CVS You’ll grow a full beard waiting in line here

This CVS is the slowest pharmacy on the entire east coast. I have NEVER seen them fully staffed. Half the time they you your stuff is ready, then when you show up, they can't find it and tell you to come back later. They have a drive thru that's been either out of order or simply abandoned since before the pandemic. Of course they wouldn't have the staff to run it anyway.

How do they even stay in business?!?!

CVS Rude employee

While I was shopping your employee, who was stocking next to me, was singing so loud that she could be heard on the Riverfront. Not very professional I must say.

She checked me out and when, I asked to purchase a book of stamps, she replied, "We don't have any". I was not even greeted with a hello but her rude attitude.

This is why I now go to my local Walgreen's for all my needs. Who hires these rude people to handle your paying customers? How unprofessional and the reason I no longer go to CVS unless I absolutely have to.

Recommendation: Hire people with manners and customer service experience.

CVS The Worst Pharmacy and drugstore!

They have the MOST incompetent, obnoxious workers...from Annette, David and Kira...and Both the Pharmacists... The male one refused to give his name on the phone! ALL of the pharmacy workers are SO SLOW AND RUDE...They don't respect the customers at all! Go to Walgreens just a few blocks down in Dunedin where the staff is so kind , helpful and quick!

CVS Changes ruined service

I had been using the same CVS in Target because the staff there was amazing. However, for whatever reason there were changes made that totally ruined the experience. All the staff that had been there had all the sudden been replaced, all of them. The new staff obviously was not even from the area, the prescriptions were not getting filled, they changed the rules on what and how they could fill things and so I went for days without necessary medications and I was told that I would need to call and remind them instead of the normal being texted when they were filled because I was on automatic refill. So not only were there new staff unfamiliar with the area, they also seemed unfamiliar with how to fill prescriptions and customer service was not pleasant, even though it was the changes CVS made that created this very poor customer service. Will never use CVS again. And maybe, just maybe - they'll stop destroying our natural resources from all the paper they waste on 2 - 3 ft long receipts that everyone just throws away.

Recommendation: I transferred everything to my local Walgreens, but my recommendation would be any pharmacy other than CVS.

CVS What has happened to CVS?

I scheduled Covid and flu shot with CVS online only to be texted the night before my appointment that the vaccines were not available yet and to reschedule. I rescheduled for another day only to get the same text again that they were not available and to reschedule. I rescheduled for a third time and, you guessed it, I got the same text again the night before my appointment. I figured I'd wait a few weeks before rescheduling again. CVS calls me to tell me that the vaccines are, indeed, in and a glitch was sending out these texts. I go in, get my shots. Now I get constant texts telling me how sorry CVS is for the delay and not to forget to reschedule. I inform CVS that I already got the shots but the texts still keep coming to reschedule. It's time for CVS to get its act together.

Recommendation: Schedule with someone else who is more reliable.

Update by stvj07

Today, 10/4/2023, our doctor called in a few prescriptions for my sick wife to the CVS on Charlotte Street in Pottstown, PA. Later, around dinner time, I called CVS to inquire about the status of the prescriptions so I could avoid driving all the way to the pharmacy if they were not going to be ready. I spoke with the pharmacist who informed me that they were finishing up the prescriptions as we spoke and to wait a few more minutes before driving over to pick them up. He also reminded me not to wait too long because the pharmacy was closing at 7:00pm. I waited for a while and arrived at the pharmacy at approximately 6:45. The man at the counter does not even make eye contact with me, does not greet me with a "how may I help you", and mumbles in a monotone robotic voice, "Name and date of birth". I provide him with the information. He again mumbles in his monotone voice that the prescriptions are not filled yet and the earliest I would be able to pick them up would be the next day. I informed him that I had already spoken to the pharmacist on the phone almost an hour ago and he had told me they were finishing up with them then and they'd be ready when I arrived. "We are sorry. Anything else you need?" was his monotone, robotic response. I was livid at his "too bad, take it or leave it" attitude.

CVS Robot answering service about 10 years

The robot answering machiine , when it was male it was awful but at least every question did not prompt you to get an app .

The new female voice is identical as the old save that it aggressively wants you to download their bloody app . It never tells me i have presciptions ready , never ever . So when I call i am made to wait through the endless nonsense that does not pertain to me and wait until i may push the button to speak with a pharmacist .

Not only all of this , i do not receive a phone call or a message when my scripts have been filled ,

And when i call , the damned robot says nothing as to whether or not my scripts are ready . It is endlessly frustrating .

I am on 24 medications and this "Service" needs to be junked , it is worse than useless .

Recommendation: Complain , it may be screaming into the void but maybe it will help . the answering service is 100% broken.

I called, spoke to the pharmacist and she said they were from a Sept. script some doctor we never heard of sent in. I asked why they filled a script that was so old without contacting me and...

There are NOT enough people working the pharmacy. I know they are underpaid therefore they are understaffed. That store cannot keep a pharmacist manager. When I call them, I am on hold for more that 20 minutes and sometimes more. I'm sick and tired of waiting on the phone or seeing tired and overworked people working back there. Half the time the pharmacy...

CVS Gift card Nike

I purchased a gift card and gave it to my boss for christmas. The card while activated at cvs did not work. I had gone back to the store and there it began not our fault call nike, I call nike they say cvs will refund you, cvs bounced me back and forth with no resolution. I currently reached out to the bbb bureau and they are reaching out to bith the merchant and business owner. I will never go back to cvs and buy anything I will only use the pharmacy. Knowing that they check to make sure the card was never used. This was noted that's why I was warranted return of my $150 that I lost but for them to push back to the other store is an unfair way to do business. You will see how long I was kept on hold and how how many times I called and there was no resolved. You’ll see the receipt, the card everything you need.

Claimed loss: $150

Desired outcome: Refund

CVS rx payment in dispute

My wife's Humira prescription was cancelled for non-payment because we should owe 0 and are being charge $3000! We have had an ongoing dispute between United HealthCare, Humira, Humira co-pay, and Prudent Rx. No one wants to be responsible for fixing this problem. Have called on this almost 30 times since November and only get a pass the buck to someone else or some other entity. Priority Mailed documentation CVS pharmacy since the (incorrect)invoices come from them. Confirmed receipt with USPS tracking. Now my wife finds out that her mediction won't be sent until the (incorrect) bill is paid. How can a company ethically and legally do this?

CVS Pharmacy

The pharmacy in the albertsons unholy in Portland Oregon used to be such a great place to go, but now that they’ve taken over the Rite Aid customers, I have been treated poorly by the pharmacist and their voicemail has been full for two weeks. There’s no way for doctors to get a hold of the pharmacists there’s no way for customers like myself to leave messages and often times I have to call 12 to 13 times to get someone to answer the phone it looks like your resolution rate is pretty poor so I don’t expect anything out of this but at least I’ve said something about the poor treatment that I’ve had. I’ve been trying for days to get a prescription filled for an infection I have and now I’ll have to. Monday because the voicemail is full and they never contacted my doctor even though they needed to

Desired outcome: I’m sure the person that’s getting this email is underpaid and isn’t treated well either and so nothing will change.

CVS On hold for 2.25 hours before giving up

Today is Monday, Jan. 22 at 4:57 pm and I have the proof of this call time on my phone. This isn't ok. I don't care how short staffed you are or what is going on you can get through phone calls faster than this. It makes you feel like you all just aren't doing your job. I needed to give you my daughters secondary insurance coverage and you never answered the phone. At this point I feel CVS owes me money. This is just unacceptable! To add insult to injury the music for the calls on hold is beyond terrible.

Claimed loss: Never was able to give the secondary insurance information.

Desired outcome: That my daughters secondary insurance could be filed so you all will stop sending me letters.
