Since the initial call, I have heard very little contact from Bladdet and Bowel, and have had no support to speak of, in fact the service I have received has had me in tears, that now my husband deals with Bullens directly and have had no input with Bladder and Bowel for for quite sometime. Very disappointing as this is not what was promised over the phone, Unfortunately a company that as soon as they have your prescription you are just another number, would not recommend at all

Dear Ailish, We are reviewing our process in line with your feedback - thank you for your comments. We think you may have downloaded a free digital card, as opposed to opting for the paid-for plastic card? If you'd still like a plastic card - or need to chase up an order - please email us at help@bladderandbowel.org and we'll guide you through the process.

Wanted a *Just cannot wait card,* signed-up cannot download as do not have a printer cannot download to ifone as it asks for a credit card to be added before it will add any other cards to an iwallet. I was called by one of your CS advisors whom used my details to cold call, I explained I coukd not diwnload tbe digital one as I cannot use my Iwalket asjed could I be sent a physical card. I was told I could not have one unless I was a customer. Was given a lia List of things you provide and etc also went through all complimentary items too. When I said my district nurses use another company I was told I can use who I want it is easy to change over, that You could send out my prescription without waiting for my GP to sign it was also told can get any NHS prescriptions for me. False reasons to get people to sign up wrongful advertising* I am dusgusted you can do this to anyone & will be posting to Social Media platforms about my experience & why I could not have a card. When you say on your website sign up get a free JCW card. What a load of waffle. If I was looking to change to another supplier it certainly would not be your company based on your ethics! I just can't wait to post this on Social Media. Have a nice day!

I requested my a "have to go key and card", about a month or so ago, and still haven't received either of those resources as yet. Can you advise whether you require further information, or why this is the case? Trust I'll hear from someone shortly. Best wishes Marcus J PETER [Mr]

Dear Jan, We're so sorry to hear this happened to you, this must have been incredibly difficult. We're working on a new Toilet Scheme campaign to help businesses to understand what it means to live with a bladder and bowel condition and recognise the Just Can't Wait Card, which we hope in turn will reduce instances like this. In the meantime, thank you for your feedback, and we hope you stay with us on the journey - the more people who use the card, the more it will be recognised. Kind regards - Bladder & Bowel Community
