My experience with 80DollarConsults.com has been most pleasant. My consult took place the same day as requested. Shipment arrived via UPS in 2 days as requested.

My initial impression was skeptical because they only communicate via email however, they do respond within 4 hours as promised.

My wish list would include them accepting credit cards so as to save me the $12.00 COD fee and the inconvenience of having to go to the bank but it's a small price to pay.

My previous OCS prescribed quanity 120 instead of 80DollarConsults 100 max but again a small price to pay for an OCS that is in business and doesn't leave their customers hanging with empty promises about when they might re-open (if ever).

I have just requested my first refill (fill plus 2 were provided) and it was a fully automated process and quite painless.

Overall score is a 9.0 (very satisfied and just short of perfect).

I have not had a good experience with them. There customer service is good-emailing answers quickly, but I have used the same medical records with another site earlier this year, and 80dollarconsults turned it down. I really don't get why they waste time with people if there not going to prescribe!

This message is to diarra,

Can I ask what company/pharmacy you went with. I have had the same problem (which I still can't believe) but with a different pharmacy so now I am back to researching. UGH

You can send me a private message if you would like
Thanks

I actually tried some other med records that I had and they accepted those. When the Dr called he told me that he could not give refills because that would be iilegal. When I asked 80dollar about it-they said that they had no idea what he was talking about and that they are not responsible for the info that the Dr says. (Even though they reffered the dr to call me-me and the Dr were not aware of each others' existance before)

I would expect them to at least be using and aware of the same laws. Someone is lying and I leave that up to them to figure out.

I will not use this service-the are not honest and take no responsibility for their job! Buyer Beware!

Once you have posted 25 times you will be able to pm people. There are many good rop's out there now. The one I use (1stpriorityrx) charges 1/3 of the consultation w/each fill so you don't have to pay for it all at once. They also have lots of positive feedback. You can scan your records and email it instead of faxing, if you prefer. They take cc's. Prices for meds are reasonable. Hope this helps you guys.

I did not have a good experience with this company either. So, I went to another ROP that was happy to help and assist a person with CP. My experience included 7 faxes of my ID, they stated they "could not read it." I tried every contrast, enlargement, you name it, I tried it. Then when I cancelled my consult, all of a sudden I had one arranged. To top my story off is I received an e-mail stating that the Dr. recommended I take "tylenol."

Okay, the rep states take a "tylenol" per the physicians order after I cancelled my request for one. Happy there are many other choices out there. As a refugee from the "closings" with degenerative disc disease, bulging discs, sciatic nerve damage and the need for right hip replacement, I guess I would have to take a "tylenol." The constant faxing and smart remarks were my issue with this company. Not good business.

This is the first time I've used 80dollarconsults and my experience was very pleasant. I faxed them my medical records and within two hours I had my consultation scheduled. My consultation was scheduled for the next day and I received my medication two days later. They offer a wide range of delivery options if you want your medication sooner.

I do wish they would accept credit cards rather than COD only, but that is minor. The only delay I experienced was on my first refill: they were in the process of changing pharmacies. On the plus side, once the changeover was made, they over-nighted my medication at no additional cost.

Customer service is via email with very quick responses.

Hi Guys! I'm new....this is my first-ever post! But what I have to say is 'that' important. I, like many of you, fell victim to lost refills and an OCS/Pharm that went bye-bye recently! I was left "hanging". So, I set about to find a replacement. I decided on 80 Dollar Consults for a number of reasons, so I filled in their form and faxed my records/ID to them.

I've used various OCS over the past several years and NEVER had my records (or condition) even questioned, much less turned down! So you can imagine my SHOCK when I was scheduled a consult with 80 Dollar and as I was waiting for the phone to ring, I received an email stating that the doctor said, "the condition does not warrant treatment..." WHAT? I was incredulous!

As I said, I've used many OCS off and on for years now and never once had a problem! I have also used local physicians, in between, as well! NO ONE has ever told me my condition didn't warrant treatment!

Now, Paul was SUPER nice to communicate with. He responded in a timely fashion and was always helpful and courteous. So I have no issue with him at all!!! Super nice guy!

However, I think they either need to send their "lady doctor" back to med school or replace her altogether! How they even stay in business is beyond me!

Thankfully, I found another service willing to help me. I do not recommend this OCS to ANYone!

It's nice to be part of this board. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest! Hope everyone of you nice folks has a great holiday weekend!

Hi Mary,

Welcome to the DB board. This is an awesome place. What a bummer they turned you down. Hope you don't mind my asking, but do you have an MRI or CT scan in your records. Seems they must have one of those two things before they prescribe these days?

Thanks for your input.

Thanks much for the nice welcome, Bonks!
It's nice to be here with you guys! :-)

To answer your question:
YES! I sent copies of CT Scans done over the past 5 yrs....to show a 'chronic' condition.....along with records from the last year. I also sent my doctor's Progress Notes and other medical records on his practice's letterhead!

So my records were very thorough. As I said in my earlier post, no doctor or PA has EVER questioned them OR my condition! That's why this caught me so "off-guard".....Had anyone even mentioned my records or my condition, I might have been somewhat prepared for a 'possible' rejection. You know? But I've used OCS for many years...finding a new one when one closed....like many others....and have NEVER even been 'asked' to clarify anything!

I dunno! But I certainly cannot recommend this OCS!

Thanks again for the nice welcome!

M.

This is my first post, though I have been reading with interest for quite some time! I just used $80 consults after Accurate MD screwed me over.

I have been very pleased. The consult fee is great. There was some initial trouble with my records. I guess when you fax them, they turn into a computer document on their end. They couldn't open it and I had to refax the records. Got a consult set up in the morning, had it that afternoon and the order was processed and shipped the same day.

Order came right on time this morning- I have been real happy. The only thing I don't like is the doctor would only prescribe 90 when I am used to 120 and they only gave 2 refills when I am used to getting 3.

I will use them again- but if Accurate MD returns to their standard, I will go back. Only $5 more for the consult plus 3 refills.

I just wanted those of you who have had a bad experience with 80dollarconsults.com, especially if it was in the past month or so, to give them a second chance if you're looking for an online pharmacy. I was using 1stmeds ever since norcoworldwide dropped off the map and while their service was generally good their prices are outrageous. Speaking of prices DB needs to check their current price list. It has changed radically upward which is why I went looking elsewhere. 80dollarconsults really stunk it up the first time I ordered and the records they request are rigid, but if you can deal with that part, they have resolved all of the problems they have been having since changing pharmacies and they are now up and running very smoothly. I did have to Notify them about their site still offering c.c. payments which they don't and it says to refill at the member site which doesn't exist,(you have to order by email)but aside from the minor glitches they are definitely back in the game and playing very well. If you're wondering, I am not in any way affiliated with them. They just did me right and then some and I felt I owed them a good review.

I, like someone above posted, have great records, been using op's for 8 (eight) years. I fax my records in, they say they never got them, i fax them again, after 3 days I finally get a consult. At the time of the consult I get an e-mail saying a physical was needed(not) prior to 2006. Well, I had exams from 2007 and 2006 in my 8 page fax, all with sciatica, bulging discs, chronic pain etc. as the diagnosis. I e-mail (you can't call them--it enhances their superior cust. service) ---then they send me another e-mail saying the dr. needs documentation stating I need this medication--this is also in the records I faxed them. I e-mailed back and asked what did they need a physical or documentation of my condition and that I had documentation of lortab/percocet etc. etc. being prescribed--to please clarify what they needed, I offered to e-mail all pages again with further proof of medical need/physicals---All I got from them was "please don't, we already have that. Anyway, I have moved on, all other OCS will/have in the past accepted/never questioned my need for medication.------------PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOU'RE TIME WITH THESE PEOPLE, YOU CANNOT EVEN CALL THEM IF NEEDED--YOD(USED THEN IN 2003-2005)CURRENTLY HAS BETTER CS THAN THESE PEOPLE

I tried 80 after another OP left me flat. They accepted my records and I got a consult within hours. The problem I am having is they did not send out the meds.They sent me three e-mails to let me know what was going on, but since my consult I have seen nothing. I am now 3 days since my consult and nothing. I did not get a tracking number and their web site says order has not been filled. It really puts you in a bind when your order is COD if they don't tell you when it's coming. Plus, you can only contact them via e-mail. To be fair to them the jury is still out. My order may be on the way, but I have no way of knowing. I guess my best bet is to have the money order just in case. But I have seen a lot of people say that if they don't send you a tracking number, it's because their is nothing to track. Approach with caution.

I ordered my first refill from them on Monday. It was filled yesterday, got my tracking # and will be delivered today. On my initial order, the script was filled and shipped the same day. A one day delay on the refill, but that's OK. So far, I think their service is great, from prices to customer service.

I am happy to say that I was wrong. This was about as good as it gets these days. Only a slight glitch because they did not e-mail me a tracking number, but It did take less than 72 hours from start to finish. I'm glad I said the jury is still out in my last post. My impression is that these guys are really trying, but they have been swamped with new customers lately. It would be nice to be able to call customer service, but other than that this was a positive experience.

so you got your meds ontime, just no tracking#?
I'm concerned because it has been 2 days since my consult and I was told I'd have a tracking# by 7pm and never got one, I did get a new COD total for Sat delivery, but I'm afraid it won't be coming again and then I won't be here to get it after that.....anyone else get meds ontime, but no tracking#?
thanks

Website says overnight prescription sent........wrong! Had I known it would take 2-3 days for a prescription (will be longer now because of holiday) I would have said forget it and that's exactly what I am doing. They charge just as much as everyone else in the long run they make you get asprin for an additional $6 telling you it's required along with pain meds??? I'm canceling this order and looking elsewhere.

Almost all of the OCS websites say 24-48hrs.

I know it's frustrating my friend, but to be honest.......3-4 days is about as good as it gets right now. I think I've read about 2 places right now that are still able to go next day.

Everywhere else right now is a mess! Anywhere from 3 days......to 3 weeks or longer!

Just saying....if you can manage a 3-4 day delay, I'd stick it out. The grass really isn't any greener if you go elsewhere.....at least right now.

As of the 8th you stated you were 3 days past your consult then two days later on the 10th you said the whole thing took less than 72 hrs? I just had consult with them this morning and never knew of this delay until I emailed and it said they're behind 2-3 days.

Not true my friend.

Up until recently, overnight was certainly common place for several places. It's not like I just fell into this place man.

Read up. 1stopmeds was an overnight shop. There's all kinds of feedback about how great they "were". Now they're not shipping AT ALL!

Read up on 1stPriority. Another GREAT place currently dealing with delays.

Just offering some friendly advice. You certainly have the option of taking it or not. Good luck in your search.
