      Hims and ********* has repeatedly refused to issue an itemized receipt, EOB or explanatory document for the payment of a prescription medication. I require this receipt for tax purposes, and Hims and Hers provides these receipts for other services, so its refusal to provide one for this particular service is arbitrary. There is no statement whatsoever anywhere on their website indicating that they will not issue itemized receipts for prescription medications, and if I had known that they would not do so, I quite frankly would not have authorized the transaction.

      Complaint: 23532128



      I am rejecting this response because:

      Hims and Hers, Inc did absolutely nothing in the email they sent to actually resolve the issue. They essentially said, “So sorry,” and tried to claim their hands were tied by regulations, and that was all. I reject their explanation as non-sensical, and will not accept any such apology that is not accompanied by an itemized receipt or a detailed letter with all the requisite information, which Hims and Hers, Inc, despite all its protestations to the contrary, absolutely is capable of producing with my consent, which I will give in writing. Until such time as they choose to produce such, I refuse to do any further business with them.



      Sincerely,

      Hello,


      We sincerely apologize if you didn't find our resolution satisfactory in our last response.

      As we mentioned in our email correspondence with you, Hims operates within a regulatory framework that governs how certain healthcare-related transactions, especially those involving prescription treatments for sensitive health conditions like sexual health, are documented and disclosed. While we strive to be as transparent as possible, our current policy limits the availability of traditional itemized receipts for specific prescription products in order to protect patient privacy and maintain compliance with pharmacy regulations.

      Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to help resolve this or answer any other questions for you by responding to the email we have sent to you.

      Sincerely,

      I was already taking *********** for several months from a local compounding pharmacy, prescribed by my doctor. I lost 10 lbs in a couple of months. I switched to HERS and paid for a year supply to save money- and ordered the same exact medication and dosage. I complained many times that I was not losing weight (I gained 5 lbs) and that it felt like nothing, like I was injecting water. I had received only 6 months worth, so I cancelled the last six months and received a refund. After taking this ineffective medication for 3 months, I requested a refund or replacement, suspecting that it was a bad batch. I was refused the replacement or refund. Basically they treated it as if it were not their problem and referred me to their source pharmacy. I no longer want anything from this company except a refund. I went from losing weight steadily to gaining weight steadily as soon as I started on their medication.

      Complaint: 23531650



      I am rejecting this response because:

      The business claims this is resolved because they refunded me for the balance of the subscription (medicine I was scheduled to receive in the future.)

      However, that has nothing to do with my complaint. My complaint refers to the initial shipment I did receive, and the ineffectiveness of that medicine. My claim is that there was something wrong with that batch of medicine. This company will not take responsibility for its lack of quality control. I want a refund for the initial shipment of medication which caused me to gain weight rather than lose.

      Hello, I recently ordered a prescription product from Hims (a chewable tablet with *********** and *********). After answering a brief questionnaire, I was given a subscription recommendation, asked to provide a credit card to proceed to a provider review, and then approved by a provider. My order was then processed and shipped at the same time as I ****** wasnt until after my approval and shipment notification that I was given access to the full list of potential side effects. Only then did I learn about the serious risks associated with *********** including depression, suicidal thoughts, sexual dysfunction, and possible long-term hormonal issues.I contacted Hims support to request a refund, but was told their policy does not allow it once the product has shipped. The medication is unused, and I believe I was not provided the necessary information in time to give fully informed consent.I am requesting a full refund due to these health and safety concerns, and I have already paused all future ************ filing this complaint in hopes of resolving the issue fairly and respectfully.Order Number: XSx5t5PgZpo Full Name: ****** ******* Email: ************************

      Ive had a saga of medical issues(chest pain, lightheadedness, etc..) that I believe could be related to their topical head spray. I thought that I canceld all subscriptions a while ago, but I got a email on June 26th saying my order has shipped. I immediately reached out to Hims, but they explained because my request wasnt within 48 hours of renewal that they could not cancel or refund that particular order. Given the product hadnt been received by **** at the time of my request, I believe they had an opportunity to hold shipment.Its common practice to provide notifications of upcoming subscription renewal, and I believe its an intentional practice to withhold that information.If CC chargeback is unsuccessful, Ill be out 175 dollars for a product thats potentially related to my awful health as of late.

      Hers charged me for an order on my subscription before the next shipment is supposed to be sent. I did not get any notification about the charge to my debit card. I tried to contact them several times before the shipment was sent and never got a response.

      I had a topical medication subscription with Hims, however I forgot my subscription was still active. One day randomly I got a notification on the evening saying order shipped and Im charged $200. I logged in to cancel the subscription but no option to stop the shipment. I called next day morning immediately and customer service says once shipped from pharmacy they cannot do anything. Very sneaky if you ask me. I have many subscription services and they all have advanced notice so I can adjust the deliver as needed.

      I am filing a complaint against Hims & Hers Inc. for unethical business practices and false advertising regarding a weight loss product purchased in January/February 2025 for $897. Before purchasing, I provided detailed body composition, diet, and lifestyle information to ensure product suitability, and was assured it would help me lose weight based on my specific circumstances.Instead of the promised weight loss, I gained 18 pounds while using the product as directed over 2 months, the complete opposite of advertised results. When I contacted customer service about the product failure, they asked me to spend an additional $2,000 to change medications despite the original being completely ineffective. Representatives admitted the product "doesn't work well for everybody" and "only works sometimes" - critical information never disclosed before purchase.I have repeatedly requested a refund over 2-3 months. Initially promised someone would contact me, no one ever did. When I followed up, I was told they would not provide any refund. **************** has been consistently unresponsive and unhelpful throughout this process.This appears to feel like a deliberate scam where Hims & Hers takes customers' money, provides ineffective products with opposite results, then demands more money to "fix" their mistakes. Their admission that products "only work sometimes" while making guarantees suggests knowingly selling ineffective treatments.I am seeking a full refund of $897 for this misrepresented, ineffective product that caused weight gain rather than loss and was backed by deceptive business practices.

There are many ways to refund, you can open a new charge back, send a check, etc. your team has once again given me the same cookie cutter response that I was getting before.
