If their glasses are any indication I would suspect that there are all sorts of options on upgrading for a series of small fees. I would have thought that if you went in to get something from you they would be giving you all sorts of options, likely many more than you want!. That's what happens whenever I've been in there (& most other places) for glasses.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Debt Free Wannabe and Old Style Money Saving boards.

It's not in anyone's interests to fob you off with something which doesn't work for you. You just keep going back until you're happy.
But bear in mind what suits one person may be completely wrong for you.
DH has come home today with new NHS hearing aids. He asked about Bluetooth, but apparently his loss won't fit well with the Bluetooth options. They've made a note to review this next year.Signature removed for peace of mind0 -
