I just ordered a new hearing aid The original price quoted was £2395 I did a comparison on the Net and saw the same aid as low as £1500. The company said they dont price match internet prices BUT when i said i was going to buy off the net Their price came down to £1800 which includes a keyfob remote control that normally sells for around £100,
It pays to haggle
