  I asked to cancel this service over two years ago because I could never reach anyone there to help me set it up. They have continued to bill me even though I not accessed their services in that time. As it was on autopay I didnt realize they were continuing to bill me this year. Ive sent requests to cancel to their emails but they auto-respond it must go through the log-in (but clearly that didnt work the first time). There is no phone number or email for assistance, and the chat is an endless loop of non-answers. PLEASE HELP ME CANCEL THIS SERVICE and if possible be refunded for at least the past year of non-use. I notice no previous complaints have been answered, which is sad and unsurprising.

  Simple Practice raised subscription prices by 15% (with under a months notice) without providing services they agreed to provide. They noted timely customer service and my inquiries have gone unanswered for over a week. They are price gouging and taking advantage of subscribers.

  I am writing to express my deep frustration with the continued decline in service quality, coupled with yet another rate increase. Over the past several months, my team and I have encountered an increasing number of technical issues that have made the platform nearly unusable.Most notably:Telehealth Failures Today, my client and I were both logged in for a session, yet the platform failed to function properly. We provided screenshots as evidence, yet the only response I received was an email instructing me to call support. When I did, no one was available to assist me, and my issue remains unresolved.Obstructive *************** Simple Practice has made it increasingly difficult to add new team members. Each time I reach out for assistance, I receive the same generic response, implying that the issue lies with me or my team, rather than acknowledging or addressing the actual problem.Unjustified Price Increases Raising rates while simultaneously delivering subpar service and failing to resolve critical platform failures is simply unacceptable. If Simple Practice expects users to pay more, then the service should reflect that valuenot deteriorate into what now feels like an unreliable and exploitative system.Additionally, I have yet to receive a callback or meaningful follow-up regarding my unresolved telehealth issue. I expect a prompt resolution to these matters and a legitimate explanation for the ongoing technical failures before any further rate increases are imposed.Please escalate this issue immediately and provide a direct point of contact who can offer real solutions rather than automated responses.I look forward to your prompt response.

  They charged my credit card on 12/20/24 for *****. this did not include the referral discount or the ***** offer for the starter plan. Instead they informed me I was "randomly selected" for the ***** repackaged starter plan which they claim is better. But I don't want the additional items they packaged. They will not switch me to the plan I requested. And this is an ongoing charge twice what I wanted to pay. I haven't used the simple practice platform yet with a client, only to try to learn it. All I've done is pay the bill.

  I am an active customer of ********************** and have been since 2022. I stopped using their EHR in May 2024 due to horrible customer service interactions every time I reach out. I decreased my enrolled package down to the lower option which doesn't allow any claims to be submitted through their system. Dec 2024 (after not using their system outside of storage) for 3 months they claim I asked them to enroll me in ERAs and they took it upon themselves to do so without my permission or written requests. When I asked to have. a call from a supervisor I received an email at the end of their work day. (This is typical practice so any resolution is always days and days away) Meanwhile when SimplePractice did this without my permission it messed up my current and correct enrollments with my EHR. This means I can't reconcile my accounts for 2024. Additionally in order to fix this it will take HOURS of manpower ALL at the busiest time of the year for a small practice like mine. With the major mistake they have not shown where this was requested and simply are trying to convince me this is my fault. They don't care about the chain of events this has sparked and that a small practice will get buried under the weight of all of this. HORRIBLE COMPANY AND HORRIBLE PRACTICE. THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THEIR PAYING CUSTOMERS. ANYONE CONSIDERING SIGNING ON WITH THEM SHOULD CONSIDER THEIR BUSINESS AND IF THEY LIKE BEING BLINDSIDED BY A COMPANY THAT IS SUPPOSE TO ASSIST. AND WHEN THEY MESS UP, THEY WONT EVEN TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY OR HAVE THE COMMON COURTESY TO HAVE SUPERVISOR REACH OUT.

  We have been approved to ************* since June of 2024. We still cannot bill any of the claims because Simple practice is saying the "clearinghouse" - Eligible- is not moving our case along. We will lose money for timely filing very soon. They have "closed" the work order as "solved" but it isn't solved. They have been rude when I ask for an update telling me "I told you I'd let you know if I had an update." Yet, I'm paying for a service and they are NOT doing their job. Please help.

  I am filing a system error that occurred while trying to submit a claim- I am disappointed because simple-practice did not send me any updates to their system. Been using simple practice for over 18 months now and I tried submitting a claim- however, when submitting this claim- an error message occurred " This is the error message preventing me from submitting my claims to insurance company."Please correct the following errors on the claim. Billing provider address cannot be ** Box"This error message makes no sense considering, this the ** box address is my contract and all my previous claims has this address. Also, why are they providing me this error now and trying to prevent me from submitting my claims-further delaying my insurance claim payment and processing.. I need an explanation.

  We use this company's EHR system for our business, they provide us with a telehealth platform which is used for 90% of our business. 10/15/24 the system has become unusable. We have made a handful of helpdesk tickets reporting the problem. They require you to put in a ticket and then wait for assistance, after putting in numerous tickets with zero help, we decided to call to speak with someone on 10/27/24 still zero help, asking to speak to supervisors. Have had zero guidance on when it will be fixed, what is wrong, a work around nothing!!! We are a mental health company, we have clients in dire need of care, we are unable to assist them virtual without a HIPPA compliant platform. We have 38 providers on staff who all work ***** hours a week, this loss is detrimental to the business. I need this concern resolved and i need to be credited for the time and income loss. We have about 257 appointments a day.

  Simple Practice purchased *********, whom I was a customer of and whom I have the main complaint about. I was asked to purchase annual CPT code licenses less than 60 days before they announced their buy out. The buy out was not a "merger" but essentially Simple Practice purchasing client accounts as they closed Luminello down in June. There was no refund of the fees that I could not use bc they opted to shut the Luminello software down before the end of this year with the only option to transfer to SimplePractice, but the membership fees were more than double the cost of *********** for commensurate service plans. Even with 50% off for 2 months, this would create a 100% increase in cost for the remaining 4 months of the year with no other option than to lose the money already paid. I started asking questions via email about refund as soon as the announcement was made (5+ times) about the buyout and was never responded to until September 2024. I attempted to escalate and a manager was involved and essentially told me they would not refund the unused fees. The main issue about the unused fees is that their merger/buyout process was the entire reason these fees were unused with no commensurate way to get the service I had signed up for without doubling my monthly cost for services. I am asking for a refund of 1/2 of $152 dollars, or those funds that were unable to be used by me because of their lack of foresight in the buyout process to appropriately meet the needs of the existing ********* customers.

  I am writing to file a formal complaint against Simple Practice, a platform I use for managing my healthcare business. On August 24, 2024, a billing dispute was initiated by a disgruntled client regarding a transaction from four months ago. Subsequently, the same client filed two additional disputesone two days later and another today.Without conducting a proper investigation, Simple Practice withdrew $500.00 from my bank account, which included a $75.00 fee. I had explicitly requested that an investigation take place before any funds were removed from my account, but this request was not honored.Despite my repeated attempts to resolve this issue by contacting Simple Practice via phone, chat, and email, I have only been told that someone would reach out to me via email. I have also requested to speak with a manager to resolve this issue, but no one has contacted me *********** a small business owner, this situation has caused significant financial strain and disruption to my operations. I feel unsupported by Simple Practice, and my concerns as a client have not been addressed. I am left feeling penalized without cause, and there has been no resolution to this ongoing issue.I am seeking the BBB's assistance in resolving this matter. I request that Simple Practice immediately reverses the funds withdrawn from my account and conducts a thorough investigation into the billing disputes. Additionally, I ask for direct communication with a manager to ensure this issue is resolved promptly and fairly.Thank you for your attention to this matter.
