    I ordered medical supplies on 22nd November. Till now there is no shipping information updated on the website. When I send email to customer care, there is no response. Also when I call customer care, they give vague response saying there was IT problem in the warehouse after two weeks of continous followup. The live chat on website closes abruptly without anyone responding after 2 minutes.

    Good day 

    Please accept our apologies for the delay in this matter.

    The request for feedback relating to this complaint was issued to our head office in Mavern PA, which was not open over the festive period. Since re-opening, the complaint has taken a few days to reach the correct department. 

    I have reviewed the complaint and communication wish Naresh and attach it for your perusal. During the early part of December the EDI exchange between our ordering system and our warehouse and logistic provider's systems faced some issues, which did indeed result in a delay of orders being completed, and a delay in tracking information being transmitted back to our CS agents. However, goods were confirmed as delivered before Christmas and our CS agents advised the delivery and provided a link to the tracking information. We have not since heard from Naresh and as such consider the matter closed. 

    Thank you

    Case Number: ******** On 08/10/2022 I purchased a blood glucose monitor from ********* (Onetouch Verio Reflect ). I paid $29.58 in addition to tax. I found that my health Insurance Company does not cover this type of monitor. I went back to ******* store to return it but they told me there is no return on health products and I have to contact the manufacturer to arrange for return. I called Lifescan and they sent me a return kit with instructions and a prepaid box having a return address on it. I mailed them the monitor in its original unopened box on 08/19/2022 in their return box. They mentioned that the refund will be issued within 8 weeks. It has been more than 18 weeks since I made the return. I called them 3 times and the last call was on 12/11/2022 at 10:04 am and each time they told me they will issue a refund. Please the case number they provided me with is: ********

    Regarding Better Business Bureau Complaint ID: ********, our first contact with the customer was made on August 11th, 2022. During that interaction he informed us that he would like to receive a refund for his product, a OneTouch Verio Reflect blood glucose meter.  The call was documented in our system under the case number ******** and the process for the refund was started as per our internal procedures.  

      

    Per our instructions, the customer sent the products back to us on August 19th, 2022. On November 11th, 2022, the customer contacted us back to receive an update on the status of his refund.  During that call he was informed that we had not yet received his products back and was advised that we required a timeframe of 90 days in order to allow the products to return to us.  The customer contacted us back on November 21st, 2022, 10 days after his last call, to get another update.  At that time, we still had not received his products back, but proceeded to honor his refund in good faith. We have record of a call from the customer on December 14th, telling us that his refund had still not been issued. Our representative told the customer the case was going to be escalated and through internal investigation we found that due to the holiday season & some difficulties with processing, it took longer than anticipated to complete. According to our records, the customer’s refund was processed & a check issued to him as of December 29th 2022.

     

    As of today’s date, we have not heard back from the customer, so we are unable to confirm if the check was received by the customer. We consider this matter closed.

     

    Sincerely, 

    LifeScan Customer Care
