Just this really. I want to go with Simple pharmacy I think. Are there any bad experiences I should be aware off?

Haven’t used them myself but haven’t seen anything on here negative about them. The price with the 15% first order discount looks ok too, so I can’t see any reason not to use them. You can always swap to somewhere else for your next order.

just wondered. Does the price go up with every dose?

I use simple online pharmacy, I’ve found them great so far. if you email them before ordering with proof of a cheaper supplier they will send you a code to price match the pen. You must email before ordering though

You only get the new customer discount, which is the biggest discount, once per pharmacy. After that, if you stay with the same pharmacy, you are looking at the smaller returning customer discounts, or just the actual list price.

Most pharmacies do the 2.5mg and 5mg at the same, or very similar, price. Then there's a step up to 7.5mg which is often the same price as the 10mg, and then a further step up to the 12.5 and 15mg doses which are the most expensive.

Some pharmacies do price matching, some have rules about who they price match to and what counts for price matching, which can help reduce the costs.

As an example in with Oushk on 15mg and it's £189 a month

Pretty much so, yes. You can see in the table I linked to.

Shemed is the same price - £159 - each month. Haven't read any reviews of them on here though.

There are a couple of long running threads on here about Shemed. It's important that people understand the model that Shemed operate, it's a subscription model and they do a lot more monitoring than other providers. They aren't just a pharmacy where you can order different medications as well as weight loss injections.

You have to do a blood test first, complete an onboarding video call, and wait until the blood test results before the medication is sent out. Then, you do weekly check ins and when you want to request the next pen, they will review your weight loss and decide on the dose level that they send out to you and it might not be the dose level that you hoped for or think you should have. It's all in their Terms and Conditions.

I went with Simple online. Got a discount code. Waiting on my request to be approved.

I haven’t used that pharmacy but what I will say is as well as looking at price, also look at trustpilot reviews. Some pharmacies (cheaper and more expensive ones) take ages to approve, make you jump through hoops etc
Look for the cheapest possible but that have good reviews for fast delivery and good service.
I’ve used two pharmacies so far who aren’t the cheapest but are in the competitive price range and they’ve both reviewed my application the same day and I’ve had the pen the next day. My friend uses a provider who aren’t even the cheapest and she sometimes waits 1-2 weeks for her pen.

I used Simple for my first 6 months but when the price went up I had to stop. I've just rebought again through Voy as they were the only place I didn't have to have a video call! They accepted with just my photos. And had £100 off through a referral which I could always send to you. They accepted within 24 hours and my BMI is 27.7 ish.
