We are having IVF abroad and the drug companies offer discounts to UK paitents travelling overseas for treatment, however the clinic has to be registered. I contacted fertility 2U 1 week before I was due to start my stimulation and my clinic was not registered. Fertility 2U went out of their way to get my clinic registered so I could benifit from the discount. It all went through in time for my medication to be delivered o time and I saved over £200

AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS.
We are going through our second round of self funded IVF and I shopped around for the cheapest IVF Meds. I sent Emails to several companies, got quotes from the recommended supplier we had used before and also from Asda.
Fertility 2U were the cheapest by far (I even emailed to check they hadn't made a mistake). They said the prices were correct but couldn't supply synarel so we paid out over £200 to have it supplied by our clinic's supplier and a further £50 for the Private Prescription.
I uploaded the prescription to the website and then got a reply with a quotation which was more expensive than any of the other quotes from other companies.
I replied and copied the earlier quote and subsequent query correspondence but was told that the person answering the enquiry had misread the prices and the quote was not valid.
I now need to go to Asda to get the rest of what we need and when we add the price of the private prescription and extortionate synarel, it is by far the most expensive way we could have done it.
This whole situation is stressful enough without mistakes being made by alleged 'professionals'.
These are the most expensive meds available and having checked, Asda are supplying IVF Meds NOT FOR PROFIT (which was still beaten by Fertility 2U by several hundred pounds until I was ready to pay!)
I am very angry and feel let down. We have spent over £17000 so far and feel we are being fleeced by an industry only interested in making money from peoples desperation.
