Lots of very useful discussions going on on the old thread, so I thought I would continue it!

I ordered a 10mg pen last Thursday and haven’t heard a peep from them since the confirmation email. I’m an existing customer. Getting a bit worried about it now.

I ordered from Medicine Marketplace on Thursday too. I completed the photos they needed on Sunday evening and not heard anything since. I won’t be in for a few days now for delivery so hoping it comes next week now.

@LifeOfAShowGirl Yes I had a convocation about that on another thread, the downside of running a personality based marketing campaign.
Hopefully she has MH support and guidance, I’m always amazed at how some people seem to be happy showing their whole life on SM to back up a business, I often wonder how it makes their children feel.

It’s insane.

I can personally vouch for her being a bloody lovely person - she did my weight verification call a few months ago because the person I was booked with cancelled on me. I think she looks after their WhatsApp. She was so kind to me, complimented my outfit and bathroom 🤣 but it must be a huge task.

@LifeOfAShowGirl what you mean Hira isn’t my friend and personally ensuring my massive order, with extra pink measuring tape freebie isn’t late!!!
This whole price issue really shows how many people think they are special, more deserving, more entitled, we’re not really all in this together.

Of course she isn't she is way too busy doing my 3 separate orders that have been delayed. Driving up the M74 right now (with Bilal in the back seat with a thermometer swapping out fresh ice packs to keep it at the perfect temperature) to hand deliver them - that's why they don't all have tracking numbers yet even though they were due yesterday.

I might need to get some pink bunting out for her.

I’m guessing it’s because they’ve run out of stock and are stalling until it comes in. Who knows?! It’s definitely a waiting game at the moment but it sounds like you’re a step closer to getting your next pen than me. Hopefully yours will arrive soon.

I ordered Friday from MMP, email asking for pictures etc on Saturday that I did straight away and then nothing since.

I was guessing they’re delaying until they’ve got stock to send. Which is fine, I’m not desperate but I wish they’d say so.

I ordered a pen last Thursday as well and just got notification yesterday that it had been approved (existing customer) usually that means it will turn up the next day but nothing has arrived as yet.

JasonTindallsTan · 20/08/2025 18:18

Just realised they said it had been dispatched. Royal Mail say they are still waiting for it when you follow the link with the tracking number…

Mounjarogirl25 · 20/08/2025 18:20

I ordered a 7.5 last Thursday, they said it was despatched on Monday but nothing since then, Royal Mail tracking hasn't been updated either so I don't think they have actually posted it, just attached a tracking ref. I am away from next Wed so a bit worried

Itscoldouthere · 20/08/2025 18:24

@WeAllHaveWings thats why she’s not delivered mine today, as I’m down south, maybe she’ll get to me for breakfast and bring me pink donuts and some Fuel powder for free 🤣
Having said that my order is due today and no word from DPD, so I doubt it’s coming today, luckily this was just my regular order I placed before all this price issue and I always have an extra pen in the fridge, so that helps to not feel the pressure about delivery, I certainly won’t be contacting them yet.

Itscoldouthere · 20/08/2025 18:33

@LifeOfAShowGirl Yes I had a call with her in January when I switched to them, she was so lovely, however at that point I knew nothing about the fan/worship side of the business, I find it extremely fascinating, interesting, creepy, I rather enjoy watching FB spats blow up (I must have too much time on my hands 😉) if I were her I’d be completely freaked by the level of weird attention she gets.

I ordered a 7.5mg last Thursday as well. They have taken the money from my bank account but I haven't heard a thing.
Have a feeling they are going to cancel

Just got my notification from Royal Mail re my MMP order and it’s being delivered tomorrow. I also ordered with your medical (linked on here) but that hasn’t been approved yet.

I’ve just had shipped notification emails for 2 out of my 3 orders. So looks like they decided against driving up my way! Dh is outside putting the bunting away.

No idea what’s happening with the 3rd one which still says approved and yesterday’s date for delivery, no tracking number. Will maybe email tomorrow if it isn’t included with one of the others, but doubt they’ll get to it anytime soon.

Shantayyoustaysashayaway · 20/08/2025 23:40

Hi. I know my query isn't to do with the price hikes but wondered if someone could answer a question for me. I went on mj but only lasted 3 weeks as for 2 consecutive days I would have excruciating pain on my right upper abdomen, the same pain I had when I had gallstones 20 years ago (& had my gallbladder removed.)
Has anyone had this issue but have been ok on wegovy? I was gutted when I had to stop the mj but couldn't take the risk of getting pancreatitis as my mum had it in 2012 & developed sepsis & nearly died 4 times & apparently it could be heritary. Would wegovy give me exactly the same side effects? (On those 2 days would also get chronic diarrhoea & nausea)

Pumpkinforever · 21/08/2025 00:28

Latest from Oushk (impacts all pharmacies)

unfortunately, we’ve been unable to secure any further stock of Mounjaro today, except for the 2.5mg strength. We have now been officially informed that all pharmacies have been allocated strict quotas for each strength of Mounjaro. Once these quotas are met, we will not be able to reorder that particular strength until 1st September, when the new pricing from Eli Lilly comes into effect.

Corrag · 21/08/2025 00:29

I don't think anyone here can answer that question @Shantayyoustaysashayaway, probably best to ask your GP for advice.

Ezzalouxoxo · 21/08/2025 00:49

Does anyone else use price comparison sites rather than dig through Facebook for codes?

I got so sick of codes that didn’t work so looked online and found a good comparison site, it even says when stuff is out of stock and compares prices and discounts. I’ve used monj and igovy the most as I can’t use technology to save my life and they were the easiest with direct links.

just feel a bit fed up at all the price rises so hopefully this will help someone save a few minutes (or should I say hours) trolling through pages and pages of faff on Facebook.

Itscoldouthere · 21/08/2025 07:11

@WeAllHaveWings good job you have had your shipped email for 2 pens, I currently wouldn’t hold out much hope for your 3rd coming yet having seen the latest stock update message 😳
The shit has hit the fan as it looks like orders may not be able to be fulfilled.
My order didn’t turn up yesterday but DPD say it’s on its way to local office so it’s out there, hopefully will come today.

LifeOfAShowGirl · 21/08/2025 07:18

Starting to get worried about my Oushk order. Nothing from them confirming it’s been approved, due for delivery Saturday and they don’t have any stock. They need to refund asap because a lot of us are going to be angry!!! I feel a bit duped by them saying that they’ll be fulfilling orders

Did you see the email sent late last night?

doodleschnoodle · 21/08/2025 07:54

Oh it was a post on Circle.

It says: ‘Please also do not worry if your order is not approved yet - we are working over time to meet the demand and are approving orders by delivery dates (this is sometimes less than 24 hours before delivery date’

DH’s pen arrived last night, borderline for temperature I would say but he will use it next. His next two got dispatched last night and already an email from DPD saying delayed again so def something going on.

There’s also a lot on there saying they’re delaying due to a lack of stock 😕 I’ve had no answer to my texts etc., so I’m feeling very annoyed!

@Ezzalouxoxo I’ve used the Monj list which I’ve ended up having a price comparison done from. I also tend to order from my phone and I’ve got a coupon widget attached to the browser so when I get to checkout, it searches and applies the best discount there is available.
