Successful ordering of 1mg Rotexmedica Hydroxycobalamin to UK

[grayvic]

Thank you to denisemilden in advance for the advice. Just wanted to post with my experience of trying to order to UK via the pharmacy websites ....

I tried ordering 1mg ampoules from my care.de and versandApo and couldn't select the United Kingdom when I tried their regular pay button.

When I chose the Amazon.de pay method instead, it went through fine. I was also able to find the same product on Amazon.de website direct. Here, when I got to the pay cart, it said it was being distributed by Bodfeld Apotheke (even the though I couldn't find a UK shipping option on the Bodfeld site).

It does seem that the pharmacy sites (in german) don't offer a UK shipping address, but the trick is going through Amazon.

I am probably stating the obvious, (I know I am, you're all so experienced), and this is probably already somewhere on the site. I just thought a recent post, with a recent order instruction and confirmation might help newbies like me ...

I have an email to say it has gone through fine, and can update once delivered / any issues.

Thank you forum ...

Mycare.de is not currently delivering to U.K. , but hope to do so in the New Year . As for Bodfeld-Apotheke.de and versandapo.de , I have ordered from them in the last week without problem . Amazon.de supply B12 ampoules to the U.K. by way of Bodfeld , but they cost twice as much as if you ordered them direct from Bodfeld! There are 2 or 3 other German online Pharmacies that supply U.K. through Amazon .

Hi,

Thank you. Perhaps it was something that I did wrong?

I couldn't seem to find UK / GB / Britain / England in the drop-down menu on either site? I had it on translate but it didn't seem to work on the drop-down and I'm certain it didn't have UK as an option - perhaps because I am new to make an account?

If you have any advice on this for future orders that would be most helpful, as I struggled for well over an hour.

I gave up when I read that others on the forum had the same issue (and suspected post-Brexit clampdown?) ...

Thank you again

Victoria

The only thing that I can think of is that I am registered with both sites . I have to enter a password to use it . I’ve just tried a” pretend purchase” ,with Bodfeld , and it went through , and my UK address was printed out , DHL delivery for €9.00 . I didn’t have to use a drop down address because as I’m registered , it appears automatically . The Rotexmedica B12 depot costs €5.45 . Otherwise it’s another of life’s mysteries .Glad that you got your supplies from Amazon .de . One really needs a few suppliers because sometimes one of them runs out of the B12 ampoules.So that’s why I use 2-3 suppliers . I buy for a neighbour as well , as she can’t manage the Internet .

Just thought . Does the drop down menu for the various countries appear in German ? If it does , you need to look for “ Vereinigtes Konigreich” , or Grossbrittanien . I’m just madly trying to find a reason !

I've just ordered 100 ampoules from versandapo.de and it went through no problems. That may be because, like wedgewood I have registered. And paying by PayPal or Amazon Pay uses their address info.

When I first wen to pay by PayPal it didn't know I was shipping to the UK because it asked me to go through again with the higher amount due to shipping.

I must say, £53 for a years worth doesn't seem too bad.

I just ordered last week from versandapo.de and it went through no problem. Paid by paypal. Arrived in 5days to Scotland.

I just tried ordering through versandapo.de for delivery in the US, and received this error: "Bei der Verarbeitung Ihrer Daten ist ein Fehler aufgetreten! Die von Ihnen gewählte Versandadresse ist nicht zulässig Fehler".... translated: "An error occurred while processing your data! The shipping address you have chosen is not allowed error"

Anyone know of a source that will ship hydroxyB12 ampules, preferably Rotexmedica, to the US? The Goldpharma site that I used in the past appears to be not available now.
