No communication after placing order. About to cancel and get my money back if I have to go through my bank

Applied on 8/29 .The website says that I would be contacted in 24 hours..the portal shows processing and it was 72 hours and I heard nothing..finally called got customer service after 3 calls..was told nothing was available for my state NC ..The rep scheduled an appointment 2 weeks out to speak with a clinican..so far I am highly disappointed with the service...quick to charge your credit card but fail on everything else..wish I had read your reviews before I ordered..read all the reviews about not refunding even where the meds come damaged!!

We’re sorry that your experience has been so disappointing. We understand how frustrating it is to expect a contact within 24 hours, wait 72 hours without hearing anything, and then have to make multiple calls just to learn that an appointment isn’t available in your state for another two weeks. We also understand your concern about being charged before you were able to move forward with your care.
We’d appreciate the opportunity to review your account and understand what happened with your application and appointment scheduling. Please reach out to our support team with your details so we can look into this and properly address your concerns.

Support lies to me about having someone…
Support lies to me about having someone call me in 24 to 48 hours. No one ever calls. I was billed $129 on August 14, 2026.
I spoke to a medical provider August 27, 2026 and was approved for my medication. She said it would ship out to me in 2 to 4 business days. It never shipped. My account has been processing waiting for approval from medical provider for 6 business days. I don't need this stress in my life. I will file a dispute with my bank for a full refund. I never received my medication. I want a full refund ASAP. Go with a different company because this company is a sham business.

We’re sorry you’ve had to repeatedly follow up and that the communication you received did not match what actually happened. We understand how frustrating it is to be promised a callback within 24–48 hours, receive approval from a medical provider with an expected 2–4 business day shipping window, and then still see your order sitting in processing without receiving your medication.
We’d appreciate the opportunity to review your order, approval, and refund request to understand where the process broke down. Please reach out to our support team with your order details so we can properly investigate the delay and address your request.

⭐ Disappointed With the Delays and Lack of Clear Communication
I signed up with Embody on August 30 and was genuinely excited to start my journey with them. Their pricing for tirzepatide looked affordable, and I was hoping this would be a company I could stay with long-term.
Unfortunately, five days later, my prescription is still showing as “Pending Medical Review,” meaning it has not even been reviewed by a healthcare provider yet.
I have called multiple times to check the status. For the last couple of days, I have repeatedly been told to “wait another 24–48 hours,” but no one has been able to give me a clear answer about when my medical review will actually take place or when my medication will ship.
This is especially disappointing because the online advertising indicated that orders could be shipped within approximately two business days of the initial setup. I understand that companies can experience higher-than-normal volume, backorders, or delays, but if that is what is happening, I would much rather receive honest and proactive communication about it instead of repeatedly being told to wait another 24–48 hours.
For comparison, because I was becoming concerned about the delay, I signed up with Good Life. Within two days, my information was reviewed, my prescription was reviewed by a provider, and my medication has already shipped.
At this point, I’m unfortunately not satisfied with my experience with Embody. The biggest issue for me isn’t simply having to wait—it’s the lack of communication and not having a clear timeline. My account still says “Pending Medical Review,” and when I call, I don’t really receive an answer beyond being told to continue waiting.
I was genuinely hoping for a positive long-term experience with this company because their pricing appealed to me. Hopefully they improve their processing times and, more importantly, their communication with new patients. Right now, I’m basically left feeling like whenever it gets reviewed and shipped, it gets reviewed and shipped, which isn’t the experience I expected when signing up.

We’re sorry that your first experience with Embody has been disappointing, especially since you joined with the expectation of starting your treatment promptly and potentially staying with us long-term. We understand that the biggest frustration isn’t simply the wait—it’s not knowing when your medical review will actually happen or when your medication will ship.
Thank you for sharing such detailed feedback. We’ll take your concerns about processing times and communication seriously. We’d appreciate the opportunity to review your account and see what is causing the delay. Please reach out to our support team with your order details so we can look into your status and make sure you receive a clear update.

We’re sorry that our previous response did not resolve the issue you were reaching out about. We understand why seeing a public response without receiving meaningful follow-up would be especially frustrating, particularly when you’ve already spent hours trying to reach someone and are now missing a scheduled dose.
We take your concerns about the lack of communication and the urgency of your medication situation seriously. You should not have to repeatedly explain the same issue or remain on hold without a clear path toward resolution.
We’d like the opportunity to review what happened with your account and the previous escalations, including why the promised follow-up did not occur. Please reach out to our support team with your account details so we can locate the prior interactions and ensure your concerns are routed appropriately.

I created an order
I created an order, and it was delivered, except the vial of GLP_1. Once I received the incomplete order and reached out to customer service both via email and by calling, I finally received a generic email 8 days later telling me to take a picture of everything I received. They had a list, by that time, I had kept most of the proof except the physical box. Now again, 6 more days and several emails, I have not heard from them and if I would receive my vial, which I had paid for. To this day, I'm still waiting to hear from them.
Please be careful when ordering from them, if all goes well, I'm sure they are helpful, but if there is a problem, you are all alone and have lost your money. Don't trust the reviews, do your research and be careful when it comes to this company.

We’re sorry you received an incomplete order and then had to wait so long just to get a response. We understand how frustrating it must be to receive everything except the vial you paid for, provide the requested documentation, and then still be left without an update after multiple follow-ups.
We’d like the opportunity to review your order and the previous communications so we can determine what happened and make sure your missing vial is properly addressed. Please reach out to our support team with your order details so we can investigate and help resolve this.
