    On 06/27/2025, I received an order from Nations OTC that should have contained 11 items. The order was incomplete - a $40 item was not included. After talking to Nations OTC Supervisor, I was informed that they go strictly by *** weight and that this claim was denied because the weight was determined correct for all the items that I ordered. At first I was told that this was strictly a call center and they had nothing to do with the packaging or labeling. Believing in accountability, I asked for the name of the company that packaged, and they finally admitted that it WAS their warehouse and their employees. The missing item was listed as 12" X 24". The box I received was a 10" X 8" box. This package had not been tampered with in any way, was professionally sealed, so in my opinion the problem was that the missing item had never been packed. However, Nations *** refuses to take responsibility and denied my claim.

    I have a ************ supplemental plan. Nations Benefits is the vendor that supplies the *** portion of plan. I started Hap in January 2025. I was supposed to receive a ********** to use for *** benefits . Each quarter I receive ****** dollars on the card. I called Nations Benefits on April 9 explaining I did not receive the card. I was told they will mail it again. On May 30 I called again because I never received it and they said they would mail another and verified they have the correct address. Never received it. Called a third time on June 10. I was told it was mailed. It is now June 24. Called today explaining I have an eye doctors appointment on July 2 and wanted to purchase glasses. I would have ****** on the Mastercard as of July 1 yet never received the card. I asked if they could send it another way. Overnight or fed ex. They said no. I asked how do I purchase the glasses with the card? Supervisor stated they didnt know. They asked if I spoke to the post office. The post office stated they have delivered all mail to my address and I find it hard to believe three cards mailed and its the post office problem. Nations benefit employee said the envelope looks like an advertisement. I knew this and told the *** I open all mail and do not have children. I will also file a complaint with Hap hoping one if these grievances will bring some answers. I have asked the supervisor I spoke with if I could contact the department that mails the cards out and she said she doesnt have access to that department. I asked if there is a CEO of nations benefits I could contact. I was told they dont know who that would be.

    I am rejecting this response because:  I never received the card. Since my initial complaint I contacted my insurance agent who then contacted *** and I believe Nation Benefit. I was told I will receive the card by July 12. It is July 17 and Still have not received ! I still have not ordered the glasses I need. I am requesting that the card be sent over night by a different carrier! I think waiting six months for a benefit I should have received deserves more than a repeat of whats been done ! Send it overnight!

    $75 dollars was put on benefit card #****************-****** ****** on 3/23/25. The Card was declined on 4-1-25 noting insufficient funds. Nations Benefits was notified on 4-01-25, 4-16-25, 4-16-25, and 4-30-25 of the problem. Nations Benefits informed me to contact the store- ****** in ******** to request a refund as the money had been deducted from the card. ****** noted that no funds were received. Anthem Health Keepers were informed of the problem on 5-5-25. A grievance was filed. Today, June 18, 2025, we finally learned that ****** did not withdraw the funds. I was informed that the $75 benefit for ***** was declined noting an invalid account. I was also informed that there is no way to receive the $75 benefit because all funds are to be used by the end of each month. Nations Benefits did not research the problem and is the reason funds were not available for use. The problem was reported in a timely manner with follow up to both Anthem and Nations Benefit who blamed Kroger. I lost a benefit that I was entitled to receive.

As a result, we are unable to honor your request, as the full benefit amount was exhausted. All transaction details are available for your review by logging into the member portal.

    Business Response

    Date: 05/16/2025

    We apologize for the experience. We can confirm that the declined transactions appearing on your account were due to attempts to purchase ineligible products. Product eligibility may vary depending on the vendor and factors such as brand, size, and quantity. To assist with identifying eligible items, our online portal includes a "Check Eligible Products" feature that allows members to search for specific product eligibility. Additionally, our IT team has identified a bug that is currently causing an error message during the registration process within the app. We are actively working to resolve this issue. Once resolved, the built-in item scanner feature in the Benefits Pro 2.0 app will also be available to verify product eligibility. We appreciate your patience as we work to address this matter promptly. If you have any further questions or require additional clarification, please do not hesitate to reply to this message.

    on 3/11/25 my local propane suppler attempted to charge the card for home heating propane. the card has been declined due to invalid merchant. We have attempted to correct this issue with NB for over two months now. **** propane is a home propane supplier for home heating. they are not listed as a approved vendor with NB. the attempts to add them as a vendor has been unresolved. **** has emailed them twice, talked with them on the phone and have been told numerous times that someone would call to resolve this issue. as of today (5/2/25) no resolve has been found. I have spoken to NB at least four times about this issue. each time I have been told it would be taken care of with in a week. so far I am still waiting. as of today the representative from ** has told me that the business is not an approved vendor and I could not even ask for reimbursement if I paid for it and requested one. the problem seems to be a "code" that comes up when the card is run. the representative would not give me a way to work with the department directly simply kept putting me on hold and emailing and messaging the correct ***** there has been a ticket issued for this complaint to no avail. All we are asking is that a home heating vendor be added as an approved ( utility ) vendor so they can be paid for the propane. Currently **** Propane is described and listed as a propane supplier. my benefits clearly state utilities as an approved charge. Home heating is clearly a essential utility.

    I called the customer service line to find out how to use their benefits card for Anthem BCBS ******** Advantage. I was told to download their app and use the scanner to scan barcodes. If the scan said 'product eligible' then it was good to go. I went to ******* and spent 30 minutes scanning the meal replacement products to find the eligible ones. I take $230 worth of eligible products to the register and NONE of them were covered. I tried different brands and different sizes because I knew there was going to be a problem with at least one of them. But no, literally none of them were covered. ******* tells me that they have no control over this. I called Nations Benefits and they tell me that they have no control over it. I ask why they even have a scanner if it means nothing at a register, but they continued telling me that there is just nothing they can do. So, now I have nearly $300 on a card that I was relying on to pay for these post-surgical, doctor ordered, otc, meals replacement shakes- but the money is essentially worthless for the things I need.

    Business Response

    Date: 05/01/2025

    We apologize for the experience. After reviewing your account, we can confirm that there are multiple declined transactions. These declines occurred for various reasons, including attempts to use the card with invalid merchants or for ineligible products.

    Complaint: 23219538

    I am rejecting this response because:

    There is no clear answer here. You state it's up to *******. ******* employees state it's up to you. Meanwhile, my choice is to purchase off of your website with incredibly inflated prices and limited product options, or take a ****** at *******'s register.

    After numerous phone calls to my insurer and Nations Benefits, I was assured that ******* is a participating merchant. I use your scanner inside the ******* store. Your tool indicates product eligibility specifically AT *******. Once at the register, I am told the items aren't covered. Where is your accountability for the wasted time and energy- not to mention the embarrassment of leaving a cart full of products?

    This is ridiculous and feels predatory towards ******** patients who are either elderly or disabled. Your rules are already forcing us to physically attend a ******* store rather than use convenient online shopping. I don't think ******* or Nations Benefits has a clear understanding of where and when I can use my card. Outside of your inflated website, I feel you should be able to provide specific and accurate instructions on product eligibility at a participating merchant. I will continue to reject your response until I am provided with this specific (and accurate) information.
    Sincerely,

    **** ********

    We apologize for the frustration this has caused and would like to provide more context as requested. The product eligibility tool is a guide provided by NationsBenefits, however the product eligibility determination is made at the point of sale. Please note that meal replacement shakes can be covered as either grocery or OTC depending on the retailer. We suggest attempting to purchase the item with another eligible retailer aside from ******* such as CVS or Walgreens. 
    We have also reviewed your account and found there has only been one purchase made at ******* last month which was approved. Your transaction history year to date does not reflect any declined purchases at *******. We hope this provides some additional clarity regarding your benefit.
