John Ryan and Dave Gleeson were inspired to establish Blackberry Hearing due to the shockingly high cost of hearing aids in Ireland.
Providing quality hearing solutions at about 40 per cent of the price of other retailers, Blackberry Hearing has ensured that hundreds of people, who may otherwise have been unable to afford hearing aids, have had their quality of life improved.
The focus for the company has been on providing quality, affordability, price transparency, and simplicity, but ultimately ensuring the customer gets the best possible solution for their individual needs. No stone is left unturned to ensure total customer satisfaction. Employing only BSc qualified audiologists ensures that the customer receives the best possible consultation, and thereafter the best possible solution.
Price transparency has been a cornerstone of the Blackberry Hearing philosophy. Blackberry Hearing ensures that anyone attending one of their free hearing consultations is aware beforehand of the cost of hearing aids for them, should they want to proceed. This is backed up by a 45-day cooling off period, where a customer has the assurance they can return the hearing aids for a full refund should they not be fully satisfied.
Blackberry Hearing has expanded rapidly and now holds over 60 fortnightly clinics. The feedback from both clinic partners and customers has been overwhelmingly positive.
Rita Foley, audiologist with Blackberry Hearing, adds: “It is my aim to provide the best possible service I can in terms of both the clinical assessment and vitally the care the customer receives. One reason I am delighted to work for Blackberry Hearing is because they tick all the key boxes. With its affordable prices and customer care philosophy, I can offer a very reliable and good customer care service, ensuring that each customer remains very happy with both their hearing aids and their new hearing experience.”
