use and recommend Bayfields. Hope I get the same care and professionalism when I need an eye check.

Very good face-to-face interaction
Very good face-to-face interaction. Post-appointment communication not so great regarding broken Octomap scanner, but £49 fee paid was refunded as a 'goodwill gesture', whatever that means. £50 Amazon voucher for recommendation finally received after 16 weeks and several phone calls. Overall, very happy with the examination and suspect the root of the problems lie with head office rather than the local branch in South Woodham Ferrers. I have been a customer for quite a few years, and would continue to use them.

We regret that your post-appointment communication was not satisfactory. We have checked the £50 Amazon voucher you were due for referring a friend, and this was sent to you via email on 20th November.

Staff and Prices
The staff are very informative and helpful.
However, I think the prices of glasses are very expensive. For example, the materials are plastic. I understand the technology that goes into creating the lenses, but after development, prices should come down due to volume sales and automation.

I was seen at appointment time and was pleased with whole experience. The review following the actual hearing test was thorough and quite illuminating as to the actual sounds I am missing out on!

The eye examination was carried out very professionally and efficiently. However, I was charged £40 which had not occurred on previous visits. Do I owe Bayfields for my earlier examinations?
