Had an appointment booked for Friday.
On Thursday they call me. Take some details. All fine.
Them: "Oh, go to hospital"
Me: "OK. But I can't really today as I'm in Wales (I live in Buckinghamshire). Can't I just come and see you tomorrow so I can get a referral letter (like I did last time!)?"
Them: "You could go to hospital in Wales"
Me: "Erm...you want me to rush in to Cardiff and maybe have on-the-spot eye surgery in Wales? And be stuck there for a week before I can drive again? With my car stuck in an NCP car park? And nowhere for me to stay?"
Them: "We're not going to see you tomorrow, go to eye casualty"
Went to eye casualty today (where I had my other eye fixed).
Hospital: "You need a referral letter. We don't do walk-ins"
Me: "I thought you'd say that (having been through the process before for my other eye). Specsavers refused to see me and now I've missed the appointment I had with them."
Hospital: "Specsavers really should have known that."
Me: "Yep. They really should have..."
It's a completely mega-urgent case, and now because they've messed me around and not listened to a word I've said, I'm having to wait another 3 days. Thank you Specsavers, but I think I shall go elsewhere from now on :)
