BP Customer service is AWFUL!



Recommended Posts

I purchased 6 of the same item this week. I received an email telling me they only had 4 not 6 so I said fine send me tge 4 and refund the difference. I then received only 2 and emailed them back to hear oh sorry we only had 2. I told them I felt that with the repeated mistakes they should refund the money for the missing 2 and send me another flavore at no charge. In my next email reply I wasn't even given the option to just choose the other flavor for the money I already paid, nope they just refunded my money. I have also found that the majority of the products here are available elsewhere cheaper especially on Amazon prime. I will never buy another item from BP and I won't renew my subscription box either. Horrible customer service seriously BP do better!!

When it comes to bariatric products I was advised in a group meeting to shop around. One person said if you go into a Vitamin shop and said that you had bariatric surgery and needed Vitamins you'd end up with $200 worth of stuff. She asked her nutritionist what was the best stuff to get and was directed to costco (or any other similar store) where she bought Costco Multi Vitamins, calcium citrate (not carbonate), B12 pills and was good to go. We don't need to spend huge amounts on specialty stores when comparable cheaper products are widely available.

I've never purchased a 'bariatric' product in my life. 'Bariatric' is never on the label as it adds cost but no benefit.

The few supplements I use I just buy the bog-standard version from, usually, Walgreens when I am picking up prescriptions. I could probably pay less at Amazon, but it's usually a matter of thinking of it because I see it.

Just my ever so humble opinion. ;)

Same. Between Wal-Mart and Amazon I got everything I needed at a fraction of the cost, with emphasis on the former when it comes to foods, Protein, and supplements.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
