Took 5 days to dispatch medine

Took 5 days to dispatch medine. Combined with poor royal mail delivery means it's taken over 2 weeks so far from ordering and still not received.

In response to Wells comment:
I rang on Tues 7th as still not dispatched and was offered a return of prescription to order locally as was going on holiday on 8th. However as working all day was not able to do this so decided to manage. I wish it had been delivered on the 7th...

Service Failure

I requested a repeat prescription with a weeks worth of medication left and I’m very saddened that it arrived 4 days after I had run out. It’s unbelievable, it should not happen, the service must improve, especially as there will be some people whose health could be severely impacted if they were to experience such a delay!

Highly recommend this service

Highly recommend this service. It’s so much easier than standing in a queue in the Chemist. I order my prescriptions on NHS app, My GP approves and sent the prescription to Well online pharmacy. They have a great app and I can watch the progress. They notify me when dispatched. Then Royal Mail deliver it 24 hours later. Perfect!

Hi Sue,

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us.

Expedited delivery does not guarantee next day delivery as it can depend what time you placed your order. Orders require to be processed before dispatching and depending on the item, may require approval from a pharmacist.

The item you ordered was a pharmacy medicine, this will have required a pharmacist approval before it could be dispatched.

Once approved, orders are then dispensed and dispatched via:

Royal Mail 24hr (Tracked24) for express delivery - Delivery can take 1-2 days.
Royal Mail 48hr (Tracked48) for standard delivery - Delivery can take 3-5 days.

The email reminding Robin Turner to renew prescription gave renewal option for Kathryn Turner's prescription. Sometimes the opposite happens in emails. Both correctable on NHS apps. Early ordering essential, as arrival of medication is at least 2 weeks after ordering . No incorrect medication has arrived so good in that department
