20 May Solicitation
20 May, 2021 Unsolicited cold call from local Walgreens on New Haven Ave West Melbourne FL. Normally I wouldn't pick up unless I knew I had a refill ready at the store, however... I had just picked up the day before. Hello, this is a (female) pharmacist at your local Walgreens on New Haven. How are you? Are you ***? What is your date of birth? Are you taking you heart medication regularly? (I recently refilled this prescription) Would you like to register for auto refill every 90 days? No. Why are you asking this? Your Insurance Co wants to verify. Well then, they should be asking my provider. Have you had a flu shot or the shingles booster. I don't do the flu shot and I had the Zoster, no booster required. There is a new shingles shot, two dose. Listen this is nothing but a sales call This is beneath a professional. (I don't think this caller was a pharmacists at all)!!! Walgreens put this person up to this to drum up business, (To insure they are the chosen pharmacy for your medications, and, come in and let us give you our flu and shingles shots also) (they get paid for this) I'm very annoyed and moving all of my prescriptions out of Walgreens to another pharmacy whom does not resort to this kind of harassment, and by the way, doesn't charge for BP medication among others.
