Hims for Negative User Reviews

Horrible company. Miserable customer service experience and lacking ethics.I was a customer for years and really liked the products after trying most. Basic features have been removed. Control over what you receive and when has been systematically removed over time in a clearly overt effort to boost profit. Everything is structured to keep you subscribed and make it a pain to cancel, then burn you on what you’re owed once you cancel. Basic customer service is a completely miserable experience. Literally one of the worst I’ve ever gone through and it’s 2023. They won’t refund or change anything no matter how soon you try after an order is “placed”. They won’t provide itemized receipts or even any coherent receipt that says anything about what you’re paying for. They won’t allow you to remove all cards from your account. The accounts get cancelled as a “service” so any prepaid services you have prepaid for and not yet received are just theft by this company. No partial refund for unused services and no fulfillment of prepaid services up to the point of the end of the prepaid time period. All around a bad company that’s clearly ethically devoid and lost us as long term customers..Version: 3.09.0

Would highly advise against using this serviceI tried to use this app when experiencing some anxiety. Did the online exam and after three weeks I reached out to customer service because I hadn’t heard anything back. Next thing I heard was that I needed to redo the exam because it was expired. Then the program wouldn’t sign in after I redid the exam. Which I was told is some bug they’re trying to work out. You can easily schedule a visit to real doctor in the time it takes this place to respond..Version: 2.16.0

Completely uselessAbsolutely useless unless you want medication to become suicidal, had me waiting 5 days during a benzo withdrawal which had me hospitalized, took 5 days for them to tell me they can’t prescribe useful medication, only the ones with severe side effects, I’ve been on alprazolam since I was 13, I take my meds as prescribed, yet the doctor reached out to me finally, had zero sympathy and treated me like a junkie if I could give 0 stars you’d be in the negatives.Version: 2.25.0

They will not delete your accountTried to use and was denied so I naturally wanted to delete my account. Well the only way to do that is to email them and after months of waiting for an email saying they will not delete it. I emailed back asking why and have not received a response In months. Save your time and just see a doctor. Edit: now the company updates their website and sends the same response to every negative review instead of actually reading why people had bad experiences and trying to solve them. It has been two years and I still have not gotten a response to why they refuse to delete my account, don’t waste your time..Version: 2.0.1

Can’t even make appointments for anythingIt’s been over two weeks of waiting to make an appointment to talk with a physician and absolutely none have been available. For one day, there were some slots for the end of September, but there were only 4 and they were all during work hours. This service is absolutely unusable if you don’t have anyone available. Heck. I waited on live customer service for 20 minutes as number 1 in queue without being helped. Your entire service is absolutely useless if you can’t allow time slots to make appointments. It’s been almost 3 weeks for me waiting on a time, and there’s nothing available. I will never recommend this to anyone at all.Version: 2.36.0

Shady businessNot only is the medicine not effective for me but the worst part is that there is no way to cancel future subscriptions. They say there is but when you try to cancel there is no option, only to snooze. Plus there is notification that they have intentions of shipping until it’s too late and they take another $239 from your checking for a product you won’t even use. Very shady. Should have straightforward cancel button but this is done deliberately so don’t be fooled.Version: 2.50.1

This app is a SCAMThey lock you into a subscription you don’t even know you’re signing up for by hiding the language in the middle of paragraphs long disclosures. Then 6 months later without any warning whatsoever you get a shipping notification for more product and are hit with another charge for hundreds of dollars. Again, there’s NO WARNING this is about to ship/be charged/etc. Other subscription services I’ve been a part of have had the moral fortitude to actually warn you before another payment is about to be due. To not do this is morally bankrupt, especially when you’re talking about a non-refundable charges of hundreds of dollars. Customer support is absolutely useless, it’s clear this is part of their business model because they are quick to tell you there are no returns and no refunds. The product had just shipped that very day and it was already too late to cancel, return, or get a refund. Save your money and shop elsewhere, this place is a SCAM..Version: 3.04.0

DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING!!!I am warning anybody and everybody. Do not start anything on HIMS. You cannot get out of your purchases or subscriptions. You can only pause them. Super hard to delete your account and customer service is horrible. Had a guy named “NOAH” helping me out and because I didn’t responde in 5 minutes he told me he was leaving the chat because it had been a while since I responded. They had me waiting 24hrs for a response or any help. I had a phone call I needed to answer for work and instead was told “take care and wish you the best” after being told I was taking a while to reply. Didn’t realize 5mins was an inconvenience as I was given 24hrs. I’ve been trying to cancel my subscription and my account and they’re dodging me. Going to have to leave a comment and review on BBB. They added more stress in the past 3 days and I was supposed to be getting treatment for it. Not helpful and horrible that you can’t cancel either or..Version: 2.25.0

TerribleWorst app in the world. They sign you up for auto subscription without your knowledge, make it almost impossible for you to cancel, and then when you finally figure out how to cancel and spend 30-45 minutes doing so they will still charge you and say you never canceled. You have to open up a live chat to cancel but you can’t do anything else while you’re doing so because if you go to a different app or tab it will back you out of the chat and you have to start all over again and rejoin the queue. They’re gonna make someone lose their license..Version: 3.11.0

Credit card required, no cancellation optionI wanted to try out Hims to get a fast convenient refill option. It was expensive and didn’t work for me since I found a MUCH cheaper option for the same thing. They take your credit card and start a monthly prescription that is charged and sent monthly. You can pause this but then you have to remember to go in and change it regularly or it will automatically send and charge you. The medication I chose is “as needed” so I don’t need it on a regular schedule. I need it when I am ready for it and will request it. I tried to cancel my account but the instructions to do so on the website and the app are false. I cannot cancel myself. I have emailed customer service and am waiting to hear back. I hate having my credit card held ransom by companies..Version: 3.09.0

Absolute waste of timeUpdate because the reply ticked me off more. “medical reactions” while the real doctor that i actually believe knows what they’re doing flat out approves and has now put me on the exact medications i needed (that you offer) after confirming there would be no reaction expected other than what is possible from known side effects. stop making excuse and just admit y’all keep screwing up. by far the worst experience i have ever had. i let them know i use thc once daily and was told i was a heavy user and that was the cause of my mental illness. if these are in fact real doctors they need to do some research. and learn tableside manners. i have many screen shots over the 72 hours it took to even convince someone to review my request. this is ridiculous and an absolute waste of energy and phone storage.Version: 2.16.0

Terrible AppFace ID does not work. Changed password successfully via email reset and website. New password does not work for the app. It’s 2 days prior to my auto-refill payment date? Coincidence? I actually wanted to order a refill sooner so the jokes on you, Hims. But yeah, your mobile app is basically worthless at best, and at worst this is a premeditated attempt to prevent people from cancelling auto-payment. I ordered more on the website which I can sign into. Thanks..Version: 3.09.0

Buyer bewareThey make it extremely difficult to cancel once you have a prescription. The instructions to cancel in their help center don’t work and they make you wait for providers to reach out to be able to cancel. They’ll tell you this is for safety so they can provide tapering instructions, but they’ll let you delay shipments whenever you want without provider approval. They don’t take insurance and charge full price so this should be a last ditch effort to use their prescription services..Version: 2.50.1

Absolute scamMedication is way over priced, they’ll send out lexapro or etc but can’t send the required medication to combat the symptoms that the medication will cause to increase meaning you need to go to a doctor for that. Then charge you randomly saying they charge seven days before your subject to run out. Well I paid on the 1st recieved my medicine on the 6th and got charged again on the 23rd the math doesn’t work it’s a 30 day supply and now they refuse to refund me although my new order hasn’t shipped and I canceled on the 23rd as soon as I saw the charge pop up in my notifications. And their response is you can safely dispose of the medication by reading said link in the email, this is an absolute scam.Version: 3.04.0

Sign in needed every time I open the app!This is one of the most aggravating applications I have on my iPhone. Every single time I launch the app it requires a fresh sign and it doesn’t save any sign in information even though it’s in my keychain. I’m tech savvy as heck and this is ridiculous. Other than this issue support is incredible within the app and I’ve really been impressed by how thorough and easy it is to access assistance once I sign in..Version: 2.0.2

Long delays and no supportAfter over a week of wait my order has still not been fulfilled. I’ve heard nothing from Hims about it. I tried to contact support. The concierge in the app doesn’t reply, the phone nr rings for minutes before telling me to call later and my email was answered with a message that said it’d take up to 7 days to get a reply!!! Not sure what to do next other than advice everyone to avoid this company. Low inventory happens to most companies from time to time. However, hiding it and letting people still order is criminal!.Version: 2.29.0

Subscription scamThey use predatory behavior to ensure that they get their money for your subscription regardless of whether you need it or were told by their doctor to stop. They send no notifications when you’re order is going to ship and only afterward and then tell you there is nothing they can do because it “shipped”. Even if it’s sitting in their warehouse. Be very careful as if you are told to stop using the product due to side effects from a doctor on the platform, they don’t do anything to your subscription and will just ship and charge you for it..Version: 3.09.0

Warning! Delays in shippingI’ve been using hims for topical finasteride and minoxidil for 6 months, I’m starting to see progress and improvement. But now, their pharmacy is delayed and I’ll be without the medication for over a week, jeopardizing the results completely. What’s worse, you cannot get topical finasteride from a local pharmacy and the concierge does nothing to help solve the problem except offer future discounts. Really frustrating..Version: 2.31.0

Unhelpful staffI have been trying to get a provider to reach out to me about getting my medicine quicker, 5 people have told me a provider would reach out to me but hasn’t, after Ive been complaining about withdrawals, them not even fulfilling my medicine to ship out over a 5 business day period of me asking for help shows they don’t care about customers this led to me having to go to ER for violent withdrawal symptoms the staff thinks that if they use kind and professional words it makes them seem like a better company but you have to actually listen and problem solve not just be understanding low rating from me.Version: 2.29.0

Behind the timesHims & Hers products are okay at best, but the shipping time is absolutely behind every other company on the planet. You can very easily have something shipped from across the world trekked through tropical rain forests, then canoed the Nile river, loaded onto Santa Maria and unicycled to your house. Faster than what these folks can get you a simple subscription that they have no problem with charging you for 2-4 weeks before you get it. I know ‘Roman’ 2-day airs their stuff. Maybe they can steal their logistics coordinator because this one isn’t very up with modern times..Version: 2.11.0

Over charged twiceI won’t be using hims anymore after my second bad experience with them. Over charged twice. I canceled my subscription with them after the first time, then signed up again a year later. The second charge was more than what they said, by a lot! I canceled again after this last experience and won’t be returning to do business with them ever again. I will say though, the first time they refunded about half my money after being charged for a whole year at once. The second time they refunded my money that day. I do appreciate that..Version: 2.16.0

Horrible ServiceMost bizarre interaction with a doctor I’ve ever had. It’s clear these people don’t know what they’re doing. I came to Hims for ease of use and price, but I’d already been assessed, diagnosed, and treated by several doctors in the past. I filled out the Hims assessment, which is sparse and leaves no room to explain anything, and waited for the result. They got back to me and told me that they could not see me. No explanation given. Surprised, I responded with my history, thinking that since their assessment does such a poor job providing the necessary information for a doctor to make a decision, they’d see my response and change their minds. The doctor responded by saying that because I had taken a particular medication in the past, they couldn’t see me. Here’s the problem: I was prescribed it 20 years ago for reasons other than the reasons it is usually prescribed, only took it for a few months, and then stopped taking it. Any other doctor would have asked all of these questions to get a full history. Instead, Hims just denied me service without getting my history and without any consultation. Bizarre. I’ve never felt so unheard by a medical professional. Stay away. These people don’t know what they’re doing..Version: 2.36.0
