Review titled Excellent Service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by L M Tanner - Posted on 16 December 2023
Recently moved to new area and my first order was sent to the wrong provider by my new GP. Phoned Fittleworth asking them to help sort it out. The response by the person who answered my call was amazing - they contacted my GP found out it was admin error - Fittleworth phoned me several times to keep me informed and made sure my GP understood exactly what went wrong. I felt reassured by Fittleworths proactive approach and my items have been reordered.

Review titled Friendly, patient helpful service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Elizabeth Wilson - Posted on 03 November 2023
On my husband 's behalf I have used this service for a few months now. It was my first experience and was pleasantly surprised at the efficient helpful service I received. Members of staff went out of their way to make the process easy to navigate. I have every confidence in the knowledge of the staff and the quality of the products. The promptness of time of order to delivery is excellent. It is extremely useful to be able to speak to someone and very much appreciated.Thank you.

Review titled no supplies
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Carol Joyce Howard - Posted on 28 December 2023
Fittleworths delivered my stoma supplies the day after I returned home from hospital in Oct. Very good company I thought. The following months supplies didn't arrive when expected and were only delivered after much discussion on the phone. When it finally arrived it was a few boxes short from the previous order. The December ones didn't come at all. They kept telling me my GP hadn't sent a prescription. My GP said they had!! They kept putting delivery off until 22nd Dec. When it didn't arrive on that date I was frantic. I phoned them & after much persuasion they agreed to send me a portion of my order. I got one box of bags to last me through Christmas. I was promised more of the order on Dec 27th but now I get an email saying they aren't coming till Jan 10th. Once more the reason given was that my GP hadn't sent a prescription. My GP says they have! Should an 80 year old woman have all this hassle? I have bought some bags from Amazon. I couldn't see what else I could do. I am hoping my stoma nurse will find me a different supplier. I just can't be doing with the bother of Fittleworths.

Review titled Exemplary customer service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by D Leslie - Posted on 27 October 2023
A minor misunderstanding with my GP practice regarding my regular prescription resulted in an essential item being omitted from my quarterly medical supplies. Fittleworth staff (as they always have when occasionally necessary over the past 15 years) went the extra mile to ensure that the omission was remedied, by liaising proactively with my GP practice. Thanks to the efforts of both Fittleworth and GP staff, the missing item was delivered promptly.

Review titled Service seems to have just tailed off
Rated 2 stars out of 5

It all started off fine. The first two batches of supplies for a month each delivered as expected. Then nothing for the third month. Contacted them as running low and was told they weren't expecting to automatically send me supplies each month. I then set it up, with email confirmation, that I would get a call around a certain day of each month to place order . That date for this month is now well passed. I am not impressed.

Having rung the Bedford,Luton & MK prescription service,asking for an early order as I was going on holiday, I was told it could not be done. After speaking to one of your colleagues ,who was very polite and understanding,it was all arranged for me very efficiently. I want to thank your operative for her kindness.Whenever I have rung your company ,I have always received the best service and respect. Congratulations Fittleworth, on giving such a wonderful service!

Review titled Unfit for purpose
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Simon Calgie - Posted on 10 September 2023
I recently had a tracheostomy and have to order regular supplies from Fittleworth to take care of it. I have now placed two orders and both times the incredibly slow delivery times have meant me worrying about running out of items. My latest order was placed on 17.8.23 and won't be delivered until 20.9.23. How on Earth is this system meant to work - it doesn't!

Review titled Robotic customer service
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Sharon Bailey - Posted on 22 August 2023
If you like someone just repeating the same thing to you so you give up ring Fittleworth! They sent the wrong order in July, I called and told them. Was advised to take the product to a pharmacy or throw away. The GP is then being asked for a prescription for this product over a month later..I called as I didn't want them sending the wrong product again. Just kept being told the prescription is for the order already sent over a month ago. I explained that this was their mistake and I called for them to collect it. The GP is now confused and has it on my dad's repeat prescription. It doesn't take much for them to prescribe wrong meds/products. I kept asking who had asked for this product to be sent and if it was their mistake why are they charging the NHS/dads GP for it? The continous reply I kept getting was its an outstanding order that was sent so we need a prescription! If no one asked for it then its your problem not the NHS/dads GP!

Review titled Declining service standards
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Tony - Posted on 18 August 2023
From February 2020 until about July 2023 Fittleworth have been totally reliable especially through Covid. Since early July 2023 we've had to call again and again to find out where the order is. Promises are made only to be shown as completely false. As we had only 8 bags remaining it becomes very worrying and we were looking at buying our own and trying to get the supplier changed. After calling everyday this week a delivery came! Will this level of service continue? Only time will tell but its unlikely we'll remain as customers.
