I use and trust this site. I am always pleased with my order, the wide variety of goods, the free shipping and the little freebies they throw in. My friends now use it too and they are just as happy with them as I am. An honest and we'll run company and Canadian!
I've ordered from them a handful of times and have never had any issues. Their regular prices are not unreasonable, and they have sales often. They also have a reasonable "free shipping" threshold. The only thing I find is that their shipping times are a little bit slow as they take a few days to process an order. Other than that, I've enjoyed my experiences with this company.
I ordered two items that I was unhappy with. I asked for a return, and well.ca customer service responded by telling me to feel free to donate the items, and they gave me a FULL refund! They did not want to inconvenience me by having me go to the post office, which as a new mom I was most grateful! Thank you well.ca for being so considerate and accommodating to new moms, a trip to the post office if definitely not as easy as it used to be. I will certainly be using well.ca in the future.
Awesome! Received a tracking number with bar chart of delivery progress. Arrived a day earlier than ETA. And, rather than styrofoam peanuts, packing filler was product samples. Relieved I took a chance as this is the only site I can purchase Weleda deodorant, the only natural product that doesn't leave me with BO at the end of the day ;)
I have discovered that Walmart has a lot of the same things but much cheaper and FREE shipping so I will continue to use Walmart as my main stay.
I have been shopping through this site for 2 years now with out any issue. Some may say its over priced but since I live up north most things are cheaper to order through Well. Especially health food product.
I'm pleased with my experience. My items arrived in about two days. One item was unavailable at local stores, and the other was cheaper (since the quantity was unavailable locally). It's now a top place I consider when I look for drugstore-related items.
Dont ever EVER order from this website again, trust me on this one.
I ordered once, paid for it and everything, and they send me an email saying they need a picture of my ID and debit card (which is very odd), so i send that in and they reply saying I need to call them, I call them, and they tell me I need to pay again cuz my "order didnt go through" (which was a lie) so i ended up paying for my items TWICE. Got ripped off about $60, and i kept calling them and emailing them to give me back my money, and they say that it would take 5 business days... FORTY DAYS LATER I finally get a refund AFTER calling well.ca, my bank and everything. It was such a hassle and I will never order from this website again.
I've ordered from them over a dozen times. The system of packaging, shipping, tracking and delivery is flawless. Items are packaged well and always arrive faster than expected. You can find good deals (cheaper than in regular stores) and with free shipping, its a no-brainer! This is an easy site to recommend.
AWESOME site. Good deals, sometimes great deals, and free shipping over $40. Makes life much easier. Items are ALWAYS as described. LOVE IT!
I love well.ca, it's like a big online pharmacy with a huuuge selection of products. The prices are comparable to other drug store but if you shop around and/or wait for sales you can save lots of time and money. Free shipping on orders over 25$, a few days to process your oder and then 2-4 days to receive it at your front door! They have amazing customer service and they really do cherish their cutomers
I'll start with CONS cause that's more interesting:
~~CONS~~
- waaay OVERPRICED compared to health stores. Their prices are only competitive compared to big corporations like Shoppers Drug Mart, Rexall, etc. that don't specialize in natural products. Otherwise, I've found most of what I'd need from WELL.CA carried at my local health store for anywhere from $5-$10 cheaper. That's a lot!
(Their prices have gone up a lot in the last couple of years since they've gotten bigger.)
- does not give you full ingredients list -- come on, even Sephora.com gives you ingredients list. This means you have no way of telling whether a product that is marketed as 'Natural' because it does contain SOME natural ingredients also contains toxic carcinogens, i. E. parabens, propylene glycol, etc.
~~PROS~~
- excellent communication, very fast replies and great about cancelling orders and returns
- fast shipping (for Canada at least)
- free shipping over $25, which is easy to hit considering the pricing
- good selection -- at least several brands of everything so you get some choice
Still, a good and reliable place to shop if you don't mind spending a lil bit more for the convenience and you already know what you're looking for!
I've ordered from them many times and am always satisfied with the product I receive.
They have great customer service and their website is user-friendly. My only complaint is that as they gain popularity, their processing time gets longer and longer. A year ago, I'd get my package in record time (2 days) and now it takes 1-1.5 weeks.
I have ordered from well.ca many times. I have never had issue with them. The one time I called customer service the lady was super nice. They have great products. I always order when I go to Canada for my long vacations. I dont have to pack all my cosmetics and lotions. They deliver quickly!
They have competitive prices and free shipping. It's like a drug store and health food store combined. I have stopped going to local drug stores because of Well.ca. They have excellent customer service. If something is damaged in transit, they will replace or refund the item very quickly, I don't even get asked to ship it back anymore (even when I used to ship returns, it was free return shipping). I have stopped going to Shoppers Drug Mart because of Well.ca. At SDM, I have had my time and money wasted due to missing, wrongly scanned or double-scanned items. At Well.ca I don't have to deal with lineups, rude shoppers, rude clerks or rude drivers. The items arrive on my doorstep and if there is a problem, I email them and get a replacement, without have to bring an item back to a store and line up. I save so much time from not having to line up and I save so much money in gas.
Fast and discreet shipping. Good selection of items. My gf orders from them and when one of her items didn't arrive, their customer service was great. They responded and shipped it out right away. She loves browsing their sale section.
Just ordered using the coupon code 8b5f0d8435 and saved $10 on my first order over $40
Placed an order here on Monday for two boxes of Nutricap (oddly discounted from any local SDM or FP stores). Also found a $10 off online couple for my order which made it significantly cheaper than if I'd bought it in a store. Shipping was free and it was at my door by Wednesday night. I would absolutely order from here again.
Well.ca is not worth the hassle. Go to shoppers drug mart/london drugs/pharma plus, it will save you a headache.
They are very deceptive with their delivery times. You have two options. First; you can have the product shipped to your home in 2-3 days or, secondly; you can have it shipped to a bufferbox in 1-2 days. I opted for the bufferbox location in order to receive my package sooner. They do not tell you that it takes an additional 2 -X amount of days to process your order first.
My delivery experienced a 'processing error' and my package sat at the bufferbox warehouse for 4 days. Not until i called did they find the error and assure me they would have it shipped out.
Horrible customer service experience with well.ca as well. When i called and explained the situation and suggested they talk to bufferbox, the women said its not well.ca's fault. I agreed with her and told her i was only suggesting they reevaluate their shipping methods.
Never again!
It's a a scam.
Placed an order for three items. Only one item was delivered, with a note saying that they were out of stock for the other two! The transaction was processed without me having a say in whether I want to cancel the entire purchase. Upon contacting them they just shrugged shoulders and blamed the supplier.
I will never do business with this company.
Answer: It's located in Guelph, Ontario, Canada. They have a huge warehouse here and I often see it when driving by during my business trip.
