CVS Prescriptions

Good evening,

This is my 2nd time going to CVS in Cedar Hill Texas to have my prescription filled and the messed up the doctors instructions for the same prescription. It happened three months ago on the same prescription and each time the individual that was assisting me was rude and nasty!

They want to talk to you like your an idiot and the part that really annoys me is that the prescription I get every three months and have for at least three years is for Albuterol Sulfate HFA Inhalation Aerosol, I get 2 inhalers per month for 3 months. Last month the prescription was messed up and it took me three weeks to get it fixed. When this happens it costs me more money because they charge me twice for the same prescription. The missing inhalers cost me twice it would cost me if I receive them all at the same time.

The part that is the worse is they are rude and disrespectful they do not care that CVS is cheating people! I would like someone to contact me ASAP to discuss this terrible customer service. My name is Cynthia Brown [protected] and would love to speak with someone at headquarters.'

Thank you,

Cynthia Brown

[protected]

Desired outcome: Refund of $20 for the extra cost to me and for being disrespected your reps and Pharmacist need customer service training really bad.

CVS Closure without notice and incorrect prescription information

I went to the CVS Pharmacy within Target at 1 Mifflin Street in Philadelphia, PA on Friday, 7/28/23 around 3pm as my prescriptions were due to be ready for pickup at 2pm. I was picking up two epinephrine pens and seizure medication for my four year old daughter. Upon arriving at the pharmacy I learned that it was closed "because the pharmacist never showed up and the backup pharmacist apparently got into an accident."

I called customer service and spoke to two different representatives. The first individual I spoke with was incredibly rude and continuously interrupted me or cut me off mid-sentence. He offered no solution and transferred me to his superior. The woman I then spoke with did much of the same thing: she did not offer any solution and continuously spoke over me rather than listening to my concerns.

It is unethical to close a pharmacy without notice and without a backup place to open during scheduled hours when people are in need of life-sustaining and life-saving medications. If a physician is unable to make it to the hospital, they certainly do not close the hospital - they have a backup plan in place and emergency coverage in place. It is absolutely unacceptable and unethical to prevent people from getting medications that is pertinent to their health and well-being when they need it and are scheduled to have it.

Further, I was told that the medications would be available for pickup when the pharmacy reopened, although a date or time for reopening was unknown. I returned to the pharmacy on Saturday, 7/29/23. The pharmacy was open, but the seizure medication was not available - the supervisor who was the second person I spoke with on Friday sent the prescription to a different pharmacy without my knowledge or permission. The pharmacy that was supposed to have it only had enough for a three day supply so now I am still waiting for the full prescription to be filled three days later. Lastly, when I asked the pharmacist about the unexpected closure on Friday, he immediately lost his cool by raising his voice and telling me that he's "had a few rough days and they continue to be rough so I will probably close the pharmacy again and no one will be able to get their medication."

Desired outcome: Leadership team to create a comprehensive plan for coverage to keep the it open during all scheduled hours.

CVS Refund not received after online order canceled.

I placed an order on March 5, 2023, but the order was cancelled due to a system error. I immediately contacted CVS for a resolution and was transferred to 3 different departments with no resolution. I was told that a representative would research the incident and get back to me. I received a call back almost a week later and was advised that an incident would be opened and a refund request. After several weeks of not receiving the refund, I called again only to be bounced from department to department. Then I decided to submit an email inquiry on April 29, 2023. I received a response to the inquiry confirming that the issue was resolved and a refund was issued. The email advised that it would take several days for the refund to be returned to the gift card. As of July 26, 2023 I still have not received the refund. I have called numerous times of the last several months but the employees have not been able to assist me. Today, I spoke with 3 different employees in customer care, the gift card customer service and the refund department but none of them were knowledgeable enough to provide a resolution. The last representative in the cvs.com department told me that "there was nothing she could do because it had been too long since I placed my order. This is both disappointing and frustrating. My customer service experience with CVS has been extremely poor.

Desired outcome: Refund of $31 to gift card and a formal apology

CVS Store cleanliness

Subject: Complaint about Unsanitary Conditions at CVS - 3055 Broad River Road, Columbia, SC 29210

Dear CVS Customer Service,

I am writing to express my extreme disappointment and concern regarding the unsanitary conditions I encountered during my recent visit to your store located at 3055 Broad River Road, Columbia, SC 29210.

Upon entering the store on 7/26/2023, I was appalled by the overall cleanliness and hygiene standards. The store appeared unkempt and neglected, with evident signs of dirt and debris scattered throughout the aisles. The floors appeared to have not been cleaned in a considerable amount of time, and the presence of trash in various areas was quite alarming.

As a loyal customer, I believe it is essential for CVS to uphold high standards of cleanliness and hygiene to ensure a pleasant shopping experience for all patrons. The conditions I encountered were not only unsightly but also potentially hazardous to the health and well-being of customers and employees alike.

I request that immediate action be taken to rectify these issues and improve the overall cleanliness and maintenance of the store. Regular inspections and thorough cleaning protocols must be implemented to prevent such situations from recurring in the future.

I hope that CVS will take this matter seriously and address it promptly to restore customer confidence in your establishment. Your commitment to maintaining a clean and safe shopping environment will undoubtedly enhance the overall shopping experience for all customers.

I trust that CVS will take the necessary steps to rectify this situation and prevent similar incidents in the future.

Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to your prompt response.

Sincerely,

Gregory Whittaker

CVS Pharmacy

It is unacceptable for anyone to be put on hold for over thirty minutes when trying to check on a prescription. On hold for 43 minutes and just finally hung up. If the pharmacy in Benton, MO can’t handle it’s job, maybe you should hire more people or just close said pharmacy! This happened on July 26, 2023 at your Belton, MO location with the phone number of [protected]. This is an ongoing problem with this pharmacy and should really be looked into. I don’t know why the government with TriCare would use such a corporation that cares nothing for its customers!

Desired outcome: Answering calls in a timely manner!

The pharmacy in Bozeman repeatedly sent texts that prescriptions had been filled, then when I arrived it had not done so. I could wait, though I was traveling but others arrived expecting that the prescription had been filled and had to leave because they were from different towns. The staff was rude and intolerant, especially to older people. The manager...

CVS Pharmacy technician

Patient call provider office on tears due to the experience she had at CVS when she went to obtain the prescription for her transgender care child who is protected by the Fl. Law, our patient is 16 years old who is under mental health care and medical care Dr who specialized on Gender Identity.

I called the Pharmacy myself to find out if something was wrong with the prescription, this pharmacy Tech. explained to me that he has the right to deny this medication, cause many studies support his beliefs, he used his own judgment to deny the testosterone who is been prescribed by our Dr since 02/2022. This technician overpowers the rights of my patient who is a minor and vulnerable, he ignored the civil rights and the law who protect kids who are already transitioning. This Technician is a threat to vulnerable community and is uneducated.

We encouraged CVS to please take care of this issues for providers we still having trust in CVS, and we can continue treating our patients without personal beliefs.

Desired outcome: Parent will proceed to file complaint. and Dr Office will call his manager. Incident took placed today 07/21/2023 at 9:am

This is a serious problem in the Barnesville Store #5683. This is not a one time issue, but a recurring monthly nightmare. It's like the pharmacy has no one supervising the section. I was told to pick my prescription up anytime after 12:00pm on July 20, 2023. But since this is an issue I decided to call to see if the prescription was actually ready for pick...

The employees never open the second register anymore, when before they always would when more than 3 people were in line. Today it was 5 deep and still no one opened it. It seems to me there are fewer employees too. I had...

CVS Inability to get in touch with CVS on Bragg bvd in Fayetteville OH

I moved to Ohio at the beginning of June 2023. I have tried to get in touch with the CVS on Bragg Blvd in Fayetteville, NC but cannot get them to answer phone. The CVS on State Rd in Parma OH has also had the same problem. This has grossly affected my getting one of my prescriptons.l CVS in Fayetteville keeps refilling my prescription which precludes the CVS in OH from filling it. I even had my former provider with Aetna change the CVS for my prescriptions. All are ok except one, the one for acid reflux. The CVS on Bragg Blv in Fayetteville is shorthanded but it is ridiculous that they won't even answer calls from the CVS onState Rd in OH. I will be getting a new AETNA provider/principal physician up here in OH and if this is nt resolved, I will change all prescriptions to Walgreens.

Desired outcome: I want to be able to get my prescription filled at State Rd in OHIO. I also want to be assured that CVS is doing something about the poor serice at the Bragg Blvd store in Fayetteville

CVS Pharmacy customer service

Registering a complaint concerning Pharmacy Customer Service. In Little River & North Myrtle Beach, SC pharmacy a person never answers the phones! When going through the drive-through, no one comes to the window! I'm handicapped and struggle to walk. I've had to get out of my car, go to the prescription counter and retrieve my prescriptions! Poorest service ever! For this reason, I'll be forced to take my business elsewhere.

When I asked for a manager, the workers seem to have no one managing them?

CVS Pharmacy, 1370 Highway 17, Little River, SC 29566 - No one answers the phone, no one comes to the drive through window.

CVS Pharmacy, 1010 Highway 17 N, North Myrtle Beach, SC 29582 - no one ever answers the phone.

Desired outcome: For the sake of your business and for handicapped and senior customers - improvements. I'm not a complainer, but this whole experience was absurd!
