Reviews and Complaints

The pharmacist on duty at the CVS pharmacy on 3/21/2020 at the 9the St and 43 Rd Vero Beach Florida location was very rude to my wife a stage four cancer patient. She waited at the counter first in lin for twenty minutes before they opened the pharmacy and when they did she said she wanted to ask a question about her prescription..He told her that she was in the wrong line and told her to go to the consultation line because he needed to take care of customers picking up prescriptions.. The question she wanted to ask was if the doctor called in her prescription (chantix) and if it was for the second month and not the beginning month..He was totally rude and should have realized she was a cancer patient because she didn't have any Hair!
She then talked to an employee that worked there and they said that he was rude to people that worked there..If I was with her I would have not been so courteous to him.. Someone needs to address his behavior or have him go through behavioral training.

Dear Sirs, My name is Martin G. Vasak, CVS/Caremark card # [protected]. I am writing in regard to your policy on Controlled Medicine. I am 64yrs.old and suffer from chronic pain. I was a customer of Walgreens for many yrs. I recently switched because of their constant bumbling of my pain meds. I understand there are regulations in place to ensure abuse can't happen, but when the Dr. says the drug should be dispensed on a date, it should be ready on that date. If it is out of stock, an order should be put in to have it available on the 14th.It seems when "That" date arrives, then they look and see that the drug is not in stock and I have to wait a few more days, while I am in a lot of pain, pushing back the next pick up date to the 16th. My pain does not stop for those days when the pharmacist realizes the med. is not in stock. I see my Dr. on the 11th, prescription is sent in on the 11th, but isn't due until the 14th. The 14th comes around, CVS tells me "We don't have Med. in stock, it will be in on Monday the 16th. WHY!. They have had the prescription since the 11th? It should be entered in the computer system in a "Que". The computer should tell Pharmacist, "Out of stock, reorder" on the 11TH, so the med is ready for me, a chronic pain sufferer on time, on the 14th. This seems like such an easy "Fix" why isn't it done this way. Walgreens is a lot closer. I explained my issue to a lady at CVS on March 11th, she told me to call on the 14th, I did & I'm told, "Not in stock". After telling the man at CVS my situation of chronic pain and I can't wait until the 16th, he offered what they had in stock, 9 pills that I can pick up today, the 14th. I asked him, "When I pick up the balance on Monday, my day of pick up will be today, the 14th, not Monday the 16th, because next month I do not want to go with out my pain meds 2 extra days to the 16th?" He said he can't know what will happen next month. I await your reply. Sincerely, Martin G. Vasak [protected]

3/12/20...at 5 pm today as I waited in line with 5 other customers, the cashier held the line up for a customer to go to her car to get her credit card. A customer behind me said, go to the next customer...we were told the cashier could not cancel the sale and take the next customer. The customers in line were then informed that "it would take long, we were all unreasonable", when the customer returned we had to listen to her inform the customer( which appeared to be a friend) that we were all impatient, and listen to them put down the rest of the line. I was next in line, and I let her know -- after my sale was put through, that she was unprofessional. The people in line were told, too bad, she was the manager at that time and we could go somewhere else for our business. She was insulting and didn't seem to care that her customer service was in question. Don't like it, go somewhere else was her attitude! Personally, I think she should be fired, but I know nothing will be done. While I will continue to get my meds from CVS, as that is where my insurance plan covers me, I will go through the drive through. I have no desire to go into this CVS again...and my grand daughter works there, however, I was treated so badly, I'm done. AS were others in the line that waited for service. Even though this is a new CVS store, there is never enough help, and one always has to seek out a cashier, seems there is never anyone around. While we all put up with it, this for me, was the last straw! No customer service, no respect for customers, and little brats that are given the title of manager. I think you should check out the people you hire, they have bad attitudes!

On 2/29 I went to the CVS store # 4290 to purchase several things that were on sale so the 30% off did not apply but I was not asked if I wanted to redeem my 10$ reward bucks. I am disabled with dystonia which makes my head shake like Parkinson's and the cashier kept giving me negative looks and appeared more attention to my disability than doing what he should have which was to ask if I wanted to use my rewards bucks. I have the receipt and coupon if you would like me to send it in. I do not know how to take a picture of it to attach.

By the way, I tried 4x to call customer service and each time I was transferred by the robo phone and the call was dropped. Clean up your service.

The companies you promote are a scam. STOP THIS IMMEDIATELY.

KETO BLAZE. They suck you into paying only $5 shipping thru a CVS promo then send you 2 bottles, one you never ordered. Then bill you 2 shipping charges and bill you $8& & $84 for them the week you receive them. When I called to return them unused, I had to pay another $12.20 in UPS charges. Once they received the tracking number they only refunded me $84 and not the $88 or any of the bogus shipping charges. So I am out $88, $22 in shipping cost and no products. It's a SCAM and CVS should stop promoting this immediately.

I am Contacting the executive office of CVS and advise the BBB and every review venue I can about this travesty. How dare CVS be involved with a scam like this.

I called in 3 perscription to your store at 7208 fm78 in san antonio tx phone [protected]. My daughter who picked them up came home to see that i recieved one i did not order costing $30.00 when i called to exsplain they told me they could not take them back since they left the store ok understood mistake made by you not me. So my question is why cant you refund to me the $30.00 . I am solely on social security and think it would be a good gesture to do so. I Spend alot of money between myself and medicare a year, but will change to walgreens if you care less. In buisness its customer allways rite. My name is greg meisner birthdate 10/01/1952 you can check to see the money spent. I would at least like to know that this complaint has been recieved. Thank you

CVS Specialty Pharmacy's Service STINKS!

I am supposed to receive a self-injectable shot of Stelara once every eight weeks. I've done so through CVS three times. In all but one case, CVS SCREWED THIS UP so I had to take the shot as much as a week late!

They told me I would receive the shot on Feb. 28th, but IT NEVER ARRIVED. I called, and ONCE AGAIN was told there was some problem with the insurance approval - so why did they say it would definitely come on that date? The same thing happened once before! They had plenty of time to correct this, knowing exactly when I had to receive the shot.

They couldn't even tell me which insurance (Medicare or my secondary insurance) did not approve it yet. I had to call my doctor so he could expedite this. Meanwhile, I AM WITHOUT MY NECESSARY MEDICATION!

FOLLOWUP: My doctor told me he gets many complaints about CVS, but he has no control over the pharmacy - they are chosen by the insurance company, and CVS Specialty pharmacy has acquired a monopoly. No wonder an incompetent, greedy corpseration like this is a big-money Trump supporter! BOYCOTT CVS!

most of the time when i shop cvs in bedford, pa they never have the coffee listed in the sale flyers. why not?

today, march 1, 2020 i stopped in to cvs because i have $5.00 xtra bucks and a $10.00 carepass reward.

to my great liking coffee was available, laundry detergent was available, and deodorant was available. i was so happy.

got to the register i had a newspaper coupon for $1.00 off the coffee, and wanted to use by xtra bucks and carepass. to my dismay, the system was down therefore, if left everything sit and left empty handed.

now, my xtrabuck expires of $5.00 is probably gonna expire before i get back in to bedford cvs.

please extend my expiration notice so i don't lose it.

i spend alot of money at cvs to be inconvenienced by all of this.

let me add that it was not the associates fault nor the managers fault. they were both apologetic and kind to me.

thank you for listening.
