In-human service

Went to the Dr on the 12/03/2019 and Pharmacy Direct confirmed receipt of my new prescription for my meds on the 15/03/2019. On the 20/03/2019 I received a call informing me that I will get my meds only on the 25/03 because they are not delivering fridge meds on Friday, good enough. Yesterday, 25/03 I called them to confirm my delivery and the gentleman called Paul said his supervisor would come back to me to confirm my delivery and the next thing I got an sms confirming my delivery for yesterday but no delivery received. Last week when I spoke to Zanele I explained that I am out of medication and I am not feeling well and her supervisor promised to do her best but no one came back to me as well. For an organisation providing health service I am expecting humanity, compassion and plan B to assist stranded patient who for some reasons are in need of their chronic meds urgently. Jo, I am so shocked by the service I got from this company.
