I'd priced up three other UK sites before choosing this one because I needed a regular monthly top up of strips. The money I saved over a year is quite significant, and the reorder page means I don't have to search for the codes each time. It arrived quickly and the strips were in good condition. Happy with the choice.
Read moreI ordered a box of strips and a control solution, which was all in stock. The order took nearly a week to arrive, and when I rang to ask, the reply came two days later by email. The product itself is what I expected and the price was fair. I'm not sure I'd rush back to order again given the wait.
Read moreThe strips arrived quickly and were the ones I'd ordered, so nothing wrong there. Compared with a couple of other UK suppliers I checked, though, they were noticeably more expensive per box and the delivery charge was on top. I did get a reply to my question about the order within a day, which helped. For the price I'd have hoped for a bit more, and I'm likely to shop around next time before I…
Read moreGot my test strips on time, which was good. Thought I'd send back one box that was the wrong size, and the returns form kept timing out so I gave up and kept it. Not sure what happened there. Prices are decent though.
I bought the lancet refill pack for my pen device and it fits perfectly, which was the main thing I needed. The price was a bit more than I'd paid on another site last month, so I've knocked a star off for that. Delivery was quick and nothing was damaged.
I needed to order testing supplies after my diagnosis and my nurse said to look online if the pharmacy queue was too long. This was my first time ordering from them so I wasn't sure what to expect. Sign up asked for a few details and it took a bit longer than I'd like, with one page timing out. Once I was through the order was simple and the strips came within the week.
My mum was struggling to get to the pharmacy after her diagnosis so I set up an order for her here. Easy to do on my phone and the delivery went straight to her door. The box took a day or so longer than I'd hoped, but it got there.
I bought a refill pack of lancets for my existing pen device, the right gauge and everything. I've been testing for about twenty years so I knew exactly what I wanted and it was all listed clearly with the right specifications. Delivery was next day and the lancets are sharp and consistent. Only slight gripe is the price is a touch higher than the cheapest I've found elsewhere, but not by much.
I'd been diagnosed a few weeks before and my GP said I'd need to start testing properly, so I was looking for somewhere online to get strips without queuing at the pharmacy. The site was easy enough to use and the order went through without fuss. The delivery took a bit longer than the page said, around four working days, which was a bit annoying when I'd run low. Otherwise it's done what I needed.
Ordered my usual strips and they came in two days. The outer box had been squashed a bit in transit but the inside was fine and nothing had broken. Would have been nicer if they'd packed it better. Ordering was easy enough.
Ordered the Contour strips last week because my usual ones were out at the pharmacy. Arrived next day, box was intact and the strips were in date. Only thing was the tracking link didn't work for the first day so I had to check my email for the confirmation instead. Otherwise sorted, would order again.
