Moving on from Chequp, but where?

So, not another ‘where/how’ to move query, well, I guess it is.

But I’ve been with Chequp since December and they’ve been fine. However, they’ve introduced a shipping charge of £3.99, which appeared to come out of the blue.

Now I have found my feet with M, I’m looking to change supplier - somewhat out of principle too, in response to the shipping charge.

I’ve researched the spreadsheet shared here a few times, by sorry, forgot who. And I’ve reviewed Monj.co.uk

I’m close to being at maintenance dose. And am concerned that my current weight/BMI, which is still ‘orange’ according to the NHS, might make changing tricky, should I be concerned, or does money talk?

I’m looking for a reliable, valuable supplier. Who does not inform GP. I’m leaning towards Medino.

Should I consider anyone else?

Did you notice on monj there is a section with pharmacies that do maintenance. Medino isn't on it (doesn't mean they don't do it, I assume you have checked elsewhere that they do?)

The Family Chemist will take you on if your BMI is over 26. They provide a letter to give to your GP. They charge shipping but are very upfront about it, I can't fault them, been with them since January, was previously with a main pharmacy who were charging a fortune!

I've switched to Pharmulous, the service has been exceptionally fast, good prices and a letter to share with the GP if required. My BMI was under 30 when I switched, I sent a photo of my most recent box as evidence I was prescribed, plus the normal weight/ photo evidence (no video).

I started with Chequp too, left after about 6 months when they messed up an order, weren't as proactively helpful as they had been before and seemed to have a real turnover of staff (the names I knew on customer service vanished, my nutritionist left, etc.)
I left and went to Ashcroft who were, at that time, one of the cheapest although they are now pretty mid-range, they don't have a maintenance policy but have told me they would deal with each patient as an individual. Oushk seem to be highly rated, also heard good things about Cloud Pharmacy
