(think families, children, frail elders) Fresha chooses to use the credit card name instead of the client name for transactions. Current situation .... Fresha deleted elderly (90yr +) client medical \& profile information and replaced with another younger client (early 60yr+) profile information Result: no address to the frail elderly client on round the clock care to drive to their home to provide services. no profile charts for this client. etc > > Issue has been discussed \& submitted for almost a year to Fresha. We are of the opinion that Fresha is not concerned that lives are being severely impacted (hospitalization, no appointments, no reminders, client name changes, etc) Fresha overrides client information if each and every client doesn't use an email, phone \& credit card unrelated to all other clients. - families \& elderly typically share this information to ensure appropriate transportation \& finances. ----- ### "Appointments, scheduling and notes | An all-in-one no-brainer app" — 5.0/5 > **Jorge** | *22 November 2023* | Alternative Medicine | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: First of all: FREE\! Second: Complete\! Third: take notes, upload pictures which is great for before/after pictures or medical exams, prescriptions, etc. Fourth: Patient notifications by e-mail and SMS... is that enough? > > **Cons**: I'd love to be able to edit the SMS reminder. I love the fact it has Portuguese as a language, since I'm based in Portugal. HOWEVER, the fact that it uses Portuguese from Brazil (as if that's even legit) is annoying. Words like "gerenciamento" and "oi" on a reminder for a health appointment in Portugal shouldn't exist if you want to look professional :( ----- ### "Where is customer service as a business beware" — 1.0/5 > **Catherine** | *31 January 2026* | Cosmetics | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: right now I can’t think of anything that is a con that they’ve provided me with fresh unfortunately has really left a bad taste of my mouth as a small business owner > > **Cons**: They like to charge a lot of extra fees on top of what you pay monthly fees wherever they can. You can’t cancel your own client appointments without them charging you. > > The worst customer experience I have ever experienced as a business First of all, we already pay $72 a month just for an online booking system with four users -the system only emails And texts our clients we have no additional services so how a company charges that to begin is insane I called them today because we got a $15 fee for a customer booking through the fresha market marketplace app which I understand. They deserve a commission for that but our client called us and asked us to cancel her appointment in which we did so. And apparently their policy is we need to ask the client to go and cancel online??? As a business owner, how do we just tell our client to do with themselves? The client calls for a reason something has come up there’s an emergency whatever the reason is we shouldn’t have to resort to tell our clients to go and do it Their selves. I called customer service and asked for a refund. They would not do it, they told me that was their policy. I will be cancelling my whole debit system and booking system with my salon with this company they like to charge everything that they absolutely can and there’s definitely just as good other companies out there for booking systems besides Fresha that does just the same. Please stay clear of this company. The customer service is lacking. ----- ### "Fraud and deception" — 1.0/5 > **Yousef** | *16 May 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: User interface is very good easy to use, calendar options and clear ways to mange the calendar. Good color for ayes > > **Cons**: Customer support is 0 out of 100, they are assigning a group of swindlers and fraudsters in the media east , and I tried all my best to reach the head office people but they are fully ignoring any communication from ME. ----- Page: 1 / 59\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/186610/shedul?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/186610/shedul) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
