No Service at All

Every month I wait for my chronic medication to be sent from Clicks Direct Medicines Johannesburg to Ladysmith. Each month I don't receive my medication and I run out - chronic medication should not run out. My sister, Loraine phones every single month for me as reception on the farm where i live is bad and each month the *********** call centre staff who don't care about the customers at all promise that it will be dispatched the next day. It never is. The staff at clicks direct medicines do not care about your business. My medical aid broker does not help me in any way and tells me there is nothing she can do about it. Please help or find a new service provider. Medical Membership Number: ********** 2743. Ronald McMurray ********** 944.

You may need 5 working days to respond but I demand an answer as to why you have allowed a patient to run out of their chronic medication because you are *********** and incapable of anything! If anything happens to this person and it is because of your negligence you can bet your bottom dollar that legal steps will be taken!!!!!
