      I went through the process of getting a subscription for both hair products and face products. Neither of these products are obtainable by any other pharmacies. I needed my hair product delivered early, so on 7/29 I click the button to order early. I understand global supply chains etc., but since then I have emailed three times and messaged 4 times and gotten zero responses from any human being including the doctors that prescribed the meds. No matter what kind of crazy weather or supply problems are happening around the world, you should be able to answer a customer service question. My order has still not shipped, and now after using the product for over three months and seeing some results, I have no product left to use. I either want the product shipped out now so hopefully I can keep from reversing the good results I was seeing, or all my subscriptions to be canceled. That order has been sitting there and not even been processed or shipped since 7/29. If anyone had reached out and talked to me, or given me another solution in the meantime, I may be more understanding. But you cannot run a business and go radio silence on people that you have written prescriptions too. Especially not when they cannot get that prescription from any other provider. Where else can you get prescriptions and not have a customer care team. Its dangerous. Its completely different than from when I first started, which makes me think something has happened at the company. But if they have furloughed employees etc., they need to let everyone know. Im supposed to be under the care of a doctor, and my doctor is not responding.

      I snoozed/paused the subscription service because their medication doesn't work (followed instructions/guidelines). They didn't notify me that my subscription was set to renew soon, and billed me for another shipment that I didn't ask for or want.I cancelled my subscription, but it was virtually impossible to cancel the pending order, even though it hadn't shipped yet. All I was allowed to do was email customer service and state that I didn't want the product and I wanted a refund. **************** replied that they would get back to me in 7 days, and then proceeded to ship the order.It is virtually impossible to cancel an order from Hims. As an online retailer, it should be mandatory to provide options to customers who wish to cancel an order - especially if it hasn't even shipped yet. Shady business practices.

      On 5/13/22 I purchased products for ******. I was unsatisfied with this product and canceled my subscription. At the beginning of this month I was charged another ****** and discovered a ***** charge I never agreed to. I have reached out to hims *** and have got no response but I keep receiving junk mail. I want the ***** fee refunded as well as the ****** as I've received no further product from them because I canceled my subscription to their crappy product.

      On 09/07/2021 I created an order for acne cream medication ($45), and it came with a subscription. After two months, and receiving my second delivery ($45) on 10/08/2021. At that point I tried to cancel my subscription (just had too much product) but could not figure out how. It only allowed me to skip refills until 08/04/2022. I had thought this was the way end the subscription. Apparently it is not, as today (08/04/2022) I was charged $45 again without even notifying me that the subscription was re activated or something like that. I still cannot figure out how to cancel my subscription. I would for my subscription to be canceled and for my most recent charge to be reimbursed (order no. re9ZmG69g4M) if possible as I did not consent to it and was not aware of its existence until it was too late. Thank you.

      Was interested in getting some Sildenafil for *** I am 71 and ******** does not cover it.Completed their online form. Their Nurse Practitioner messaged me saying that the prescription would be filled. They debited my bank account for the agreed-upon price ($273)The tracking link showed delivery for July 28th (today), then it showed August 3rd. Now it shows August 5th. Two weeks. Seriously?I tried several avenues for support and received nothing. Very responsive when it comes to taking my money but a brick wall when it comes to offering support.I want to cancel my subscription but do not see a way to do that online.

      I signed up with Hers for a consultation for my mental health after hearing good reviews about this company. I then signed up and spoke with a licensed doctor (not even sure if its true at this point) I was told and saw that the first month would be charged $25 dollars for my medication, but they attempted to charges me $123 dollars. Weird amount honestly. I emailed them about it, got an automated reply (Ill attach below)I actually have emailed them 3 times since last week, not one time did they email me back besides the automated reply that is sent out. After digging around on ****** about this place I finally saw reviews that says that they believe its a scam and they never reply to the emails sent to them or return phone calls. Ive done a dispute with my bank about this Monday July 25th *********** charged me $123 dollars July 22nd AFTER my account was deleted and I cant even access it anymore. I asked for it to be deleted after they tried to charge me the $123 the first time.
