They lie to you about taking good rx and then decline when you get to the store

confirmed with pharmacist that they would take good rx coupon on otc item. went to store to purchase and noone would admit they said that and would not honor the coupon. in another instance at another store, the pharmacist flat out said they did not have the item when it was in fact in stock on the shelf. customer service does very little to correct this lack of service. extremely difficult to contact personnel in the pharmacy department.

Not getting my problem resolved.

A purchase a couple of gift cards at the Walgreens in Olive branch in June. One gift card activated a medically. The other 1 said 24 hour activation. I waited 24 hours. The card did not activate the Storer's policy. Has no refunds on gift cards or no exchanges. that in case there's a problem. Walgreens has $280 over a couple of months. Money this is going on for a while. I would like to get it resolved.

Rude manager and terrible service

Updated by user Jul 28, 2023
I spoke with corporate after 2 hours on hold. No resolution. I want a full refund and they also forgot one of my items but i didnt want to go back to get my item because of the service i got was so horrible and i had my child with me

Original review Jul 28, 2023
They forgot an item in a pick up order, then they refused to print me a receipt! I asked for a manger and kia the lady said she was the manager. She tried to accuse me of stealing when all items were paid for. I had my child with me and could not believe how rude the manager was to me. There should be no reason i am denied a receipt!!! Also, every thing was paid for in advance! I cannot believe how they treat their customers!!! Cvs is so much better! Dont waste your time. This particular walgreens is horrible! The manager clearly hates her job and is miserable!!! I spend alot of money at Walgreens, very upset about this situation. I have called corporate but they were no help and i was on hold 4 different times for over 30 minutes each time. A total of 2 hours waiting to speak to corporate. They need to go out of business, the punk rocker (manager) with pink hair and piercings is clearly not qualified for her position and sucks at customer service!!!

I had an issue with one of your employees

My husband and I tried to return an item that we purchased. A manager that the employee had called over to complete the return accused us because she supposedly didn't see us come in with the items that we were returning so she basically accused of stealing.. we asked her to look at the cameras and she called us motherf****. Told us we better not be playing around in her store stealing or we will go to jail!!! Remind you we've been in this Walgreens.. we offered to wait while she looked at the camera which she didn't want to do.I mentioned how embarrassing the situation was to my husband and she turned around and looked at me and said well don't be embarrassing!!! then and called us *** again in front of a bunch of other customers that were waiting in line!!!. We called Walgreens customer complaint line.. we we're assured that the problem would be handled and we have not heard a response back from anyone.

Walgreens I Just Awful - Don't Shop At Walgreens

Walgreens is deteriorating badly. Product quality. Fake "sales" prices that are way above regular retail - can you believe that they try to deceive and cheat their own customers? Customer service is terrible. The corporate office sucks badly and is motivated only by money, not customer satisfaction. In Buffalo, New York there is an employee named Lena who is the worst service rep ever and should be released by Walgreens for stupidity. Walgreens photo lab is a disaster and cuts off the photos, trying to save money on the printing paper and ripping off their customers. I had to go outside of the company to get my money back after Walgreens acknowledged the problem and decided to do nothing about it. My credit card bank took the money back whether Walgreens liked it or not. That's when and why I dumped Walgreens. This is not the same company it used to be. It was merged with Alliance Boots which is milking it for money. Walgreens puts less in the packaged than before, and their prices are ridiculous as is the entire company. DUMP WALGREENS and shop elsewhere to get better value and service. Do not shop at Rite Aid, either. Walgreens owns them, too. Walgreens sucks, dump 'em and never shop there again.

Prescription

Currently, in between insurances, so I wanted to pay cash. Pharmacist would not respond to Medicare supervisor or past insurance supervisor, to explain. I have no coverage. I need medication as I am post-operative for my full knee replacement and need to perform my physical therapy duties. No cooperation. Very unprofessional pharmacists.

5/5

Customer service is always friendly and professional

I simply wanted to speak with an actual person to make a credit card payment. However, I just do the connection issues. I did encounter problems with the online service. Repeating my Social Security number could not be processed at the time. It was a little frustrating and time-consuming. Fortunately, I was redirected to a customer service representative.

I called and apple advisor they put a case on Walgrens not honoring my $500 paid to them one Apple gift card.

Very poor service in DeRidder Louisiana

Every single time a prescription is made, it takes an average of three trips to Walgreens and two to three days to get it filled. The automated prescription refill system almost never has my request in the system even after giving it an extra day or two to pick up. I can never get through on the phone to speak with a pharmacist. Hold time averaging 40 minutes up to an hour and a half. When the 1 1/2 hour hold time was finally answered, the call was either dropped or employee hung up.

Refilling Controlled Substance

I have been filling a prescription for a controlled substance through a Walgreens pharmacy for six months now. Each month the prescription has been filled 3-7 days early with no problem whatsoever. Prior to this, the prescription had been filled at a CVS pharmacy for years. I changed pharmacies only because I moved. I have had the same doctor prescribing this for about five years now. I have never had a problem filling this prescription before this month. I called Walgreens to have my prescription filled five days early. My insurance company already cleared that it would be covered. The pharmacy tech put it through and said it would be ready in about an hour. Two hours later I called the pharmacy as I still had not received a text message saying that it was ready. I was then informed by the pharmacy tech that it could not be filled yet because it was five days too soon. I was told in order to have it filled sooner, my doctor's office would need to call and release the prescription early. I had my doctor's office call Walgreens to do so. Walgreens then sends my refill history and asks them if they were aware that I have been filling early. My doctors office still wanted the prescription released and suggested that I have it filled weekly instead of monthly then. The pharmacist states that this would be inconvenient to me WITHOUT CONSULTING ME. It is four days early and I have yet to have my prescription filled. Today I called the Walgreens pharmacy to ask that the prescription be filled tomorrow on the 30th day. I explained my confusion and frustration regarding that inconsistency and she hung up on me. I was not expletive or yelling. After this I finally called the corporate Walgreens office and filed a formal complaint. My complaint was documented and I was assured someone will call me back within two business days. Why is this a problem? Because this "controlled substance" is a medication I cannot just be off of for 5 days and not have consequences. This controlled substance comes with a dependence on the medication which does not make me a criminal of a druggie. This is a prescription from a reputable doctor that I need. I don't feel that Walgreens should have exhibited this type of control over medication out of the blue. If it was fine for the past six months to fill early, why isn't it now? I should have been told that filling early was an "exception" they were making. Because of their inconsistency I have been hospitalized for withdrawal side effects and have missed work. This is unacceptable.
