Good news - have they rolled this out to all branches now?
When this started approximately 12 months ago , they only had audiology facilities in Guardamar and Benidorm in our region.

Sorry! Do not have anymore information only that they are dealing with hearing, just give them a call I am sure they will explain what they do.

If you find out that answer, please post. I might be able to get my set working again!

I made a very expensive mistake of buying new aids from Specsavers in the UK just before moving here permanently. I was due a new set and did a bit of research and found aids were cheaper in the UK .
What I didn’t realise was that Specsavers have their own customised software, rather than the manufacturer’s software. So if meant that that no adjustments could be made over here. When one broke (as it did) it would have meant two separate flights back to the UK. THe first to check that they were actually broken and the second a couple of weeks later to collect. . Possibly an extra journey as well if the hearing level was quiet right. I had to bite the bullet and pay for new aids over here and my Specsavers ones are just sitting in the back of a drawer.

They also do hearing tests at Optica Rodriguez by the Galp petrol station in the centre of Quesada.
As my last driving medical showed a dodgy left ear I was thinking of using them before my next one is due.
