    OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!! went to see "witch" doctor at the surgery. Doc wrote down 2 prescription for me. When to ASDA shopping ( even I am poorly I can still shop):D handed my prescription to the counter - me got a shock of my life!!!!

    Counter : Do you have to pay for your prescription?
    Me : Yes, unfortunately I have to.
    Counter : That will be £14.40 please.
    Me : What!!! The last time I paid was only £5.80:D. And that is for any amount of
    items on the prescription note.
    Counter : Not anymore I am afraid. Each item now cost £7.20. I can give you the eyedrop cheaper over the counter. That will cost you £12.80 in total please.
    Me : £12.80:eek: guess I have to pay then:o.

    No wonder, nobody go & see Doc anymore. Next time I shall be my own doctor & prescribe my own medics! with moc.
    RIP my dear dear parent : Mum aged 62 (17/5/1990) & Dad aged 89 (23/1/2012)

    just wondering if it is kosher as it was removed the first time pretty quickly...

    If it is kosher then the poor bloke will be inundated with requests :rotfl:

    Sis, if you need medicines 'fraid you just have to pay up as you shouldn't mess around with your health. We need you fighting fit on here to find us the best offers etc so you'll just have to find some more mocs elsewhere to help pay for your
    medicines:D:D

    I had the same problem. If you click on the link within the email it doesn't work but if you reply to the first email it does... The strange thing is - i've stared at the 2 email addresses and they look the same??!! :think:

    Wrong one [EMAIL="admin@consumersomplaintsforum.co.uk"]admin@consumersomplaintsforum.co.uk[/EMAIL]

    Correct one [EMAIL="admin@consumercomplaintsforum.co.uk"]admin@consumercomplaintsforum.co.uk[/EMAIL]

    But as TBN says may not be kosher......Too late for me cos I fell for it......Possibly live and learn on this one!
    :p:p Have a good [STRIKE]Tesc[/STRIKE][STRIKE]Asd[/STRIKE]WHO? day - Err....I still wish Mozzies had a better website even though they are now on MyS! :p:p :rotfl:;)

    Don't forget if you have to get scrip's regularly that a 'pre-pay' works out a lot cheaper....Roughly, more than 4 scrip's in 3 months = Cheaper with 'pre-pay' (13 in 12 month's) :beer:

    Think yourself lucky as drugs cost a fortune over here! My Mom has one that she has to take 1 tablet/month and it is $100 just for that 1 tablet! My little Sis has to take something that is $1,500/month!!!:eek::eek::eek: That is one thing I will miss about England.;) Hope you feel better soon!!:A
