I have been with Dr Franks for over 12 months and it has turned into a disaster. Delays in supply erratically but the latest is the worst. They took payment 2 months ago and I am still waiting! All my emails are being ignored. I have asked for a refund but no joy.

This company is a scam

This company is a scam, do not use just look at the reviews. They have taken money from my account and not supplied the medication. No one returns your emails, you get no support whatsoever. It Amazes me how a professor dr Franklin Joseph is putting his name to this con.

Very poor service with no time frame of delivery or if the order is being processed, Email their enquiry was told on three occasions that I would receive the order in 72hours that was a month ago. Really poor and disappointing service

Delays and cannot speak to anyone

I ordered Mounjaro a month ago. I have sent emails and tried to call. Even had an online appointment. I’ve received no medication and no response at all. Given I set up a direct debit for monthly prescriptions, the next direct debit is due and I still haven’t had my first order. They were not so slow at taking my money however. £300

STILL note received my order or refund

STILL note received my order or refund.
Yet they continue to send out promotional emails to lure vulnerable customers in to pay less for their medication. They have zero intention of sending your meds out. They are thieves. My order was on the 9th April. It’s now the 17th May. My bank can’t get the money back and they won’t answer any of my complaint emails. Absolute scum.

AVOID AVOID AVOID

Order placed, payment taken and my order has never been dispatched. Nobody ever answers any emails. The phone line either doesn’t work or nobody answers. Avoid this company at all costs. They may offer low prices but they take your money and run. A total disgrace!

Please please don’t use this company!!

Please please don’t use this company.
I don’t know how they’re still operating.

Ordered an item on the 9th April.
I received no communication after. The order never progressed and I emailed numerous times asking for updates, nothing.
After 2 weeks of waiting, I emailed to cancel the order. Again, nothing.

I ended up going through my bank to get my money back.
Dr Franks then emailed me saying the order has been cancelled and I was declined my item. Which isn’t true. I wasn’t declined anything.

They then said I will get a refund but only when I cancel the dispute raised through my bank. I spoke to my bank about this and they said do NOT cancel the dispute.
As once this is cancelled, Dr Franks can keep the money as I have technically resulted the dispute.

It’s now the 16th May and I’m still waiting for my money back.
I’ve emailed 4 times. Nothing back.

Please don’t use them.
It’s just added stress you don’t need.
They are a scam of a company.

UPDATE:
Still no reply from this sham of a company and still no refund.

Please don’t use them. They shouldn’t be operating still.

APPAULING!This company is stealing money from people in the UK. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES USE DR FRANKS/ HOWELL MEDICAL GROUP. The phone number in Liverpool is bogus, they have moved head offices, the email for complaints is bogus...THE QUALITY CARE COMMISSION SAY THEY ARE NOT PERFORMING WELL.....THEY WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND NOT PROVIDE YOU WITH YOUR ORDER. Need to be closed down.

They havent sent my order even after 2 months

I have been with this pharmacy for more than a year, my last purchase was a 3 months Mounjaro injections. They sent me 2 and as for last month haven’t received anything. Emailed them 3 times but still nothing. Not sure if they are still working or not, had to buy my other pens from another company since April.

I recently paid for a 3 month subscription and whilst i received the first 2 months, the third month has not been received and when you try to contact them they ignore emails, no tel number and now have removed any knowledge of my orders from my account that i have with them. Sadly i had not read the reviews on her prior to ordering through them but it clearly looks like they are unscrupulous and not to be trusted, they would have a tel number to speak with someone as the service is appalling. I would avoid this company as best you can and i certainly shall not be ordering through them again. I am approaching my bank for a refund and claiming fraud for non fulfillment of an order.

Exit scamming

Exit scamming. Not replying to emails. Not posting prescription. Removed telephone number and chat from website. YET STILL TAKING ORDERS THROUGH THE WEBSITE AND TAKING YOUR CASH. Raise a fraud case with your card provider.
