I have had recurring charges for the GoldRX membership even though I cancelled it in January of 2023. If I log into my account, the account settings states that I have been a Free member since 2023 (photo attached). There is no way for me to contact anyone except a phone service. I cant even cancel it using the app because I technically have a free account.Business Response

Hello ******,
Thank you for reaching out about this. Using the information you provided we were able to locate the GoodRx Gold account and have cancelled it. We are also refunded all charges related to the account, with exception with the 2 most recent. Since the 2 most recent are being disputed through your bank, they are currently under review and unable to be adjusted by our team. Once the dispute has been completed we will be happy to refund those as well. We have also removed your card from our system, to prevent any other charges occurring in the future.
If we can provide you with any further assistance, please let us know; we'd be happy to help.

Downloaded GoodRX app, looked up medication at appropriate pharmacy and downloaded coupon.When I tried to use the coupon, instead of medication being $3.83 as per coupon, it was $52 as per pharmacy. Another medication was $107 and not the $20.53 on the coupon.The pharmacy said it was GoodRX not being honest. I refused to pay those costs.Business Response

In March of 2023, I used GoodRX's app-based online telehealth ******* to receive treatment for a medical condition. I was charged $9.99 for signing up for GoodRX's ****** ******* to have access to the telehealth ******* and was also charged $19.99 for the telehealth visit. After receiving my treatment I cancelled the ******* through the app.In January of 2024 I returned to GoodRX's app-based ******* to receive treatment for another medical condition. I discovered my cancellation to the monthly Gold ******* was never honored and my card was being charged $9.99 a month for the now 9 months that had passed since my first treatment. I paid an additional $19.99 for another telehealth visit, submitted another cancellation request to the monthly subscription.I have been searching for receipts for the $9.99 monthly charges and could not locate anywhere on the GoodRX website or app with a transaction history for the monthly charges. All I could locate was an order history for the $19.99 visits. Additionally I never received any emails from GoodRX or an affiliate regarding the monthly subscription. This leads me to believe that there was an intentional concealing of the recurring subscription. A short ****** search led me to find other people with a similar experience.I would like a refund of the monthly subscription charges that I did not consent to and was not notified of. These charges were applied for the months of April to December with a total amount of $89.91. Attached is my card statement showing all charges from GoodRX in the year of 2023.Business Response

I entered my information for an online doctor at GoodRx on 4/4/24. The website states that someone will respond with in 8 hours if it is after hours. It was at 9:11 p.m. when I filled out the information. The website asked me to provide my payment information, which I did. After 13 hours of not hearing a response, I sent a message, which is how they advise to contact them. I received no response, after an hour I messaged again, and received no response. I then sent an email which responded with an automated response, I sent another email to see if it would then be sent to a person, but never received a response. I googled a phone number to call if I needed a refund. I called that number at 11:47 a.m. and was informed they could not issue me a refund, even though the service I paid for was not provided. This seems fraudulent as they are advertising a service and taking money for it, but not providing the service. I just want my money back.Business Response

April 4, 2024 - I used GoodRX online consultation to get a prescription for an antibiotic. Nurse clinician was prompt and issued prescription. No complaints there.GoodRX takes me to pharmacy options page, I select Valu Market in **************, ** because it was near me and most affordable. After GoodRx sent the prescription, I called the pharmacy to doublecheck that they received it. I said it was sent digitally from GoodRX. They confirmed it.When I arrived to pickup the prescription, I was informed they do not accept GoodRx coupons. I was charged 2x what GoodRX quoted. I paid because I needed the meds.I called GoodRxs advocate line and they told me they no longer work with that pharmacy chain, but they couldnt explain why they still list in their pickup location options.So please, PLEASE, go through your pharmacy lists and remove all the pharmacies that no longer work with GoodRX. Do not list pharmacies that do not accept GoodRX coupons. Very misleading and made me feel like I was scammed even though I understand thats not the case.Now I will not trust GoodRX pharmacy lists and always call to confirm if they accept GoodRx coupons ahead of time.Business Response

I've long been a "gold" member of this company paying a monthly fee and up until now was satisfied with their work however, I am very disappointed with this company. They guarantee same day or next day assistance and over a week ago I did my online visit for refill of my bc pills which I take for my mennhoragia. I specifically said I needed the 91 day pack because it helps control my pain and bleeding. In the past this was never an issue. This time they called in the wrong thing and my pharmacy let me know what I needed to tell them to do so I did and they still sent the wrong thing (28 day). I've been asking daily for help to get the right thing as now I'm in a significant amount of pain due to being out of my medicine. Days ago they said they would call the pharmacy and they still have not. Every day I sign into the chat (only way to reach them) and it's basically radio silence except for the "it's in the queue". I understand there was a holiday so I was even willing to be understanding but it has now been a week with no progress. I'm extremely frustrated.Business Response

In December of 2023 I received an undated letter from GoodRx Gold stating that my pharmacy, ****** would no longer accept my GoodRx Card as of January 1, 2024. This was correct. It also stated that if I would switch a prescription to another pharmacy that still accepted the Gold card that they would send me a $100 **** prepaid card within 6 to 8 weeks. CVS Pharmacy was listed in the letter as one of pharmacys still accepting the Gold card. On January 17, 2023 I took my prescription bottle for Prednisone which had 1 refill remaining to CVS and they filled it on January 18 using my Gold card. To date, I have not received my $100 **** prepaid card. I called a customer support number on 3/10/24 and spoke with a **** who said he would escalate this issue to the marketing department. He gave me a case #*******. I heard nothing and called back on 3/26 and talked to a ******* who read from the same script as **** and gave another case number, *******. Today is March 30, and I still have gotten no reply from anyone at the company. I feel as though we have a contract: GoodRx made me an offer, I accepted their offer by changing pharmacies, now they should honor their part of the contract.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:
They promised me they would e-mail a gift card on 4/1/24 within 10 days. Today is 4/12/24 and I havent received it. This is a scam and they should be held accountable. Ill never do business with Good Rx again.

I have canceled my Gold RX membership before the free trial period ends. The term states that I will not be charge any membership fee if I canceled before the trial period ends. However, my debit card has continually seen charge attempts made from Gold RX even after I had received a confirmation email that my account has closed. I contacted Gold RX customer representation about the problem but received an email reply asking if I would like to restart the Gold membership. I replied no and requested that my account be closed immediately. The customer rep replied saying that has has closed my account and I should not see anymore charges from Good RX. However, two days after his email, I received another charge attempt. I would like to file a complaint against Good RX and its clear and abusive behavior and possible fraud scheme to ******* money from unsuspecting customers who signed up for their service. I saved every correspondence and bank receipts to show the communication history and charge attempts made even after the account was cancelled.Business Response
