Netmeds selling GV's at GYFTR has a special place in hell! Don't buy them!

Few months back I bought netmeds GV of 2k(1x1) as amazon voucher has a limit of 10k via amex 5x.

Anyways, I bought them thinking I'll buy nan pro for a friend and that way I can justify me buying them.

But, these GV are just and just for medicines.
2nd, if you finally do buy medicines and let's see you see a voucher of 22% off or anything and u apply it, you can then not use GV's for making the payment.

Netmeds really are devils. These GV's are not promo codes, I didn't got them for free. I paid 100% the amount. Any website/store ideally let's you use GV's regardless what you buy, but even if you buy medicines, still you can't use promocode for benefit.

It's like buying everything in retail price.

Such a shit experience. I advise everything, don't touch these gift vouchers with a 10 foot pole. Horrible experience. They deserve a place in hell for this. Shit company.

Edit : One last thing, I partially used 600 rs for a medicine order 1 hr back, and now I found few more items, worth 1400, so thought of buying all in one go, so I cancelled my 600 rs order. It's been 1 hr, and still gv's hasn't been refunded. What a shit show netmeds are running. You can't even get instant refund in GV's, gotta wait for netmeds to start their SBI/BSNL server after lunch break to finally refund at their convenience.
 
Same with Apollo pharmacy vouchers. It has to be redeemed at MRP. I made a point to never buy anything from Apollo pharmacy.

It's just a matter of time. Once flipkart/amazon/blinkit/zepto/swiggy expand in pharmacy quick commerce then only these apollo or netmed mf's know the value/respect of a customer. Till then, let them enjoy small customers that they get and small profit that they are making.

These kind of shit services is the reason why I actually prefer monopoly for temporary basis. These rats really need belt treatment.

I now use ASVs to buy medicines from Amazon. I know they don't have all the meds but for whatever they have, there is generally 10-15% discount, which when added to GV discount while buying using Infinia or Amex platinum travel, makes it a great deal.

Sometimes they also offer coupons like 200 off on 2k in pharmacy which makes it great

I never buy any medicine vouchers they all are fraud. Instead I got to medical shop and purchase and they give discounts. Say value is 1k I pay 900 for senior citizen it is little more discount. I only purchase itc and taj vouchers else petrol discounted vouchers. Rest all bakwas
 
I recently purchased a Netmeds gift voucher through Gyftr (HDFC), expecting a seamless experience. Unfortunately, it turned out to be quite the opposite due to several restrictive terms and conditions that were not clearly communicated upfront:

1. Limited Applicability: The voucher is valid only for prescription medicines. This limitation wasn’t made clear during the purchase, leading to disappointment - even Ayurvedic is not allowed!

2. Non-Stackable with Promotions: The voucher cannot be combined with any existing offers or promotional codes on the Netmeds platform. This means missing out on potential discounts, which diminishes the voucher’s value

3. Redemption Issues: Despite following the provided instructions, I encountered errors stating the voucher was invalid. Customer support was slow to respond, adding to the frustration.

4. Quantity Restrictions: Only two gift vouchers can be used in a single transaction, further limiting their utility for larger purchases.


These constraints make the Netmeds Gyftr vouchers more of a hassle than a convenience. I urge potential buyers to thoroughly read the fine print and consider these limitations before making a purchase.
