Chemist Warehouse Click & Collect Requires Three Forms of Identification

Hi everyone,

I went to the store to collect an order for wifey and during the process I provided my photo ID and the confirmation email. Unfortunately, they still wanted me to show wifey credit card, otherwise I can't have the order.

I checked with the customer service, and the response was:

Who ever picks up the order need to have 3 forms of identification.
-Their ID
-Credit card used to pay
-Email confirmation/ Tax invoice

In my opinion, in some cases, the collector is not able to obtain the buyer's credit card. In my case, I was told to get a picture of the credit card to prove the possession.

On hindsight I should have gone to the shelves, lined up to pay and leave. Or maybe wifey should use paypal so that I don't need to hold everyone up behind me, not to mention the look that I got from the staff.

    Needing to produce the credit card that was used to pay for a click-and-collect order is standard procedure in a lot of stores I've shopped at. Most don't enforce it, but they all do have that requirement.

    • Everyone please beware if you are collecting an order at chemist warehouse.

      which the statement above is not really necessary

    Yeah, cause I'm running a scam on these two packs of 69c paracetamol!

  • Yeah, Chemist Warehouse is a dump & I avoid shopping there.

    My unpleasant Chem Warehouse incident involved me trying to buy 4 of the 20-capseal packs of Herron Paracetamol. The staff absolutely refused to sell me more than 2 packs because the computer system wouldn't allow it, and even the Pharmacist said that he couldn't override the system.

    Beyond a certain point, it is not worth putting up with s**t service just for cheap prices.

      Lmao why didn't they do separate transactions? Madness….

    • I had that problem for something where CW wouldn't sell me the quantity I wanted. I just said to them that I'll make it in separate transactions. They folded.
