Everlywell’s product was defective and customer service was not helpful.
I ordered Everlywell’s heart health test kit. It was on sale for $69 instead of the usual $99. It measures cholesterol values and HbA1c. When I received the kit, their app would not let me register the kit. After contacting them via email several times and waiting for their response, I learned that they didn’t register this kit in their system, thus I could not register it. Finally, my kit got registered to me. This wasted ONE full week! When my results came back, only the blood sugar value was present, not the cholesterol values. It said it was unable to determine the cholesterol values from the kit. No explanation, nothing!! I fired off an email to customer service (after looking for their contact info for 15 minutes again!) Days later the customer service email asked me to submit my purchase ID because they didn’t know what product I was talking about. I searched for an hour for that ID and it was no where in the app. Frustrated, I finally found a phone number for them ((888) 813-0230) and called. I was told that the lab damaged my sample during testing and they would escalate my issue. More waiting! Finally, an email came and they offered to send another kit to me. Now a month had passed and I had no cholesterol values yet. I politely refused and asked for a refund. This went back and forth for days but finally they agreed to refund me all except $15 for reasons I do not understand. Exhausted, I accepted this outcome knowing that they were not fully upright with me and the whole customer service process is crazy at Everlywell. There are much better companies out there for labs. Check the ratings and you’ll find plenty of 4 and 5 rated companies. Everlywell is probably understaffed and very disorganized.

We're truly sorry for the frustration and delays you experienced throughout this process — from the registration issue to the sample damage and the lengthy back-and-forth. This isn't the experience we want for our customers, and we appreciate your patience in working through it with us.
