    I purchased the 'Total Box 14 Panel At Home STD Test Kit' (Order #******) on 06/09/2025 using my HSA card, relying on myLAB Box's prominent advertising that 'FSA/HSA cards accepted.' This was the sole reason for my *********** benefits administrator, TAG ***************** denied the transaction, stating the provided invoice lacked necessary IRS-compliant details (provider name, date of service, description, patient name, amount). Despite my immediate requests (starting 06/11/2025), myLAB Box has failed to provide a compliant invoice. They sent an 'itemized bill' on 06/11, which TAG *********** a direct result of this unresolved issue, TAG has suspended my HSA debit card. This causes severe personal hardship, as I am now unable to pay for essential prescriptions and other critical medical expenses. I cannot afford a $319.20 kit not covered by my HSA/FSA.I formally requested a full refund for the unopened, unused kit (06/30/2025). MyLAB Box initially offered only a partial refund ($29 deduction) citing a 'no returns' policy. I rejected this, emphasizing their misleading advertising. On 06/30/2025, myLAB Box stated they escalated my full refund request to management but I've received no further communication.MyLAB Box's failure to provide substantiation as advertised, and their refusal of a full refund for an unused kit that caused my benefits card suspension, is unacceptable. I seek a full refund of $319.20 to my original payment method so my HSA card can be reactivated. This is an urgent matter impacting my access to healthcare.

    Hello *****,

    Thank you for reaching out and expressing your concern.

    I can confirm that we do accept *** cards, as reflected by the successful purchase you were able to make. We truly appreciate you choosing our service.

    To keep our customers well-informed, we include a note on our website that mentions, There is no guarantee that your *** or HSA card will be accepted, as these cards may have varying rules and regulations. This helps ensure transparency, as acceptance can sometimes depend on the specific provider or card policy.

    Upon thorough investigation, we have provided the necessary documents for customers who requests a receipt to be submitted to *** or HSA which normally includes your order number, the product name, your name and shipping address, the name of the provider and the *** code for the kit that was purchased.

    As outlined in our company policy, if a refund is necessary, we would deduct $29 for the handling fee which is a fair price given that all of the information needed pertaining to the *** is available through our website.

    If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out to ********************************************************************

    Thank you!

    Your health advocate,

    Complaint: 23548940

    I am rejecting this response because: their statement contains inaccuracies and fails to address the core issue.

    Firstly, myLAB Box characterizes my transaction as a "successful purchase." This is inaccurate. A purchase that leads to the immediate suspension of my HSA debit card by my benefits administrator (TAG ***************** due to myLAB Box's inability to provide IRS-compliant documentation is, by definition, not a successful HSA-eligible purchase.

    Secondly, myLAB Box refers to a disclaimer on their website stating, "There is no guarantee that your *** or HSA card will be accepted..." While such a general disclaimer may exist elsewhere on their site, the product page for the 'Total Box 14 Panel At Home STD Test Kit' (Order #******) that I purchased prominently stated, "***/HSA cards accepted." There was no immediate asterisk, link, or clear notation on that specific product page to direct me to any such disclaimer at the point of purchase. Characterizing this as "transparency" is misleading, as the primary information I relied upon was the direct acceptance claim on the product page itself.

    Thirdly, myLAB Box claims they "have provided the necessary documents for customers who requests a receipt..." This is directly contradicted by my benefits administrator, TAG ***************** I submitted the 'itemized bill' myLAB Box provided on June 11, 2025. TAG explicitly denied it, stating, "under IRS guidelines, we are unable to make payment or substantiate claims from a credit card receipt. Please submit a detailed invoice showing date of service, service provided and charge amount." If myLAB Box possesses a CPT code or other 'necessary information' as ****** implies, it was not provided in an IRS-compliant format on the initial documentation, nor has it been provided despite my repeated requests. This ongoing failure to provide proper substantiation is the root cause of my HSA card suspension.

    Finally, their insistence on a $29 handling fee, claiming "all of the information needed pertaining to the *** is available through our website," is unacceptable. The crucial information was not made available to my benefits provider in an acceptable format, directly leading to the ineligibility and the severe personal hardship of my suspended HSA card. Their policy of deducting this fee, given that their own misleading advertisement and inadequate documentation caused this entire issue, is unfair.

    My HSA card remains suspended, preventing me from accessing essential medical care. I reiterate my demand for a full refund of $319.20 for the unused kit. This is the only resolution that will allow my HSA card to be reactivated and resolve the severe financial and medical distress myLAB Box's practices have caused.

    Sincerely,

    ***** ******

    1. Date of order: 12/24/24 - 9pm EST 2. Ordered an at-home ***************** kit 3. As of today, 1/8/25, I still haven't received shipping notification/tracking information. 4. I originally started communication with their customer service on 12/24/24 requesting the new customer 10% off (forgot to apply at check-out) - they responded and said they would apply the discount. 5. I emailed customer service again on 1/4/25 asking about the status of my order. They never responded so I emailed again on 1/7/25 asking for an update. They responded on 1/7/25 and said my order has shipped.6. On 1/7/25 I started to feel weird about this transaction and researched the company, finding several horrible reviews and BBB complaints. I emailed them again on 1/7/25 asking them to cancel my order and issue a full refund. 7. They emailed me on 1/8/25 saying that because my order shipped, they would have to deduct $29 from the refund. I responded saying that I have zero evidence of the order shipping. 8. There website says that 3-5 day shipping ships the next day. They claim in their emails with me that the holiday's caused delays. Regardless of the holidays, it's been 15 days since I placed my order and I have zero evidence of shipping.

    I purchased a MyLab Box kit in October 2024 and followed all their instructions. A week after sending in my sample, I was informed that the company had lost my information card. A week later, they told me my blood sample didnt have enough blood. They offered to send a replacement kit free of ********* November 2024, I hired a registered nurse to ensure the blood sample was sufficient and sent it in. By December 2024, I was informed they could not provide results for my second kit either and offered yet another replacement kit. Its now January 2025. Ive spent hours of my time, the initial cost of the kit, and still have no results.I requested a refund, which they refused, and I have nothing to show for my efforts. Some people may have success with this company, so I dont believe theyre a complete scam. However, based on my experience, I cannot recommend them. Even if they were to eventually provide results, I would not trust their accuracy given how poorly the company is run.

    I purchased 3 test kits on Nov 23. I initially was unable to register them on the website. I contacted company via email and they said they registered the kits for me and to send them all in together with the shipping label they provided. Per the tracking label, my package was received by their lab on December 9th. It is now December 31 and I still dont have any results. I have reached out via email to costumer service multiple times. In the beginning they said my order is processing. Then they said they would reach out to the lab for and update. Now Im not receiving any email response.

    Do not buy. I requested a refund within 2 hours as described on the website. They never responded. They leave threatening responses that more replies will just push your email down in the cue, which is untrue. I decided not to buy after reading so many awful reviews and sure enough, the bad customer service is definitely true! If this is how they handle just a simple question, think how they run the lab!

    I completed the MyLabBox for my bloodwork. Everything was a lie so far. Said it would take 5-10 days. Has been a few weeks now. Emailed them, and they said they would email in a 24hour period.

    I returned my test kit on November 30 and couldnt register the kit number on their website. I contacted customer service and they sent me another form to fill out and the kit was registered by them on December 3. On December 8th I reached out to find out if they had received the test kit as I forgot to write down the tracking number. December 10th I got a reply that they would look into it. December 12 I emailed again and no response. I found a phone number and left a message on December 13 as there was no live customer support.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
