May 30,2023. The head pharmacist lied about the legality of filling an out of state doctors script for my sleep meds that are considered a controlled substance. Mind you, cvs had filled my scripts for a year but he refused to fill them one day early since I was leaving for Europe the Next day. He was willing to fill them until he learned the scripts were...

My husband had an appointment with the minute clinic that went fine. However a medication that he got prescribed required a prior authorization in order to have it filled. I attempted to speak with someone at the minute clinic to discuss this, however I got a front of store clerk instead. He did not understand what I was trying to explain and when I did try...

I do not understand why cvs in Belmont NC never has needed medication in stock-it is always-"it is on back order"- it can be ozempic - monjeuro - or narcolepsy medicine. This is a 24 hour store-my physicians are getting tired of hearing this. No store, whether it be a retail and especially a store CVS we depend on never have meds in stock - WHY — I never...

I have been a client at the CVS at legacy and Lebanon in Frisco, Texas for 23 years. Recently, they changed the automated phone system and you can not speak to a person. Furthermore, when calling about a prescription that was called in, there is no option for it. The staff have always been professional and polite, as I have indicated many times for the in...

CVS Refill

I called yesterday to the Luray, VA Walmart utilizing your automated Telephony system (8/10/2023 roughly around 5PM). I was told that my order would be ready for pickup. at 8PM. I rode a bike to the CVS only to be told they nothing about the refill.

I came back home and called your telephony system again; it stated my RX would be ready today (8/11/2023) at 11:00AM. I was driven to the store to again not receive the RX.

A nice lady at another counter looked into the issue.

The issue was my insurance will not refill the RX until 8/15/2023.

I am a retired IT Director. I wrote several telephony systems and payment through phone,

This whole incident could be resolved by CVS coding their telephony system to not blindly state the RX will be ready at time of and date of X and Y without taking into account the insurance date.

I wasted valuable time for CVS shortcoming with respect to a simple coding construct that I know is viable.

What should have happened is being told my RX would be available for pickup based on the viable insurance date.

Feel free to call me to articulate further how you can make your telephony system more reliable.

I should get a decent sized gift card for even suggesting updating your system in order to better serve your customers.

CVS Backorder/Delay on Ozempic

I understand my diabetes medication is having a nationwide shortage; however, my CVS pharmacy has no tentative date on when it will be available, nor has anyone made an attempt to contact the manufacturer to expedite or obtain an ETA. I called the CVS corporate office as well and they brushed me off to another phone number with the same flaccid results.

Is there any employee within the entire CVS conglomerate that is attempting to expedite this matter and inform the other chains of any updates? Your diabetic customers need to know before they must make the move to switch to a new medication, because our system needs time to adjust.

Desired outcome: I'd like an ETA for my prescription. The manufacturers should have a date when their stock will be released, and CVS should contact them for a viable ETA.

I received an automated phone call on August 5th telling me that my prescription refill was ready for pick up. When I went to the pharmacy on August 9, they said that they had no prescription for me. I told them that I received a phone call saying the prescription was ready. They said that it happens frequently that customers get called to pick up...

My granddaughter and I were shopping in the CVS at 581 W Channel Islands Blvd, Port Hueneme, CA 93041. I had a horrible feeling that diarrhea was coming, and I had to act fast. We ran to the bathroom, but it was locked. My granddaughter ran to the one and only checker, who said they are not allowed to unlock the bathroom or give us a key. This was the...

The other day, I bought two mango sorbets because it was on sale at the right time. But after we ate it, we felt sick, had diarrhea and had to lie down. Very disappointing as it is a favorite item. Please let me know if there are other victims. The seal on the lid of the mango ice cream that I bought was peeling off, so I think the hygiene quality control...

CVS Pharmacy

I expect a drugstore to have all of my prescriptions at least for one month. That would be fabulous! Every month there is at least one prescription I have to wait at least a week for. This month it was three. All three have to be taken daily! This Pharmacy does not care. They can get your money from someone else it doesn't matter whether you die or not.

Every month or so, CVS sends a coupon for 25% off your total order and every time I use it I run into problems. It won't scan at the self-scan machine (says the salesperson, "Oh those don't work there. You have to come up here..." and then I have to wait for 5 to 10 minutes as they try to scan, cancel, rescan the coupon. I hear the usual excuses, "Coupon...

CVS Prescription stock

Cvs on 291 s Coombs street napa CA

Today is Friday and I’ve been waiting since Monday for my adhd prescription to be filled. The pharmacy says it’s out of stock until probably Monday. I feel really awful. I have a migraine, I can’t stop sleeping. I don’t think this is acceptable. Is it? As a patient I have no idea what to do other than write this.

Desired outcome: I’d appreciate a response

CVS Extra care pass refund

Good afternoon-

My name is Katina Bryant and I am filing this complaint because I am being charged $5 a month for a service that I cannot use.

I went to CVS on 8/1/2023 and wanted to use my CVS credit. At that time the cashier stated that she does not see my information in the system. Then I said ok just use my coupon that I just received from the pharmacy; she stated I could not use that either. She suggested that I call to get this situation straight.

I called customer service and spoke with a representative on 8/3/2023 @3:40pm asking for a refund. At that time, I was told that my account has been closed since May 2023. So, I asked why I could not cancel and get a refund and she stated that my account is closed. I am still being charged on a closed account. I checked my bank statement today and is being charged $5 again. I gave her my card information and account number. I asked to speak with a supervisor and she stated they are all in a meeting so I should call back and go online to update my information. My question is why should I have to update my information if my account is closed and why I can't be refunded for these charges?

Please advise with a call back at [protected].

CVS Pharmacy

I am not going to say whether I spoke to a man or woman because I am not complaining to get someone fired. I just want to be spoken to politely and not a bother. I called because my PC sent a refill for my prescription in. I called because it had not been filled. It evidently is on backorder. I called to ask if they had any idea when it may be in. I was told rudely "no idea when its in we will fill it." It wasn't the content it was the attitude. I realize everyone is very busy and I didn't mean to bother anyone but it is not the first time I have felt this way. The techs dont like to wait on customers picking up prescriptions and it is very obvious at times. These are our medications so all I am asking is just be nice. I work with the public also and believeme I know they can drive you crazy but you just have to smile and do your job. Thank you for listening.

The female pharmacy technician named Phillitta, working at the Lawrenceville location in Atlanta, GA, raised her voice at me during a phone call. This occurred because there was a line at the store and they were dealing with a high volume of customers. I found it puzzling why she chose to answer the phone instead of perhaps asking if she could place me on...
