I've always found the service I receive from Securicare Medical Ltd brilliant. From their friendly, helpful telephonist to their equally friendly delivery driver. A seamless, efficient service gets a BIG thank you from me.

Absolutely the best! My order always comes within 2 days and sometimes the next day. Luckily my doctor's receptionists are also very quick at approving my prescription. Staff are very knowledgeable and always have time to talk and advise without making you feel rushed.

This company is probably the worse I havevever dealt with. I am critically short of bags after being promised an urgent delivery, what am I going to do now. The stress and worry is awful.

Respond are ultra-reliable and have even on one occasion gone to extreme lengths to get me the equipment I required in an emergency situation. I have never been disappointed or let down when I have ordered stoma-related products. Respond, over the 20 years, I have been receiving products from Respond they have always kept me informed of new ranges of products. They communicate with me, the customer, in the friendliest of manners and provide me. Read more

Respond, over the 20 years, I have been receiving products from Respond they have always kept me informed of new ranges of products. They communicate with me, the customer, in the friendliest of manners and provide me with information to enable me to make an informed judgment, thereby giving me confidence in the products that I use. I have also visited them in the Open Days they provide and this is also great for face to face communication and to see the range of products they have available.

Absolutely shocking service and communication from Amcare, no follow up on calls, promise to ring you back and never do. Never take responsibility and no urgency or understanding to your situation.The worse company I have ever used.

The staff go above and beyond to help with queries and assist with any prescription problems and delays with my surgery as I have experienced a couple of times. They are understanding and reassuring that I will not go without my supplies, thank you to the helpful lady I spoke to today.

Do not expect a lecture on how to use the products that we have been using for 15 years we are not wasteful and certainly don’t discard these items on a whim phoned up for a status on our order and got a lecture on how we should be more careful and efficient with the bags

Absolutely brilliant. Always helpful, telephione always answered promptly (even in lockdown!) and very nice advisers too. Very glad I switched from my previous company. Delivery is always prompt and I cannot recommend Respond highly enough. Big thank you!

As with other reviews the service from Amcare has completely fallen apart over the past few months , calls take forever to be answered,, orders then need to be chased , leaving me critically short of bags. This month after much confusion and well over an hour on the phone I was promised order would be released with 72 hrs, well over a week later I received a package containing disposal bags and dry wipes.

As with other reviews the service from Amcare has completely fallen apart over the past few months , calls take forever to be answered,, orders then need to be chased , leaving me critically short of bags. This month after much confusion and well over an hour on the phone I was promised order would be released with 72 hrs, well over a week later I received a package containing disposal bags and dry wipes only - no stoma bags or spray , and no dispatch note or explanation . After yet another long wait to get call answered I was informed that both my stoma bags and spray were out of stock when I placed my order. No one had bothered to let me know or indeed explain why they would send out wipes / disposal bags without any explanation. After requesting precise info on when I would receive my supplies I was put on hold yet again, finally I was informed that I would definitely receive them today - guess what no supplies delivered so once again running short and face the saga of yet another horrendous wait on phone tomorrow. The guys answering the phone appear to be doing their best but like others I will be looking at other suppliers I cannot cope with additional stress this is causing . Despite Amcares letter promising things will get better I am not convinced , I simply do not understand how an upgrade in a computer system has led to this chaos .

As stated by many others, this used to be a good company but this last 4-6 weeks have been a nightmare. No phone answering, 5-day response to e-mails, promises of outstanding orders being delivered which were not. I originally ordered 5 boxes of pouches and some flange extenders. After having to resort to social media (why would any competent company need to use social media ????) to contact I have now received 6 orders and. Read more

After having to resort to social media (why would any competent company need to use social media ????) to contact I have now received 6 orders and instead of the 5 boxes I ordered I now have 13 of various sorts but am still waiting for the flange extenders. My GP surgery does not know what I want so I have had to write two letters to explain the situation to them. I have had success with Coloplast Charter so I shall use them in future.

I am so impressed with the efficiency and friendliness if the people involved. I have spoken the Cheryl and Doreen, who could not be more helpful. This company exemplifies tge better side of health care.

I was getting my stoma products from BCA-Direct based in the North east and yes they were very friendly and helpful, however when Amcare took them over I continued to call them direct and received the same service level. Now I believe Amcare have tried to amalgamate local UK founded suppliers into their Am(erican)care Convatec group. So now things have completely changed. Did our Government say they were not going to sell our NHS to. Read more

Awful lack of service and communication. Essential colostomy bags not delivered. Repeated unanswered phone calls and E Mails to Armcare over the last 6 weeks. Ansaphone blames IT updates etc. Sorry that is not good enough in business. I will not use them again as I do not want the stress and associated worries caused by trying to use them. Doubt that they will still be in business after this debacle over the last few. Read more

No point telling people about my experience as they can obviously see Amcare’s lame reply about I.T and software issues. Just remember if you in a company you have a management structure that should plan accordingly if any work is to be carried out with I.T etc, clearly the management aren’t fit for purpose meaning the workers are being steered by a rudderless ship.

Since May Amcare have ceased to provide a viable service to a very vulnerable client base - my orders have not arrived leading to me seeking supplies directly from the NHS - whilst they send letters saying they are concerned and will do everything possible their actions say otherwise.

Appalling and disgusting service, no one answering phones, automated email replies and no deliveries, this company needs their contract with NHS removed left my father with only 2 bags left. No thought for customer/clients. They have had enough time to sort their software issues now!

Amcare have gone from being a reliable and communicative provider of my ostomy supplies to a totally useless organisation. All you get is an excuse about a software update causing delivery issues, what a load of rubbish!. I spent a lifetime working in IT and know for a fact that even the most serious software glitches can be addressed and remedied by responsible organisations in a relatively short space of time. Something more sinister has to be occurring here and the consequences for customers could not be more serious. Amcare are incapable of even communicating with customers to address extreme delivery issues. I personally am now in a desperate situation with no stoma pouches, a situation which I was able to inform Amcare of after waiting an eternity on the phone, and must now resort to my GP surgery for advice on where to obtain emergency supplies and advice on switching to a supplier who has the interests of customers as a number one priority. I would advise all Amcare customers to move to another supplier immediately as excuses and promises bare no fruit whatsoever from this company.

Absolutely appalling will not answer their phones im desperate to place an order as have no stoma supplies.. is this the way you treat your customers. So I'm going to register with a more reliable company who will talk to their patients

Suddenly from being a reliable and friendly communicative company Amcare has become an answering machine service with no one answering and most importantly not processing nor delivering orders.Like others I have received platitudes about their endeavours.However it seems they have changed software and effectively closed down the whole order/delivery process. The volume of phone calls and emails are as a direct result of this change. Rather than platitudes I would prefer a plan of action. Read more

I originally was getting product from BCA Direct which now seems to be AMCARE or did someone just change my supplier without telling me? Like almost all recent reviews I cannot get any indication of product delivery. They do not answer the 0800 phone number and have sent me 2 letters & an Email with platitudes but no delivery promise. IT'S NOT LONG BEFORE I RUN OUT OF PRODUCT. I WOULD SUGGEST WE ALL VOTE. Read more

As per the previous reviews how has this company gone from very good to extremely bad in such a short time. My husband has been receiving stoma products for some years with no problem. Yesterday we had to telephone the Stoma Nurse at Medway Hospital who advised that they had many calls regarding the same subject (over 100). Fortunately they were very helpful and put us in touch with another company. Amcare has no excuses. Read more

They have failed to realise how stressful this is to Stoma patients and I am personally concerned for the people who cannot help themselves regarding this, how are they coping? Apologising doesn't cut it with these seriously ill patients.

After 9 plus years using this company for my stoma supplies I find I can’t speak to no one auto email replies .One e mail reply did say I should have received my order if not it would arrive 72 hrs checked with my surgery no prescription had been submitted. Now been transferred to local chemist.

Normally the staff are very friendly and helpful, but what on earth has happened ? Software problems ? Come on, what does it take to answer a phone or reply to e-mails ? Even if we heard that "your supplies will be delivered within 10 days" would be better than nothing. Living with a colostomy can be stressful but letters apologising for delays with no action taken are the absolute pits and adds to all. Read more

We are not unreasonable people but SPEAK TO US, TELL US WHAT IS WRONG, GIVE US SOME CONFIDENCE and moreover give us the supplies we ordered. I have reported this to the NHS. I am off to Coloplast Direct. Shame on you Amcare

I also agree with the coments made, i too have spent hours on the phone trying to get my order sent, sent email`s and each time they said that they would send my order, nearly a month later i still have not received it . their customer service is rubbish no returned calls as promised no email`s no contact at all.

As with other reviews, the default response when an order is not dispatched has always been that the GP has not sent it to them. After chasing up each time this has never been the case (which of course wastes the GP Surgery's time) and the prescription has always been with Amcare but not actioned. Considering they deal with such critical products, that you can't just obtain elsewhere, and supply to many vulnerable people, the way in which this Company has been managed in the past couple of years is nothing short of appalling. I now have no other option but to approach the GP to find an alternative supplier.

For several weeks I have been unable to get an answer on their phones. They replied to one email to say my prescription was with them and my order would ho out that week. Still waiting over a week later. They are no longer answering emails and was on hold many times and have given up. What is the problem with Amcare? The products are essential medical items and they cannot treat customers like this.

My Father was left with absolutely no supplies after placing an order on 4th June. You did not even get in touch with his Surgery to place the order and collect payment as is usually the case. We will be contacting you by Legal letter with a view to taking Legal Action. The e mail you sent me stipulating contacting me in 72 hours has been completely ignored and not followed up on. Disgraceful level. Read more

Been with Amcare for four years! Since Christmas their service has been terrible! Chased an order from the 4th June to be told My Surgery hadn’t sent the Prescription back! Blatant lie they hadn’t asked for one! Eventually they promised to send me an order prescription on not five days later still not had anything! Sent e mails and rang no reply! Stoma Nurse has supplied me with products! Will now change companies just hopeless!

I have been using Amcare / Convatec products since 1994 company all these Years was Very Professional , Customer service one of the best , deliveries fast , but Unfortunately this Month June all went wrong and massive delays and over 30 min to 45 min waiting customer support to answer calls, and massive delays on Deliveries too, they claim they have a New System in the company that is not working correctly to process.

I would guess, ?

I have been trying to contact AmCare through 2 of their numbers for 3 days holding on for over 20 minutes each time I call. I am now exceptionally low on supplies which were ordered through my Stoma Nurse. This is completely out of the ordinary and I am wondering if the business has folded, anyone know?

I have been with Amcare for 7 years. Yes, they have friendly staff, however I have had hiccups in the past but stuck by them, however recently it's been appalling. Firstly for ages, I never know what day or time I'm getting a delivery. My delivery came the other day with one much needed item missing, and all my bags cut several mm larger than I can use. I rang to let them know, I. Read more
I have been with Amcare for 7 years. Yes, they have friendly staff, however I have had hiccups in the past but stuck by them, however recently it's been appalling. Firstly for ages, I never know what day or time I'm getting a delivery. My delivery came the other day with one much needed item missing, and all my bags cut several mm larger than I can use. I rang to let them know, I was told my missing item would be in the post asap for next day or day after delivery, 5 days later it appeared. On top of that I was told new bags would arrive with me by beginning of the week. One box instead of 3 came, cut incorrectly again! I have spent time emailing them, only hearing from the cutting department and I'm now waiting to hear from them regarding this incorrect box. 1 hour trying to get through the other day, I couldn't hold on any longer as I had other stuff to do. Next day I rang again took me 40 minutes, I was told I'd get next day delivery but I didn't. So I rang in the morning to leave a voicemail message hoping they would ring me back… Not a chance. So now with only 3 bags left I'm going to order with a new company. They need to buck up their ideas because people can not be left in the lurch when it comes to stoma bags. I Would never recommend this company now.

For the past 2 weeks No response to telephone calls, messages or emails Something must have gone very wrong with this business, as I have been using this service since 2016 a never experienced anything like this, it has always been a friendly, efficient service. As of today I'm desperate for stock

I thought the whole point of the monthly prescription was for Amcare to deal with my surgery not me.l was told that l would never be left without products and l am, l don't get the urgent sent out to me as promised and found out they won't without receiving the prescription that's pointless as they then send the whole ordering??I need these products to live a normal life but each month l have the worry it's not going to be there for me. On average l must phone between 3 and 4 times to see if the prescription is there, what's the point of having monthly prescription when lm the one sorting. Seriously thinking of changing services.

I have used amcare now for 5 years, they have always been helpful, friendly and professional; up till now!! I have now been trying to speak to someone there for a week, my calls are not picked up, I've been on hold again this morning for another 25 minutes, my emails are ignored and my Facebook messages, although picked up, have not been followed through. I don't believe it's due to covid as this has. Read more

Have had to make 3 phone calls in a week to find out where a monthly automated order is. Now in the 7 weeks and no sign of it. The staff are unhelpful and won't allow you to tell them about the series of calls and what was said!! Instead I was told my call would be terminated because I was frustrated.

I have been trying to make an order for 10 days. No one picks up the phone. I tried to set up an account 10 days ago (to order on line) still not been responded to. Does Amcare still exist?!

I have been a customer of Amcare Group for over 20 years following surgery at Christie Hospital, Manchester. The service from Amcare over this period has been outstanding with correctly picked, packed and delivered orders arriving on-time consistently. During my career, I have performed a number of management roles with some very large organisations from high street retailers to electronics and food manufacturing. I remain envious of the Customer Service standards demonstrated by Amcare Staff. Read more

During my career, I have performed a number of management roles with some very large organisations from high street retailers to electronics and food manufacturing. I remain envious of the Customer Service standards demonstrated by Amcare Staff and would have been very pleased if I was the department manager! The Customer Service Staff (with whom I have had many conversations) are always extremely polite, professional and, very importantly, friendly. Staff are clearly recruited carefully, well trained and thoroughly instructed at Amcare. In recent years I have been an advocate of celebrating the great work that our colleagues perform each day - rather than concentrating on mistakes and minor errors when they occur. Therefore, please pass my comments on to ALL Amcare Staff and thank them for their continued outstanding customer care.

My husband has had a colostomy for 20 years and the service Amcare provide just make this situation easier to manage and we know we can always rely on them. Thank you Amcare from the bottom of our hearts.

What an absolute pleasure it is to deal with the Amcare team Right from the start, when I was scared and a weepy mess, they gave me practical help and a sympathetic ear Now some 3-4 years on, I have enjoyed friendly conversations, giggles and good advice Whoever is responsible for selecting and training this team of first class people has definitely got it right! Well done Team Amcare for making an unpleasant situation manageable. Read more

A warm and friendly team, who do whatever they can to help. They even make helpful product suggestions if you are worried or not happy. They have been fabulous in making my life easy. I call once every couple of months, and very quickly after, everything arrives. Brilliant

My previous suppliers telephone staff seemed disinterested in my problems. Amcare were totally different. They have changed my life for the better, and I am grateful for that.
