CB1 Medical Reviews 274

Honestly, from the first point of contact, it felt much more personal and helpful than other brands.

I was curious if it could help, turns out yes it can, and very well without the constant need for daily meds.

Every phone call, video cal and email has been welcoming, smooth and all questions answered promptly by caring knowledgeable staff.

Prices are competitive and no need to order every month, just when you need to.

If you’re curious, have a chat with them to see what the options are for you.

Thanks guys, you’re all amazing.

I'm not going to waste my time going and writing an essay, all there is to say is they were brilliant and now they are mediocre at best. I haven't had a next day delivery in a couple of months my latest couple of prescriptions have been a week late and the response time from them through email is abysmal. I will be changing after Christmas.

I don't understand the bad reviews here. My experience has been great, ordered my second lot of medication and despatch/delivery is fast. Ordering is easy and requests get approved quickly. Very nice.

Very fast replies to emails, decent online portal, helpful and friendly team. Very happy with the service.

Struggling with the App I spoke to Mohammed at cb1 he sorted everything super quick , efficient and most importantly Politely , top customer service as always but this young gentleman was an amazing example for the company thank you again Chris .

Been with cb1 since Feb 2025, fast and friendly service and always happy to help if you need it. My quality of life has improved so much being with cb1.

Started off okay 7 months prior, I didn't mind paying a little more fore a service that worked, its not really working that well. Also prices are higher for short dated flower, where everyone else seems to reflect the price drops these don't,

Completely bad and very disappointed in this company as I was with them a year or so up to now they got a new system and when I order, I paid for the medication. I got no medication at all and have been waiting for two weeks!! I phoned them and they said they refund my money into my bank account and I haven't received NO refund back. Its really disgusting how they treat the patients who need the medication. Absolutely fuming and I want my money back.
People say this company is good but not now they are not good, they say stuff to give you hope but it's all lies. Lies lies lies lies.. I will not recommend anyone who is using this company. They scammed me and its out of order. They are not 100% professional!!!!! Not professional and not trustworthy. They take your money and they don't give me a refund back!!! Absolutely terrible, what a joke. This company need to be shut down

Don’t waste your time, they can’t get orders out to you and don’t give any information on why apart from they’re using a new ordering system. They fall short of basic standards and you will often be left in pain as prescriptions/deliveries are so often late it leaves you in misery.

Just now been told the order that is already late for delivery is out of stock.
Fuming, blaming a new system when they had exactly the same issues when they launched their app. Obviously didn’t learn from that. I think they’re more interested in getting your money than they’re helping you. Patients care and wellbeing are seriously being impacted by CB1 medical.

I joined CB1 4 months ago my first appointment was great the doctors and staff all lovely, my follow up wasn’t as detailed but I got another appointment to try the oils v quickly.

I order my meds last week Wednesday but unfortunately their app has been taken down, so now you need order via the website which is fine,

However been left without meds for a week NOT because CB1 failed it was Royal Mail I’ve called them to conform this they didn’t scan any of the patients parcels hence why not delivered and cat get tracking.

This really isn’t their fault the clinic doesn’t want a patient without their meds it’s not intentional with autism
Yes can be very annoying but aim your complaints at Royal Mail not the poor staff.

I’ve not had a reply to a few emails but to be expected when 100s of patents having this issue with Royal Mail.

It’s certainly not ideal but not their fault I know they keep saying press 4 for the pharmacy but that no longer on
The IVR so you can’t contact the chemist seems the staff havnt been updated on this hence people calling up constantly.

They are a good genuine clinic yes its not perfect this situation but these things happen this evening had a text to say my meds will be delivered tomorrow Royal Mail had it since Friday.

So cut them some slack a little bit no point shouting again yes can be annoying but they are on it trying to resolve this asap and I’m proof of that.

My only other problem I had was with a borrocas strain called banana sherbet £9 a g amd it smelt off and wasn’t right couldn’t get anything off it which is v v rare I let the clinic know also so they can feed it back.

So yes I would still rate this place but vape flower a lot for my conditions so it is expensive if you have a script like me but where you gonna get the same amount medical grade at that price as the black market is way more expensive than this plus you know what your getting.

I intend to stay with the clinc nothing can be perfect all the time and I’m sure they will improve massively once the new system is running smoothly.

Only dropped 2 stats because of Royal Mail btw not because of CB1

They offer us an affordable way to access medication we need not many other places are this cheap so if you go another clinic gp but be prepared to pay for every appointment you make & isn’t cheap at all CB1 give it us all for £50 a year they have now even dropped that so it’s free stop complaining folks understand where they are coming from they have dispatched your meds it’s the currier and Royal Mail again admit this so you can’t blame the clinic it’s not their fault

Update I got my flower today not my edibles though called the clinic they said would refund and then can change for another product I have 10g flower left to but now every time I order it’s denied I’m not sure why I’m within my limits I’m guessing this could just be a fault of sorts as I had my follow up and that’s what was agreed upon I will call again tomorrow and find out what the issue is it maybe due to all delays and tech issues so I’m still not blaming the clinic as once this is all resolved I can see the reviews will just get better again it can’t be easy with the system switch and then total mail doing them dirty it’s still not really their fault. Will update again when I find out what’s up but they are still a decent clinic they just having a small blip with the systems

Update as of 23rd December 2025 I have had no issue ordering my prescription at all if the website does fail they will happily sort it for you quickly since the Royal Mail mess up there has been no delays in deliveries no problems with orders yes lots out of stock but that’s not their fault either however this month instead of oil I’ll do edibles so there is always an option.

I highly rate them yes the treatment is expensive for flower but it is everywhere for what CB1 charge you get a good deal they have now even axed £50 join fee so no fees and you get to speak to a clinician when you need to no problems on booking an appointment only in month 5 and had 3 appointments all been quite positive if your in the game for medical cannabis you can’t beat this clinic on price you just can’t and being on benefits nhs telling me u need it but have to pay yes kills my budget but means I sleep and have a lot less pain and PTSD

So ignore all the bad reviews they are a good clinic and value for money

I signed up to CB1 back around August 2025.
My consultation and experience with the process was great, however my 1st ever prescription was in limbo. It took me calling them to ask what the issue was. Turned out they needed to confirm my address. Not sure why I had to call in to do that mind, so instantly I was skeptical of the service. In fairness, they had it shipped out that day and it arrived the next.

Since then they been pretty good in general.

However, I ordered on Thursday 27th Nov as I always do on a Thursday (I will always have it delivered by Saturday). Like a lot of other reviews are saying, their medication has not even been scanned in by Royal Mail, when you check the tracking.

I spoke to Royal Mail a number of times and they confirmed the whole batch in which mine would have been part of, was not scanned in (basically it all vanished into thin air). CB1 say it's 100% been dispatched yet Royal Mail has no record of it being received.

I was called on the Thursday to confirm my address (not sure why since my last load of orders had been successful), so I found it strange that CB1 were asking to confirm my address, exactly in line with delivery issues.

Sadly CB1 has no answer to where the meds are and that's far too unprofessional for a pharmacy to be doing. I do feel for the staff, because they've all been as helpful as possible, but on the last few calls you can just tell they are defeated now, as they are being bombarded with calls.

I did get a discharge letter straight away in fairness to them and a refund is in the process.

Sad to say I will be swapping to a new provider over this. If it was a book from ebay or something, it wouldn't be the end of the world, but when it comes to medication, making mistakes like this is unacceptable.

CB1 could have offered to send out a new batch with another delivery service and if it turned out to be a Royal Mail issue, they could have sorted that between them, but CB1 are putting profit over patients in this case.

I do hope they manage to sort the issues out and bounce back. When they work, they were great, but sadly this issue has completely broken my trust with them.

When I joined CB1, it was great(for like a week). A seamless experience from the eligibility checks to the consultations to receiving my first prescription. that's where the seamlessness ended.

Upon receiving my first prescription I was told to email to get a follow-up appointment. I did this, I received no reply and no appointment. I chased this multiple times until an appointment was booked. At this point the follow-up appointment was booked so far after my first prescription had been received I was out of medication and due to the fact you require this follow-up appointment to be able to order a repeat this acted as a medication blocker.

Following this follow-up appointment I ordered more medication the tracking showed this to be delivered but I didn't receive anything. This was in October. I have still not heard back regarding the investigation. Nor have I had a refund for the missing prescription.

On Friday the 28th of November in the very early morning I ordered a repeat prescription for myself. Having checked it on Monday it hadn't moved, I allowed the day for it to progress but it's still haven't changed so I called today Tuesday 2nd December, to be told that this is probably out of stock and they'll refund me and I'll have to order a new one.

I have medicana as I am autistic and I have ADHD, I am completely without medication and the customer service agent showed absolutely no compassion or empathy. Told me "it's not just me" it was very clear the customer service agent was just trying to get me off the phone. By telling me we'll look into it and get back to you. I wouldn't accept that as an answer, I've been chasing my missing prescriptions since mid-october full stop and I still haven't heard back regarding that, I don't trust that I'm going to hear back regarding the prescription that's currently on the system but she thinks it's out of stock.

Medication being out of stock and causing issues is a frequent occurrence. I have been with CB1 since the end of September, I have already had four separate out of stock issues when ordering repeat prescriptions.

I think if you have medicanna for physical pain CB1 is fine. But for anyone neurodivergent who requires clear communication or consistent systems avoid this company.

I'm already looking for a good alternative to move to - I'd quite like my £120.10 back for the medication I've still not received.

P. S, you might want to let your phone handlers know "all my managers are in a meeting" isn't a suitable response when people request their complaints to be escalated and shows clear lack of compassion or patient care.

Been waiting for my prescription since the 19th November.... Nothing

The help desk and pharmacy arnt even in contact, they've clearly got issues as the help desk tells you to ring back and press "4" to be put through to the pharmacy to then be put into a queue of 30+ this is abysmal. The utter disregard of patient care. I was promised a 2nd prescription after I hadn't received anything. Still haven't received either with no update

Very close to requesting a refund and changing too a different clinic, this isn't good when lots of people rely on there prescriptions. The glowing negative reviews says it all recently.

Should have stuck with the app.

Poor CB1 are not having a good time of it these days, but I don't think a lot of their patients are either. I think right now they are losing patients at a faster rate than I am losing patience with them. They are doing their best though and they do go out of their way to help if you have issues, and they are nice people. If only the system they are using worked then everything would not be in the complete shambles it is currently in this week, as we approach the Xmas rush period. This ultimately lies at the heart of the current breakdown in services experienced by many people, my self included. Things did actually work not too bad before, if you could put up with their limited formulary which is supposed to be expanding next year. They will need to sort their act out if they are going to pull that off, but if they can do that then they might not be a bad option in 6 months to a year's time. They need to sort things out and hopefully they will, and the poor staff who's fault this mostly isn't can have a nice relaxing Xmas and New Year, as can their patients in the knowledge they will fully medicated for the festive period. They have been until now quick to respond to queries by phone or email, but at the moment they don't have the staff to deal with all the emails and phone calls they are getting as a result of the chaos they have created for themselves. They need to improve their internal communication a bit too, as it often feels like the staff member dealing with my calls isn't really registering what I am trying to communicate, too many standard email responses that don't really feel like the person who is replying has read everything you have said. Bit of overtime then, and some time to restore trust in your customer base. But the clock is ticking and I'm waiting on my discharge letter, which I hope arrives in a timely manner or else my fair 3 stars out of 5 might drop to a 2. I wish them all the best and have every faith that they can get things sorted going forward, but anyone considering signing up needs to know what they could be facing if they join right now. I wouldn't bother until at least next year if at all, and I can't say any fairer than that.

CB1 keeps emailing me for a review, so here it is.

CB1 Medical is unprofessional, disorganized, and concerning for patients. Orders are delayed for days or weeks, tracking is missing, and customer support is almost impossible to reach. Emails go unanswered, phone queues are long, and staff frequently provide conflicting or incorrect information.

The web-only system is broken and removes transparency, making it impossible to know the status of prescriptions or delivery dates. Repeat orders are often missing or canceled without explanation, leaving patients without essential medication. My last order was 26th November - I still havent received a tracking number. Minimal patient monitoring and mishandling of basic documentation show a disregard for patient wellbeing.

For a clinic handling regulated medication, this level of mismanagement is concerning and could impact patient safety.

Note on 5-star reviews: Some recent glowing reviews show a defensive tone, dismiss multiple negative reviews, and use generic praise like “easy and efficient” or “friendly people” without concrete examples of prescriptions, deliveries, or patient care. One review even labels other reviewers as “rivals” or belligerent, which is not a typical patient concern. The tone and content raise serious questions about their credibility, while the corroborated negative reviews from independent patients provide a more reliable picture of CB1’s service.

Please note that I am deeply suspicious of the bombastic, belligerent negative reviews on this site and imagine that they have been written by rivals. I have found that the service is easy and efficient. The 'phone is answered swiftly and by very friendly people. Turn around very speedy and ALL my email enquiries answered politely and in a timely manner.
TRUST THIS COMPANY

Update 2: Another order messed up, took payment over the phone and didn't mark it as paid on their end so I am waiting yet again for nothing. I don't understand how 1 company cannot do a single part of the process correctly. its embarassing.

Update, ultimately, my order took 2 weeks of being lied to, to even be dispatched. Company continues to disappoint at every turn. Still waiting for a call back from a manager from a month ago and unable to place orders currently due to the cheap, broken new system.

Update: I am still awaiting my order from 7 days ago. They finally sent it 5 days after they told me they had (After payment of course). Due to their use of the worst post service, it is now delayed in transit.

Though I am grateful for getting MC, I find the anxiety of waiting 5 days or so for your order to even update once (Post payment) is unpleasant. Add to this that if there are any issues, they absolutely will not contact you, and if you contact them they say it will be with you tomorrow, it will not.

The only thing I'd like from MC is somewhat prompt delivery, after 4 months of use I have had to 'get it locally' twice, due to week long waits.

i signed up service seemed to be good had a little while where everything went smooth I even would have given 4 star+ and recommend to others but over time it got worse and worse and the last month has been an complete joke.
they changed the entire system and made everything worse, removed the app so now its all a web based system and its so bad I cant even enter or save my payment details on it, like you expect it would be the main priority for them as that's were the money comes in to pay the their bills and wages but nope.
been waiting for a prescription for weeks even though its been paid items in stock etc, but every time I called I've been told by multiple different people its done its ready and its being sent out and it will be here by tomorrow. weeks go by and nothing, due to my complex health conditions (which they are very well aware of) im back to having major issues including requiring hospital visits and all this before even mentioning the stress and mental health effects from dealing with CB1.

DO NOT TRUST THEY WILL LIE TO YOU.... they will make up excuses and drag everything on for as long as possible make false promises and basically say anything to keep you with them but not actually do anything.
but thank you CB1 for the worst medical related service I have ever had, it has been a real eye opener to how incompetent a service in this industry can be.

My 1st online consultaion was booked for 11.30am 29/11/25
I sat online waiting from 11.15 - 12.20 in the consultation waiting room and no one showed up..not impressed !
