I got a prescription for bute recently to try and save some money by buying online.
The best price I got was from Pet Drugs Online There was the usual banner saying free delivery if you spent more than a certain amount which I had factored in when comparing prices. When I ordered free postage was selected by default and I didn't change it. Yes it was estimated 3 - 5 days and there were faster options, but I had two weeks before I ran out so wasn't in any hurry.
I wasn't wildly impressed when I ordered on the thurs and wasn't posted till the following Weds, but still OK and plenty of time.
When it still hadn't arrived after the weekend I decided to see if I could see where it was in the system. When I looked at my order history to try and find a tracking number I realised the address was wrong.
When I registered I opted for the tick box to use the billing address as the delivery address but when I looked at the order the address there was different in one crucial way. The delivery address was missing the street name and building number. So I had a flat number and a street.
So I contacted the company so they could correct it and their attitude was tough, nothing they could do as there was no tracking. if I had wanted security on it I shouldn't have left it as the default post but opted for 1st class. I frequently add signed for when I send things and you can do this 2nd class.
My mistake was I assumed as a prescription only medicine it would have been sent as signed for and there would have been some level of security. I've only ordered drugs from my vets before and I know they send everything signed for because they are POM so it never occurred to me I would have to pay extra. They won't even send a prescription without a signature so my mistake was that assuming a company that specialises in supplier drugs would be equally careful.
All they've offered is if it's returned to them they can send it out again
