I recently went on Medicare so I needed to switch my medications from CVS to Walgreens for better cost savings. I take D-Amphetamine Salt 20 mg. twice a day. When it was time for a refill, I kept getting notified from Walgreens's that it was too soon to fill the prescription, which it was not as my last refill was on 05/7/2023 and it was 6/14/2023 that the...

Good Morning, The incident occurred on Thursday June 22, 2023 from 7:30pm-8:45pm at the pharmacy. My doctor prescribed Synthroid medication and the pharmacy was out of stock for a few days. I was told Freeport had it available on Tuesday 6/20. I went to Freeport, the pharmacist told me that they didn’t have it available and it would take a few days and it...

Walgreens Photo department toll-free line

I called your toll-free number [protected]) for the photo department to obtain the status of my VHS to DVD conversion order. The first piece of information I asked for was her name, in the event that we were cut off. She immediately became very hostile towards me, not wanting to give me her name. It took several attempts to find out her name. She continued to ignore my request, until she found that I was not about to give up, then begrudgingly gave it to me. She was very rude, unprofessional, unhelpful & the epitome of lazy. She would not help me, and proceeded to read from a script, something on the order of "I cannot help you.." Her name was with Jeanine. I realized that it was a waste of my valuable time, so I decided to contact my local Walgreens directly in Poinciana, FL. I spoke with Carlos in the photo department, who was very respectful, helpful & professional. I believe that it is important to commend Carlos for his professionalism and re-train Jeanine on Customer Service etiquette and work ethic.

Desired outcome: I would like to be informed that you have commended Carlos for his professionalism & had a meeting with Jeanine to discuss her disrespect, rudeness, hostility & lack of work ethic.

Walgreens Prescriptions

If my health is so important to you then why can't your pharmacy keep up with my medication refills? I left CVS for the same reason and it doesn't seem Walgreens can do any better. Instructions for refills are NOT to call your doctor. The pharmacy is supposed to contact the doctor for approval for refills. I was and I'm supposed to be on the "one tip" program, but it's not working and hasn't been for a long long time. I live 70 miles from the closest Walgreens and it costs me more in fuel to make multiple trips to get my medication than what my meds cost me. Why can't I get ALL my 90-day meds at the same time as I did several years ago? What's the problem?

Desired outcome: Receive ALL my 90-day meds at one time, PLEASE.

Walgreens Customer service misconduct/ safety

Purchased toilet paper and was on the phone but still responded to cashier - who apparently was covering manager. There was a small mixup if I wanted receipt but she had already ripped it up which was ok with me. As I was leaving she rudely commented I shouldn’t be on my phone. I walked back to register to clarify the situation and asked for her name to report her which she replied “none of your damn business” asked for name of manager above her and she refused. Long story short this cashier unnecessarily called cops and accused me of putting my hands In her face (which on was on toilet paper and the other was holding my phone) as well as told me I need to leave and said I was banned from this store and stepped into my personal space very confrontational. I would like to express my utter embarrassment considering where I live and my profession and the fact that I have shopped here often and have never had this kind of issue happen to me in my life. When I spoke with the cops they informed me she had mental health issues and there have had this kind of encounter with her before. She should not be in authority nor be unsupervised as I wasn’t sure what she was going to do when she came so close to me. She was also verbally aggressive with other customers and this absolutely has to be addressed for the safety of my self and other customers that shop in this store. I will be contacting store manager A. k and submitted service inquiry online for this issue.

Desired outcome: Escalated to appropriate authority. This employee should not be in position with authority let alone unsupervised with mental health issues

Walgreens $6.00 coupon

I purchased items on 06/12/23 and received a coupon for $6.00 which clearly says to be used on your next purchase. I went today to use the coupon. They told me at the store that I could use it next visit. I told the employee that was my next visit, and she said, that I have to present it on my second visit and get the credit on my Third visit.

It felt like I was buying from trump! You know, a dishonest business.

I have been a customer for 20 years. Walgreens 59 Boston st salem, MA 01970 has gone from good to terrible last 3 years. Everytime I fill an rx there's a problem. Never ready when promised and they do not pick up the phone. I gave up today. Even though I live on the same street I'm willing to drive 5 miles to cvs. Recently went to urgent care on Sunday...

This company is absolutely awful. I tried to fill my Xanax exactly when I was supposed to which was May 28th and it said call pharmacy so I call them and the earliest it could be done they said was the 29th, not thinking that is Memorial Day and they would be closed. So now this is going on 3 days of no meds and this pharmacist could have legally filled it...

I take insulin normally I get the text that it is ready for pickup so I go there but when I go in I am told they do not have enough so I can take a partial order and come back. so I usually take 3 visits to get the entire order. I guess they feel I have nothing better to do with my life. When I asked the tech why this happens so often she said they have a...

Introduction Walgreens Pharmacy is a well-known and reputable pharmacy that is committed to offering high-quality medical services to its clients.

For the fourth time in a few weeks, this pharmacy is closed. I am unable to refill my controlled drug prescription because the pharmacist at the Dekalb street location is unable to speak to the pharmacist at Dekalb street. This is crazy. I was told that a Walgreen's prescription could be filled anywhere in the US. Since the phone lines are not working for...

I am in complete awe of how this company has gone downhill. I have to call 3 times to be sure that my prescription is ready only to be told I have no prescription after I get there. Which I now find out that yes, I do still have a refill, and these are completely useless people. How many people does it take to get it right? I'm going somewhere that the employees are competent and have some work ethic.

Every time I have visited the Main Street location in Manchester CT there has been a dog in there. It’s not a support or seeing eye dog, no special collar or vest; just small dogs walking on a leash or in its owners arms. It’s not the same dog, but a different one every time. I don’t understand why dogs are being allowed in the store. Last time the dog wa...

Abuse and neglect at Walgreens: Walgreens Pharmacies run a 30 day operation for schedule to medications which means, one may only come in on day 30. Just theoretically speaking, a pharmacy manager should know exactly who is going to be arriving on their day 30.
