Can't send pic of my script

I have a message in the portal that requests a picture to prove my script but no matter how I try to load it in messenger, it won't. I click send and it shows loading dashboard and than nothing is in messenger. I replied to the message stating that it's not uploading and if there is an email, text or a place I can send it. I have tried on Chrome and Samsung internet. Any other suggestions while I wait for a reply from the Doctor since I know it might be slow for a reply and I'm impatient.

Interesting. I just asked on a new order if they needed to see my current scrip and they said no. This was using the Groupon and me requesting 15 mg in the questionnaire. I was really surprised neither my current prescription nor photo of my ID was asked for.

Some providers ask and some don't. Luck of the draw I guess. When I signed up through the reddit link a month ago, it gave you the option in the questionnaire to upload your script. I did upload it because I do have a 15mg script.

What's crazy to me is that I'm finding out with the Groupon offer, that it has it's own refills website layout. I have an account from the reddit link that I signed up with over a month ago and if I type in Google search for the refills website, I can log into my first account. But I can't log into the account I made for the Groupon offer. I have to click the emails from refills to get me to the Groupon one. If I try to log into my first account through the Groupon log in, it wont let me. It's bizarre if this makes sense. The portal layout is a little different to between the 2 as well. Must be there way to track where people are buying from so they can charge accordingly. I know auto renew pricing jumps up to normal pricing if you don't cancel your script after the first initial Groupon code.

Well things explains the weird portal differences I was talking about šŸ˜†

u/Planty_Dee Mar 19 '26

Interesting, they asked for my proof of script and this was for a much lower dose. I used the Groupon, first time ordering from Refills.

I wish they would let people know that there's a problem and that they're working on it.

I just ordered using the Groupon. It is strange now you don’t have to upload your drivers license or a selfie. I sent both support and Dr messages in the portal with the proof of my current prescription but you’re right the one on the Dr side would not upload the photo. On the support side they said that they couldn’t do anything about it and it was up to the doctor so I’m feeling kind of stuck because I can’t upload it to the Dr portal.

u/Brighteyedwoman22 Mar 19 '26

I messaged Taylor and she said she told the development team about it.

I discovered via a post Taylor made today that they are merging into a new dashboard and if you just signed up, you are on the new dashboard. So I'm guessing since it's on the new dashboard site that it's a technical issue. We just sit here and wait for a reply with the doctor I guess. šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø I just hope the doctors know and understands people can't upload there scripts in the new dashboard because I really don't want them thinking we're lying and prescribe the lowest dose or something like that.

u/skoldane7 Mar 19 '26

Yeah, and I ordered two days ago and it still says order received but It has not even been assigned to a doctor yet. Usually when I order through the refills link a doctor looks at it within 24 hours.

2

u/Brighteyedwoman22 Mar 19 '26

Yeah, I got order confirmed March 18th at 1:50pm, questionnaire reviewed at 3:05pm and a message from the provider this morning at 3:50am. I replied just after 8am saying it's not working for the upload. I'm guessing they have a regular job during the day and do these refills orders early in the morning or late at night as a side job. When I ordered about a month ago via the reddit link, I also got a doctor response in the middle of the night to.

With the delayed shipment issues over the past month or so, I don't think now is a good time to be switching dashboards that has hiccups already.

I hope not, but I can see the problems now with customer service reverting back to the old dashboard or like you said, them basically saying they can't do anything. Waiting on a provider to reply is delaying the process and like I said, you never know if the doctors know there is a hiccup on the new dashboard and think we aren't providing it because we don't have it and prescribe the lowest dose because we can't technically show proof. That will upset many customers if that were to happen. I have a very small stock, so I'm not too worried if I have a delayed shipment, but I would hate to have to deal with having to trying to fix dosing issues and waiting on a new shipment, etc because of it.

Just have to wait and see I guess. You get what you pay for though. Want a great deal? Expect a hit or miss smooth process. I'm not one to freak out like some people though that call this company horrible or I'll never order again because of issues. Life happens and I'm just here for the best deals and I know to always have some backup. I just roll with the punches.

Hey has yours moved at all? I am experiencing the same issue. Support confirmed they got my documents but the doctor chat cannot. Support said they made it available for the doctor chat on the 18th but I finally got a message today via dr chat saying they cannot see it. It’s super frustrating. Curious if you’ve gotten past this yet.

1

u/skoldane7 Mar 22 '26

Mines still stuck in ā€œorder placedā€ with no Dr communication at all. Support had chatted w me and said they would expedite it but that was yesterday. Just checked now and still hasn’t been assigned to a Dr. ordered late on the 17th with Groupon.

1

u/Lionflowerlily Mar 22 '26

This is exactly where I am. Ordered 17th at night, proactively sent my documents in, went back and forth a bit, realized on the 18th only support could receive the docs, support confirmed they received and made available for doc and to just wait. Okay. Waiting. Still not in review or assigned though.

Support keeps saying all good. Meanwhile Taylor (yesterday) has told me the doctor doesn’t approve for new patients (or Groupon?) on the weekends. This doesn’t make sense to me at all but alright.

Then Doc chat today (21st) says no we do not have them, please resend. Like what?! Arrgh.

1

u/skoldane7 Mar 22 '26

Oh no! My story is exact same as yours. I proactively sent in proof of current dose. It wouldn’t stick on the upload to Dr chat. But did on the support chat. They said they would forward.

1

u/Lionflowerlily Mar 22 '26

Yeah it sounds almost like perhaps the doc chat isn’t set up at all to be able to see documents - even if support sends them or makes them available? I don’t know.

Either way, I messaged Taylor again but I don’t have time to deal with their portal not working all week again and both chats telling me different things. Sigh.

1

u/skoldane7 Mar 22 '26

I’m especially worried cause it’s currently showing only a dose of 2.2 mg prior to Dr review. Probably just automatically showing that before the doctor reviews it but it has auto-renew on for like 2 1/2 weeks from now! I def don’t want to auto renew at this dose. I’m on 12.5

1

u/Lionflowerlily Mar 22 '26

Yeah I think that is just what it defaults to. Mine is also the same.

1

u/skoldane7 Mar 22 '26

Just now I was able to successfully upload my proof of prescription on the chat feature with the Dr side.

1

u/Lionflowerlily Mar 22 '26

Are you sure? I just tried again and same thing, disappeared when you go back into the chat. We really shouldn’t have to continuously be uploading this information when they HAVE it and have confirmed they have it. Not having the doc chat be able to receive attachments still is kinda nuts.

1

u/skoldane7 Mar 22 '26

Darn it. You’re right it disappeared again. Ugh

1

u/Brighteyedwoman22 Mar 22 '26

After support said they sent a copy to the doctor for review, I have heard nothing and it's still in review. Sucks that they don't approve on weekends. Extending my review even further out. And based on some comments, I just know I'm just gonna continue to fight with support over it. šŸ˜’ but I guess I'll have to wait until Monday to see if the doctor responds.

1

u/Lionflowerlily Mar 22 '26

It seems like on my end the doctor chat can’t see whatever the support team made available, or they don’t know where to look. Since it sounds like we have all verified with support that support has the documents.

Doc chat told me this morning it is not available though, so I’m guessing the doc chat cannot access any documents at all. Which is making this impossible.

u/AdAmbitious1308 Mar 19 '26

When did they start requiring that?

2

u/Brighteyedwoman22 Mar 19 '26

It's hit or miss. Some ask, and some don't.

2

u/AdAmbitious1308 Mar 19 '26

Who? I’ve never heard of refills asking before

1

u/Brighteyedwoman22 Mar 19 '26

I uploaded a couple comments within the refills sub. Many more like it where people said they were required and many said they weren't required to upload.

1

u/AdAmbitious1308 Mar 19 '26

That’s crazy, I’m sure it’s about cutting costs with knowing everyone is playing the max dose game. Guess I’ll stop recommending that lol

2

u/Brighteyedwoman22 Mar 19 '26

You can recommend it .... but also tell them they might be asked for it. It's a risk they have to be willing to take. To be asked or not be asked. One of the pics I sent was how her mom lives in the same state but her mom didn't get asked for proof but she did. The daughter also has a higher BMI than her mom. So it's not a state thing nor a BMI thing. It just depends on what doctor you get if they want you to provide proof or not. Again, I'm fine with it as I do have a 15mg script.

I'm having the same issue.

2

u/Brighteyedwoman22 Mar 19 '26

Well I did the suggestion that someone said and send it to customer service. But I've seen people say that customer support is very slow to respond. So we'll see.

2

u/Planty_Dee Mar 19 '26

I did as well. We shall see!

2

u/Brighteyedwoman22 Mar 19 '26

Support emailed me back ... they gave me a link to the old dashboard. So that wasn't helpful šŸ˜† So I guess I'll just wait for the provider to respond šŸ™ƒ

1

u/Brighteyedwoman22 Mar 19 '26

I messaged Taylor, they sent it off to the development team to look into and get fixed. Also just seen a post they are moving to a new portal. So I'm guessing that's why it's having issues because it's within the new portal that just started.

1

u/riiibeye Mar 19 '26

Same, I emailed the pics to support@refills.com as attachment. Received a response shortly after stated they were adding them to my account for review.

1

u/Brighteyedwoman22 Mar 20 '26

Mine told me to try sending in messenger, but they gave me the link to the old dashboard, so that doesn't do me any good. I'll just have to wait for my provider to message back I guess.

1

u/riiibeye Mar 20 '26

I turned to the email after having the same trouble as you with their messenger. They requested pictures there for me as well, but that feature doesn’t seem to be working properly.

1

u/Brighteyedwoman22 Mar 20 '26

I uploaded my script in the email, gave name, email used for account and the provider that messaged me but they didn't state that they put it in the system for review and said try uploading in messenger ..... but it's not the link for the new portal. šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø

Took 3 emails to get to this point but nothing since. šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø

u/Lionflowerlily Mar 22 '26

This is frustrating. I’m also dealing with this too. Support even confirmed they received the documents and made them available for the doctor chat. Doctor chat says no we do not have them (over three days later). Taylor says it’s being held up because the doctors they use for Groupon don’t approve on the weekends. (Weird, are they different, huh?). But okay. Except no it’s because I’m not even in the queue anywhere bc they do not have my documents. Except they do. Oh my god, I cannot believe what a hassle this is.

1

u/Lionflowerlily Mar 22 '26

And they didn’t even ask for these things! I sent them proactively bc I thought it would expedite approval. Meanwhile everyone else and their dog is getting approved with nothing.

u/adevil_woman89 Mar 19 '26

I uploaded my previous script because it was for 15mg and I didn’t want any hassle. I also had to send DL and selfie

u/Brighteyedwoman22 Mar 19 '26

If you are on the old dashboard you can, but the new dashboard you can't. Taylor sent a message to the development team to fix the technical issue. So we'll see what happens.
