I redeemed 3000 points on 10/29/2024 for a specific prescription at ****************. That was for $3 off. This is what GoodRx emailed me: Every drug has a unique code which is called NDC (National Drug Code). Even though they are the same medication they have different NDC numbers. The pharmacy dispensed drug with NDC ***********; however, the coupon with the extra $3 off was supposed to be for NDC ***********. I walked to and from this pharmacy and heres what I found out: Just following up NDC *********** is the only one available and has been the only one ******* could fill since June 2024. NDC *********** is not available and hasnt been since JUNE 2024, 6/2024. I want my $3. Either give me my ***** points back or give me $3. I walked back to ******* and the pharmacist looked this up for me. The coupon I redeemed on 10/29/2024 was for an NDC code that is out of stock and will not be coming back. Please give me my points back.Business Response

GoodRx, a consumer prescription discounter developed a mobile application for locating and pricing prescriptions available at various local pharmacies in the application user's area. On October 23, 2024, I researched a prescription and was presented with numerous pharmacies and prescription costs where I could purchase. Several of the options offered a "Welcome Offer". This amounted to $10 off of the prescription price. On that basis, I chose a pharmacy and provided the doctor's prescription and the various GoodRx codes as instructed by the application. When I went back to pick up the drug, I did not get the discount. I was told by the pharmacy that they entered the information I provided and that was the price. I then contacted GoodRx's customer service. I was told that the "Welcome offer" only applied to the first prescription filled since opening an account with **********************. While I understand that is their explanation, there were not terms listed or explanation of the discount on the application. Further, I was logged in to the application so the software could have determined that it was not my first filled prescription, yet it still showed the discount. Adding insult to injury, I chose the pharmacy that would have one of the lowest prices after discount but paid more than other non-discounted prices offered at other pharmacies. This left me annoyed and feeling like I was an unwitting participant in a "bait and switch". There was no way for me to know that the cost I would be charged was different than what I was quoted. The GoodRx customer service supervisor just kept apologizing and saying that my account had been opened since 2003 and I filled a prescription in July of that year. I presented the facts to him (the app gives no terms or description, they say that the discount is only for the first prescription filled, I had a prescription filled previously) and requested written explanation for this discount be sent to my email but they refused.Business Response

Hello *****,
We were able to locate your call in our system and can understand where your confusion may have arisen.
As a customer since 2023, the welcome offer cannot be applied to your purchase, as it is intended for new GoodRx users creating their accounts for the first time. To qualify, you must create your GoodRx account before using any discount coupons or savings cards. Please note that the additional discounted promo pricing is not available for multiple uses of the same account, and only one promotional offer per user is permitted.Specific to your coupon, the $5.11 price appears as part of a special "Welcome Offer." When you select this coupon, you should see a blue banner labeled "Exclusive welcome offer," along with bold teal text indicating an extra discount. Below this in black, it states "First fill, then $__ on refills*" to signify the price without the exclusive offer.
We appreciate your feedback and will share it with our team to improve the visibility of these distinctions.

I signed up for a free 30 day trial of GoodRX Gold for prescription drug discounts in Dec 2023. I had a free GoodRX account already. I had to enter my credit card information. I cancelled the Gold account before the 30 day Gold trial was up. I then became seriously ill with a bacteria infection that made me bedridden. I required treatment for approximately 2.5 months I completely forgot about the GoodRX account since my new Humana healthcare plan kicked in with prescription drug benefits.Good RX billed me every month $9.99 since December 2023.I called ************ GoodRX customer service on 10-19-2024, in which I found thru an internet search. There was NO way in my free GoodRX account to contact customer service. The ********************** agent said they will only refund 6 months $59.94, not back to Dec 2023 which would be 11 months $109.89. When I log into my free GoodRX account using my phone number through the online app with my phone, there is no way to see my account history. But I have no GoodRX history, since I use my Humana healthcare plan drug benefits.Good RX uses the excuse I can't see my account history since I don't login to my GoodRX Gold account with the email address provided when I setup the GoodRX Gold account. But I cancelled the GoodRX Gold account and the online app allows login with only Name and phone number. I stopped using that ****** email address used to set up the Gold Account and there was no reason to consider that anyway, since I has already cancelled my GoodRX Gold account back in December 2023 and was getting my drugs thru Humana.Business Response

Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention, ******.
We have reviewed the information you provided and successfully located your call in our system. Upon further investigation, it appears there may have been a minor error when entering the coupon into the pharmacy's system. Additionally, please note that the $14 coupon is applicable only if the medication has prescribed to a human. The supplier restricts the sale of this medication to people only. If the medication is intended for a pet, a different coupon linked to a different supplier may be necessary, which could result in a change in price.
We sincerely apologize for the delays and any frustrations you experienced during this process. Our customer support team will be reaching out to you with further details and to address any questions you may have. If you have additional inquiries, please feel free to call us at ************ and reference ticket ##*******. Our team is more than happy to assist you.

To Whom it May Concern:I learned yesterday that GoodRx Gold has been charging my credit card unbeknownst to me since November 2023, I happened to notice a transaction made at 1:15am ET for $9.99 and did not recognize the purchase. When I researched further, I found I had been charged $244.43 from November 2023 through September 2024. Below are the charges I did not authorize:11/23/23: $59 12/11/23: $59 12/25/24: $19 12/28/24: $19 No charges *************** 2024.4/28/24 - 9/28/24: $9.99 each month The November charges were around the holidays when I had many charges and didn't notice. I use the credit card for many purchases and did not notice the other transactions in 2024 either.I called GoodRX at the number on my **** statement ************** on 9/29/24 and they said they could not access my information with only the last four digits of my credit card, my phone number and my name and requested my email and zip code. I was nervous about providing too much personal information so entered my email on their website to see if an account could be found. GoodRx sent a verification code to my email that I used on the website and my email is not linked to an account. Therefore, my email address would not be helpful for GoodRx to locate my account. Te representative asked me to call back the next day when someone with additional permissions could try to access my account.When I called back on 9/30/24, the representative said he needed the expiration date on my card and my date of birth to locate my account. This is suspicious as the exp. date is only used for new purchases. I am not comfortable providing my DOB. My credit card company can only take care of the last 6 months of charges, but not the $184.89 from 2023. This company has fraudulently charged my account and has admitted they do not have a record of my account after I finally shared my email address. They should provide me with a credit for the false charges.Business Response
